What has been the overall trend in final energy consumption of buildings in the EU since 2010?
What are the main drivers of the energy consumption variation, and in particular energy savings, for residential and service buildings?
These are the key questions answered during this (11th) webinar in the Odyssee-Mure on Energy Efficiency Academy.
Highlights from their research:
➢The energy consumption of buildings has steadily decreased since 2010 despite GDP growth.
➢There are large disparities in building performances across countries.
➢Since 2015, the rate of household energy efficiency improvements has dropped by 50% (compared to 2000-2014).
➢Energy efficiency of large electrical appliances, which has largely improved in the past, does not counterbalance anymore the rapid growth of the consumption of small appliances.

Recent IEA analyses on behind-the-meter energy system trendsLeonardo ENERGY
This webinar will present recent IEA analyses on “behind-the-meter” energy sector trends, including:
* why energy efficiency progress has been slowing,
* how increasing flexible load can help decarbonise the energy system, and
* mid-term projections for the growth in distributed solar PV.
The presentation will involve analysts from the IEA’s Energy Efficiency, Renewables and World Energy Outlook teams who will present findings from three of the agency’s flagship reports and answer questions from participants.

Residential and small commercial electricity consumers will provide most of the flexibility needed in the power system to achieve the energy transition at lower cost. This flexibility will allow the electricity grid to take on more renewables and need less grid reinforcements. Consumers are happy to participate (>75% opt-in rate) via an aggregator and be rewarded with energy savings reducing their electricity. Because it reduces the overall costs of running the energy system, it means that all consumers benefit from lower energy prices. The business case is now proven as more and more countries worldwide ensure demand side response can participate in wholesale markets as an alternative to generation and the EU has provided support through its recent Clean Energy Package. Pierre Bivas from Voltalis will share his experience of operating flexibility from more than 100,000 households in France, and now installing another 150,000, backed by the European Investment Bank, while also developing in other countries with local partners.
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.
This is the 13th edition of the Odyssee-Mure on Energy Efficiency Academy, and number 519 in the Leonardo ENERGY series. The recording of the live presentation can be found on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEAdYbI0wDI&list=PLUFRNkTrB5O_V155aGXfZ4b3R0fvT7sKz

Electrification in the energy transition: towards net-zero emissions by 2050Leonardo ENERGY
The European Green Deal envisions a carbon neutral Europe by 2050. Electrification is a powerful tool that can help catapult Europe’s energy transition forward. Accelerated changes are needed in the power, buildings and transport sectors, but they will fail to emerge without robust policies closely aligned with the decarbonisation goal.
In this webinar, Wouter Nijs of the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission and David Farnsworth of RAP delve into the role that electrification plays in different scenarios for meeting Europe’s climate goals.

Prior to the current soaring energy prices across Europe, the European Commission proposed, as part of the FitFor55 climate and energy package, the EU Social Climate Fund to mitigate the expected social impact of extending the EU ETS to transport and heating.
The report presented in this webinar provides an update of the European Energy Poverty Index, published for the first time in 2019, which shows the combined effect of energy and mobility poverty across Member States. Beyond the regular update of the index, the report provides analysis of the existing EU policy framework related to energy and transport poverty. France is used as a case study given the “yellow vest” movement, which was triggered by the proposed carbon tax on fuels.

Energy efficiency trends in transport in the EULeonardo ENERGY
After 6 years of regular decrease, the energy consumption of transport in the EU has been rising again since 2013, at the same rate as before the financial crisis. It has become the most energy-consuming end-use sector, responsible for 31% of the final energy consumption in the EU27 in 2019. The energy transition in transport lags far behind the other sectors. However, some countries are performing better than others.
During this webinar, our expert speakers present an evaluation of the energy efficiency trend in the European transport sector since 2000. The following key questions are addressed:
What has been the overall trend in transport energy consumption in the EU and other European countries since 2000?
What are the main drivers for the energy consumption variation in transport, and in particular for the energy savings?

The need to model coupled energy networks to transition to a decarbonized futureLeonardo ENERGY
Webinar recording at https://youtu.be/2A-aVb6OHTE
The coordination between planners and operators of coupled energy systems will allow the further integration of renewable energy sources in the electricity network by storing energy in fuel form over long periods of time using power-to-gas, the recovery and more efficient use of heat, and the decarbonization of industrial processes and transportation modes that can’t be electrified. Energy networks, such as electricity grids and natural gas pipeline networks, have traditionally been planned and operated independently. In order to enhance the integration and coordination of different energy networks, they must be planned and operated in coupled ways. Different energy networks have historically been and are still modelled by different tools. In this presentation we will discuss the need model coupled energy systems in a single framework and we will introduce encoord’s Scenario Analysis Interface for Energy Systems (SAInt), a software application to model, plan, and operate coupled energy networks.

