Europe has a large public housing sector, about 15-20 percent of the housing stock, where very little is known about the financial outcomes of energy-efficiency investments in the building sector. In this slidedeck, Andrea Chegut and Rogier Holtermans present the financial outcomes of energy-efficiency investments in the public housing sector.
The European Commission has big goals to reduce total energy consumption. To achieve that goal, regulatory nudges and financial investments are striving towards increasing the energy-efficiency of the housing sector. As part of that goal, the Building Energy Efficiency for Massive Market Uptake (BEEM-Up) Program, an EU 7thFramework Program project, delivers some first results on the engineering feasibility and financial performance of existing building retrofits that reduce primary energy demand in buildings by 75 percent.
Academically this is also very interesting as to date, studies using measurement tools like Energy Performance Certificates document a positive impact from high energy-efficiency in buildings on their transaction or rental value in residential and commercial real estate markets. However, most of these studies focus on the private housing or commercial real estate markets. This webinar, shares the financial performance and feasibility of energy-efficiency for the public housing sector.
Energy efficiency first – retrofitting the building stock finalLeonardo ENERGY
Retrofitting the building stock is a challenging undertaking in many respects - including costs. Can it nevertheless qualify as a measure under the Energy Efficiency First principle? Which methods can be applied for the assessment and what are the results in terms of the cost-effectiveness of retrofitting the entire residential building stock? How do the results differ for minimization of energy use, CO2 emissions and costs? And which policy conclusions can be drawn?

Five actions fit for 55: streamlining energy savings calculationsLeonardo ENERGY
During the first year of the H2020 project streamSAVE, multiple activities were organized to support countries in developing savings estimations under Art.3 and Art.7 of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED).
A fascinating output of the project so far is the “Guidance on Standardized saving methodologies (energy, CO2 and costs)” for a first round of five so-called Priority Actions. This Guidance will assist EU member states in more accurately calculating savings for a set of new energy efficiency actions.
This webinar presents this Guidance and other project findings to the broader community, including industry and markets.

Access to energy is at the heart of the economic development of any country. This slide shows the fundamental differences between renewable and non-renewable energy sources. To cope with climate change and to guarantee the planet survival, the world needs to take urgent action. In this scenario, solar energy is leading the energy shift. Furthermore, with declining investments cost, producing solar electricity for the purpose of self-consumption is on the rise. A solar self- consumption installation uses the PV electricity generated on-site to meet the energy needs of the consumer while minimizing or excluding the use of electricity from the utility grid.
At the scale of a town district, a community solar self-consumption project is not only possible technically and legally, but also financially viable today.
In this article, we will discuss ‘allocation keys’ to break down the energy produced between the various participating consumers in order to obtain the desired balance between redistribution of benefits to those who truly consume solar energy and profitability for the investor.

The webinar will review results from academic evaluations of energy efficiency and climate mitigation policies that have targeted energy-intensive industry on EU and Member State level. The EU emissions trading system, by some portrayed as Europe´s flagship policy to tackle climate change, has had little effect in triggering innovative low-carbon solutions. Other policy approaches taken by Member States have centred on site-level energy management practices linked with national incentives and obligations that stimulates industrial energy efficiency as a strategy aiming at multiple objectives. Remarks are also made about policy design and the role of evaluation to foster policy improvements.

This webinar is dedicated to the findings of the 3rd issue of the PV Grid Parity Monitor for Residential Consumers.
The Photovoltaic Grid Parity Monitor analyses PV competitiveness with retail electricity prices for residential consumers and assesses local regulation for self-consumption of 21 cities in 12 countries (Australia, Brazil, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, Israel, Japan, Mexico, Spain, UK, USA).
It is based on a rigorous and transparent methodology and has used real and updated data provided by local PV installers, local PV associations and other reliable players from the PV industry. A specific and in-depth analysis of retail electricity rates for each of the 21 cities is included.
Given that PV Grid Parity represents a unique opportunity to develop a local and sustainable power generation technology in a cost-effective way, this Monitor aims at giving benchmark elements and good practice models to foster the development of this technology.

Energy Sufficiency Indicators and Policies (Lea Gynther, Motiva)Leonardo ENERGY
This policy brief looks at questions ‘how to measure energy sufficiency’, ‘which policies and measures can be used to address energy sufficiency’ and ‘how they are used in Europe today’.
Energy sufficiency refers to a situation where everyone has access to the energy services they need, whilst the impacts of the energy system do not exceed environmental limits. The level of ambition needed to address energy sufficiency is higher than in the case of energy efficiency.

Energy efficiency: a profit center for companies! Leonardo ENERGY
Investments in energy efficiency not only result in a reduction of energy consumption —the ener-gy benefit— but they also entail non-energy benefits such as improved product quality, reduced production time or improved comfort in sales area. Non-energy benefits significantly improve the business case of energy-efficiency investments in the business sector by raising their strategic character.
Within this context, the aim of this webinar is to discuss a methodology to describe and analyze the industrial non-energy benefits of energy efficiency. Linking energy, operational, strategic and fi-nancial aspects, this new conceptual framework enables to move away from the common view of energy as a commodity (where the only goal is to save kilowatt-hours) to adopt a new perspective on energy and energy services as strategic value for businesses.
This methodology will be further developed and documented by Task 26 Multiple Benefits of Ener-gy Efficiency, a project of IEA Demand Side Management Energy Efficiency Technology Collabora-tion Program, in close collaboration with practitioners, academic researchers and public program-mers. People or Institutions interested by Task 26 are most welcome to contact me.
Multiple benefits will also be discussed in-depth with a panel at this year’s IEPPEC June 7-9 Am-sterdam.

