- 4. METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH: ENERGY EFFICIENCYTARGET COMPLIANCE How do we procure energy services? 1. Upfront market survey (level of interest). 2. Stakeholder consultations to analyze barriers and to go deeper into target analysis (sub-groups and unintended included). 3. Listing options for surmounting each of the main barriers. 4. Develop and test small procurements first. 5. Replicate and expand to scale up. 6. Make it durable through systems institutionalization (templates, budgeting models, incentives and sanctions schemes, targets and verification frameworks etc.) and further implementation. 4

Marina Turcati –October 1, 2015 … SO, LISTEN AND LEARN FROM THE “TARGETS” OF PUBLIC POLICY AND FROM THE POTENTIAL SUPPLIERS IS THE MAIN STEP TO BE TAKEN, SINCE IT IS BOTH FRUSTRATING AND DIFFICULT – AND THEREFORE PRICELESS – FOR POLICYMAKERS TO COMPREHEND WHY THE TARGETS OF POLICY DO NOT SEE THINGS THE SAME WAY THEY DO.

- 7. EE: THE MOREVALUABLE ENERGY IS THE ONE THAT WE DO NOT CONSUME NECESSITY • Fossil fuel will be prevalent for a long time • There are activities where the fossil products cannot be substituted SOUNDNESS • “No regrets” policy • “Low-hanging fruit” (vs. payback periods and upfront costs) IMPORTANCE • Considering the current rates of construction, demolition and renovation across Europe, the city of 2050 is now more than 70% built. Moreover, about 35% of the EU's buildings are over 50 years old. It is essential then the right choices are made now. • Leading role of public authorities (central Government) …HOWEVER, SO FAR COST-EFFECTIVE ENERGY SAVINGS POTENTIAL HAS NOT BEEN FULLY ACHIEVED. THE MARKET FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT PRODUCTS, BUILDINGS AND SERVICES IS NOT DEVELOPING QUICKLY ENOUGH TO MEET THE NEED FOR INCREASED UPTAKE OF THE ENERGY SAVINGS POTENTIAL.
