This document provides definitions and discussions on various indicators related to energy and climate change, including renewable energy production capacity, improved energy consumption in households, decrease in primary energy consumption of public buildings, number of users connected to smart grids, estimated decrease in greenhouse gas emissions, and more.

Common Indicators:Energy & Climate Change Definitions and Discussion Brussels, 22nd November 2012
Energy and Climate Change -1 (30) Additional capacity of renewable energy production, MW • Increase in energy production capacity of facilities using renewable energy resources, built/equipped by the project. Includes electricity and heat energy. • Renewable energy resource: Any energy source that is not fossil or nuclear.
Energy and Climate Change -2 (31) Number of households with improved energy consumption classification, households • Number of residential properties with improved energy classification – see Directive 2010/31/EU. Improved classification must be the direct effect of the project completion. • The classification system is governed by directive (2010/31/EU), with a deadline to work out more detailed rules by 30 June 2011 and transposition/application deadline of mid-2013 latest.
Energy and Climate Change -3 (32) Decrease of primary energy consumption of public buildings, kWh/year • Calculations are based on the energy certificate of buildings (see Art.12.1.b of Directive 2010/31/EU). In line with the deadlines set in the Directive, the indicator must apply to all public buildings above 500m2 total useful area and were reconstructed using Structural Funds assistance. If the construction starts after 9 July 2015, the threshold for public buildings decreases to 250m2 total useful area. The MA may include buildings in the calculation with less than 250m2 (or 500m2 before 9/7/2015).
Energy and Climate Change -4 (33) Number of additional energy users connected to smart grids, users • Smart grid: Electricity network that integrate the actions of energy users by exchanging digital information with the network operator or supplier. An energy user can be consumer, generator, or both.
Energy and Climate Change -5 (34) Estimated decrease of GHG, tons of CO2eq • This indicator is calculated for interventions directly aiming to increase renewable energy production (see indicator 30) or to decrease energy consumption (see indicators 31 and 32) thus its use is mandatory only where these indicators are relevant. Uses for other interventions with possible GHG impact are optional with methodology developed by the MA.
Energy and Climate Change -6 (34) Estimated decrease of GHG, tons of CO2eq • In case of renewable energy production, the estimate is based on the amount of primary energy produced by supported facilities. Renewable energy is supposed to be GHG neutral and replacing non-renewable energy production. GHG impact of non-renewable energy is estimated through the MS total GHG emission per unit of non-renewable energy production.
Energy and Climate Change -7 (34) Estimated decrease of GHG, tons of CO2eq • In case of energy saving measures, the estimate is based on the amount of primary energy saved through supported operations. Saved energy is supposed to be replacing non-renewable energy production. GHG impact of non-renewable energy is estimated through the MS total GHG emission per unit of non-renewable energy production.