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?

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.

Although the European Union had legislated in the area of energy policy for many years, the concept of introducing a mandatory and comprehensive European energy policy was for a long time not approved. With the Treaty of Lisbon this changed. The Treaty includes legal solidarity in matters of energy supply and gives the EU the right to change energy policy within the EU.
Following the adoption of the Kyoto protocol, the EU set out in implementing the greenhouse gas reductions goals. Given the flagship initiative at the time of Europe 2020, the climate and energy package that was proposed in 2007 and adopted in 2009 took the form of the 20 20 20 by 2020 goals. The package is a set of binding legislation to ensure the EU meets its climate and energy targets by the year 2020. It includes three key targets:
* 20% cut in greenhouse gas emissions (from 1990 levels)
* 20% of EU energy from renewables
* 20% improvement in energy efficiency
From Ugly Duckling to Superstar: how energy efficiency (almost) got to the to...FTI Consulting FR
Energy efficiency has long been promoted at European level. The European Commission has certainly made great efforts to support it and to ensure that energy savings can contribute to the EU’s energy priorities, namely reduction of carbon emissions, lowering of energy costs and increase of energy independence. The EU has introduced energy efficiency targets, created a regulatory framework to support energy efficiency and the uptake of energy efficient products and provided significant funding. However, so far energy efficiency has not lived up to its expectations, which is disappointing considering the huge amount of resources spent to promote it.
In this Energy Flash we look why the EU’s policies have so far have not had the desired effect, what is being done to change this and which sectors are best placed to benefit from the renewed efforts.
The report 'Trends and projections in Europe 2013' considers EU progress in meeting greenhouse gas emission reduction, renewable energy and energy efficiency targets.
This presentation summarises some of the main findings from the report. It was delivered by the Executive Director of the European Environment Agency (EEA), Hans Bruyninckx, at the Report's launch event on 9 October 2013.

It is widely recognised that there are substantial additional energy savings to be made from taking a system approach – considering how products are combined and operate together. However, political ambition has not resulted in regulation. During this workshop, policy makers and key stakeholders will discuss implementation barriers and explore possible remedies.
The European Copper Institute commissioned research to look into the experience with developing system related ecodesign and energy labelling regulations to date (Brocklehurst, 2021). In their review, the authors analysed the common characteristics and challenges related to ecodesign and energy labelling of eight product groups that, at least to some extent, go beyond a ‘simple’ product.
During this workshop, the authors will present the findings of their study. Policy makers will be invited to present their views on taking the systems approach in ongoing product regulation initiatives. During a debate, we will invite stakeholders to share their experiences and views on systems approach in product regulation. We will evaluate implementation barriers and explore possible remedies.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

5. Introduction
• Why is the building sector so relevant?
o In 2018, buildings account for:
- 43% of the final energy consumption and 60% of the
electricity consumption in the EU-28
- about 40% of the EU’s CO2 emissions related to energy
consumption
o The European Commission states that “currently, ~75% of the
building stock is energy inefficient yet almost 85-95% of today’s
buildings will still be in use in 2050.”*
➔ There is a specific need of ambitious policies and measures (PAMs)
focusing on buildings to:
➔ meet the targets set out for 2030
➔ making Europe climate neutral by 2050.

6. Introduction
Policies and measures (PAMs) designed at the
European level (EPDB, renovation wave, …)
are declined at the country level (for ex. long
term renovation strategies, NECPs…).
The monitoring of these PAMs using
appropriate indicators is an essential success
factor.
6Energy efficiency trends in buildings in the EU – December 8th, 2020
Such indicators help monitoring the impacts of PAMS at the EU or national
level. They may highlight the need to review the way PAMs have been
designed or their level of ambition.
In this presentation, we will present such indicators (Odyssee database)
showing trends of energy consumption and energy efficiency. Decomposition
analysis will be presented to explore the observed variations of energy
consumption in buildings over the last two decades.
8. Energy consumption : overview
8Energy efficiency trends in buildings in the EU – December 8th, 2020
In most European countries, buildings absorb the largest share of
consumption sector (43% at EU level).
Their consumption is stable since 2014 while GDP has risen by
~1.5%/year (2014-2019). This follows a decline of consumption after the
financial crisis (-1.5 %/year from 2008-2014).
Two thirds of the buildings consumption are for residential buildings.
At the EU level, the share of services has grown from 29% in 2000 to 33%
in 2008 and is rather stable since then.

In 2018, the average energy consumption in the EU is 1.3 toe/dwelling.
There are large disparities among countries, even after adjustment to the
same climate, ranging from 0.9 toe/dw in Portugal to 2.5 times more in
Luxembourg (2.5 toe/dw).
This unit consumption is decreasing in all countries since 2000 (-1.1%/year
on the EU scale), except in Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary and Italy.