Jochem E. et al (2002) Steps towards a 2000 Watt-Society. Developing a White Paper on Research & Development of Energy-Efficient Technologies - Executive Summary - 19 p.
Executive summary
In the coming decades, the threat and consequences of
climate change and of the re-concentration of crude oil
production in the Near East will compel industrialised nations
to make much more efficient use of energy. R&D that helps
realise energy efficiency potentials is likely to be regarded as
important in scientific, entrepreneurial, and political realms.
Demand for highly energy-efficient technologies will rise
steeply, and firms that can provide them will prosper. The
identification of energy-efficient technologies and related
energy conservation potentials undertaken in this pre-study is
a first step toward designing a R&D strategy that is consistent
with the need to evolve towards a 2000 Watt per capita society.
Reaching this level by 2050 implies reducing primary energy
use from 1200 to 460 PJ per year, despite a projected 65%
economic expansion.

ECCE Webinar: The Value of Energy-Efficiency in the Housing Sector
1. The Value of Energy-Efficiency in the Housing
Sector
Transforming Uncertainty around ‘Green’ into
Measurable Value, Costs and Risk in the Marketplace
Andrea Chegut and Rogier Holtermans
May 15, 2014
European Center for Corporate Engagement – Webinar Series
2. Carbon, Energy and Resource Costs within
Europe
Buildings are a large source of carbon emissions
• Europe’s buildings emit 36 percent of CO2 (ECF, 2014)
• Housing emits 630 billion kg of CO2 in 2010 (Eurostat, 2013; Bertoldi et al., 2012)
Energy is costly
• 27 percent of energy use in the EU-27 stems from the residential sector
• 2010 energy bill of €225 billion (Eurostat, 2013; Bertoldi et al., 2012; Carbon Trust,
2013)
• Electricty prices increase by 3.9 percent and gas prices by 7.4 percent per
year (Eurostat, 2014)
• Energy 10 percent of total housing costs
Real estate consumes resources (EPA, 2009)
• 30 percent of raw materials use
• 30 percent of waste output
• 12 percent of potable water consumption
4. Uncertainty around “green” and its value
Lack of measuring and pricing…slows diffusion
• Transparency requirements… energy labels
• Pricing energy-efficiency in buildings…
• Transforming R&D into real companies and commercially diffused
solutions…takes time
Disaggregate outcomes of energy-efficiency
• The intensive calculations and design ideas that go into a green
buildings are lost…engineers keep them
• Energy performance models and their role in operational risks are
missing…
• Lacking the bigger picture, disaggregated outcomes of property
owners
Financial performance is missing
• Investors will not move until they understand financial performance
• Green buildings are complex developments and
redevelopments…there is a learning curve
5. Regulatory nudges and R&D investment in
the EU
Framework
• Energy Performance of Buildings Directive 2003, 2010, 2012
– Minimum energy-efficiency requirements for new and existing buildings
– Certification of energy performance…EPC labels
• Energy Efficiency Plan 2011
Proving the concept…diffusing innovation
• EU 7th Framework Programs for energy-efficiency
– Targeted at the existing building stock to generate new technology for
retrofits
– At least 20 programs to execute R&D, investment in pilot projects and
financing for the housing sector
• Horizon 2020…€80 billion stimulus package
– 20% reduction in GHG emissions
– 20% of energy from renewable resources
– 20% increase in energy-efficiency
6. Building Energy-Efficiency for Massive Market Uptake

8. Financial challenges and opportunities – BEEM –
Up Pilots
• Scale of the problem: size of the SPC stock is large (Wallbaum et al., 2014)
– Scaling the 75 percent reduction is viable in some housing cohorts…identifying
these is critical
• Energy efficient dwellings transact for more (Chegut, Eichholtz, Hotlermans, van
Marwijk, 2014)
– Academic evidence around the globe suggests a premium for energy-efficient
properties
– For Dutch social housing the same is also true
– We estimate that the most efficient homes trade for 12 percent more per square
meter than a matched sample of energy-inefficient homes
• Learning about the financial performance of energy-efficient social, public and
cooperative housing (Chegut, Eichholtz, Holtermans, Kok and Tausendschön, 2014)
– Life cycle cost analysis discloses each demonstration sites sensitivity to
institutional risks within the SPC housing sector
– Projected NPVs are zero or positive, but some scenarios expose the project to
higher downside risks
• Financing opportunities (Bastiaanssen and Zietara, 2014)
– Financing gap for 75 percent reduction in primary energy demand for the SPC
12. Current situation (EIU, 2013)
• 40 percent of the building stock constructed before 1960 and is in
need of renovation
• New construction represents only about 1 percent of the building
stock
• Refurbishment rates are low at approximately 1 percent of the
building stock
Scaling up…building typology based on
• Construction period
• Building type: single-family housing, multi-family housing, apartment
blocks, terraced houses
European building stock
Applying the Swedish retrofit to Austria:
• Total building stock of more than 400 million m2
• 16 percent of which is multi-family housing with more than 63 million
m2
• Retrofit would reduce primary energy demand by 61 percent

quality, etc.;
– Gi = EPC variable indicating the energy-efficiency of the
home;
– α, β, and δ are estimated coefficients;
– ε is an error term.

20. Financing a 75 percent reduction in primary
energy demand
21. Where does energy-efficiency show up?
In the cash flows
• Increased rents – stemming from increased demand from tenants
• Increased transaction prices – stemming from increased demand in
the capital markets
• Decreased vacancy rates – higher occupancy rates in green
buildings
• Increased cash subsidies – from governments and agencies seeking
carbon reduction
In the operational expenditures
• The operating performance – decreased cost of energy
• However, also in potentially other dimensions – water and waste
• Capital improvement expenditures – changing the extent of
maintenance
In the Interest, Taxes, Depreciation (new areas where research is
moving)
• Financing the building investment– the risk as the building owner
and the risk from the bank
23. BEEM-Up EU 7th framework program

Measuring green returns through 300 plus building retrofits
75 percent improvement in energy-efficiency
Projected values of the pilot sites
Across 37dimensions and simulated across 165,000 plus
scenarios
3 pilot
sites
• Projecting Future Cash Flows
• Future Energy Risks
• Future Changes in Subsidies
• Future Cash Flow Losses and Gains
• Within each country’s institutional
24. DCF procedure across many scenarios
Geltner, Miller, Clayton, Eichholtz, (2013) application to real
estate
• Mathematically, the DCF procedure can be written as follows where
V = value of the investment today.
• Where:
– CFt = Net cash flow generated by the property in period “t”;
– V = Property value at the end of period “t”;
– E0[r] = Expected average multi-period return (per period) as of
time “zero” (the present), also known as “going-in IRR”;
– T = The terminal period in the expected investment holding
period, such that CFT would include the re-sale value of the
property at that time, in addition to normal operating cash flow.
27. Projecting the future value of “green”
Opportunities from energy-efficiency
• Resale energy-efficiency unit retrofits
• Upside sharing in energy savings
• Property taxes are deferred for the
property for about 5 years
• Maximum decreases in energy, waste
and water inefficiencies in operating
expenditures
• NPVs are 0/positive
• Less potential for downside risks to occur
Challenges from energy-efficiency
• No rent increase because of institutions
• Energy cost could stay constant
• No subsidies from governments despite
higher retrofit costs
• Capital market demand is not higher for
energy-efficiency
• NPVs are 0/positive, but these risks
expose you to higher downside losses
28. How do we get the BEEM-Up concept diffused across
Europe
29. Energy refurbishment for sustainable housing in
Europe
(Bastiaanssen and Zietara, 2014)
• Questionnaire and interviews of national SPC housing
associations
– Investigating the supply of capital for energy-efficiency
retrofits
– Actual and projected annual refurbishment rates by
housing associations
• Covering 60% of EU-27
• Supported by data from the BEEM-UP project
The survey reflects the best estimates by experts at the
time of the interview, it does not reflect the formal position
of participating experts, nor the organization they represent

31. Investing in energy efficiency
Social, public and cooperative
housing institutions forecast
• 1,4% refurbishment rate per
annum
• Average reduction in primary
energy demand of 40%
• Investments up to €13,6 billion
per year
Policy ambition: 20% energy
reduction target by 2020
• 2% refurbishment rate per
annum
• Average reduction in primary
energy demand of 65%
• Requires an estimated
investment of €37,8 billion per
year
32. The economics dof “green” in Europe
Appraisals of ´green investments´
• Green investments not properly valued; asset-backed investments
limited
Training for housing professionals
• Financial engineering and retrofitting project management
Applied research
• Low-costs technologies for the improvement of energy efficiency
and renewable energies in housing, focus on prefabricated modules
European Housing Fund
• Facilitate low-cost, long-term financing of housing retrofits
Reduce threshold to access financing
• Many SPC entities invest in €10-25M range
Continue ELENA grants for technical support
• Current technical capacity limited in SPC companies
– ELENA successful in mobilizing major and more ambitious
renovations
33. Making a dent in “green” uncertainty
Europe aims to prove the concept of energy-efficiency
• Is investing another €80 billion in R&D
BEEM-Up project aims to combine stakeholders to achieve a 75
percent reduction in primary energy demand
• Challenges and opportunities are present
Today, we addressed some outcomes of the project from a
finance perspective
• There is a large building stock that can undertake these
retrofits
• The performance of these retrofitted homes to at least a 75
percent reduction transact for 12 percent more in the market
place
• Using this and other assumptions leads to on average zero or
positive NPV projects
Where do we go from here…
• Address the financing gap in the EU of at least €181 billion
• Reduce thresholds to access financing