Between 2000-2019, declining trends are observed for space heating, the
dominant end-use with 66% of the households consumption and cooking
(only 5% of the total) (-0,5/%year and -0.3%/year respectively).
Over the same period, growing trends are observed for appliances and
lighting (1%/year) and water heating (0.2%/year). In 2019, appliances and
lighting have overcome water heating. These end-uses now account for
15% and 14% of the households consumption, respectively.

How is measured energy efficiency
progress in ODYSSEE?
• Various energy efficiency indicators of specific consumption measured
in physical unit are calculated for buildings:
• by end–use for households
• by sub-sector for services.
• For households, we obtain different trends for the EU: 2%/year for
refrigerators, 1.8%/year for heating, 0.5%/year for water heating
etc….
• The question is how to measure the overall energy efficiency progress
at sector level?
• This is the objective of the energy efficiency index, called “ODEX”, that
is calculated separately for households and services in ODYSSEE.
Energy efficiency trends in buildings in the EU – December 8th, 2020
22. How is calculated ODEX?
• ODEX is calculated:
o First, by expressing trends in specific energy consumption by
end-use (or sub-sector), as an index of variation ;
o Then by calculating an average index for the sector weighted by
the share of each end-use (or sub-sector) in the sector’s energy
consumption.
• ODEX is presently calculated on the basis of 11 end-uses* or
appliances for households and 6 branches in services.
• As for each end-use, index of variation are used, specific
consumption can be expressed in different physical units so as to be
as close as possible to energy efficiency (e.g. for household: toe/m2
for heating, toe/household for water heating and cooking, kWh/dwelling
for lighting, kWh/appliance for appliances and cooling.

23. Energy efficiency trends for households
▪ ODEX equal 71 in 2019 ➔ households energy efficiency has improved by
29% at EU level between 2000 and 2019 (or 1.8%/year).
▪ However, there has been a significant slowdown since 2014, with progress
twice lower, mainly because of space heating, the largest end-use, and
also for water heating and cooking, whereas for large appliances and
lighting there is an intensification .

especially in Germany, France, UK and The Netherlands.
Several factors may explain this trend:
• Less new construction, that have very high energy efficiency performance:
the rate of construction has decreased by 35% since the financial crisis and
only represents every year 0.8% of the existing stock of dwellings (i.e. only
8% of new stock after 10 years);
• Less renovation although it is difficult to have consolidated data.
• Slower diffusion of efficient heating mode (condensing boiler, heat pumps)**.

25Energy efficiency trends in buildings in the EU – December 8th, 2020
▪ For water heating, the unit consumption reduction has significantly
slowed down in 3 large countries (France, Italy, Spain) and has even
reversed (i.e. increased) in 3 countries (Austria, Belgium, Romania).
▪ For cooking the rate of improvement has been divided by 3 since
2014, with an increase in re unit consumption in Germany, Italy,
Poland and Czech Rep.
▪ Are these changes linked to behaviors? We are lacking information to
monitor such trends
26. ▪ Since 2000, buildings have registered larger gains than transport or
industry.
▪ Energy efficiency improvements in services are mainly significant since
2014 (1.3%/year for services), and are even faster than for households
(1.1 %/year for since 2014)
▪ Such trends since 2014 can be compared with industry (0.9%/year) and
transport (0.4%/year).

▪ Annual additional energy savings are then calculated from the annual
variation of ODEX indicator.*
▪ Because of the slowing pace of energy efficiency improvement, the
annual additional savings have been decreasing by around 30% since
2014: from an average volume of 7.4 Mtoe/year over 2000-2013 to 5.3
Mtoe/year since 2014.

*ODEX is the ratio between the energy consumption and a fictive consumption that would have happened
without energy savings (ES): ODEX = E/(E+ES)*100 and ES = E x ((100/EEDEX)-1
28. In buildings, the cumulated annual energy savings since 2000 reached 130
Mtoe in 2019, which represents the equivalent of 29% of final energy
consumption in 2019. Without these savings the energy consumption of
buildings would have been 29% higher.
Households, the sector with the highest number of regulations and financial
measures, is over represented, with a share of total savings (41%) much higher
than its share in consumption (28%).

Energy efficiency trends in buildings in the EU – December 8th, 2020
Buildings’ consumption variation 2000-2019
• For households, the consumption decreased by 15 Mtoe: the increase in the
dwelling stock (more dwellings) and lifestyles (more appliances per
dwelling, larger homes) contributed to raise the consumption by 87 Mtoe.
Energy savings offset more than this increase by reducing consumption by
105 Mtoe.

2019 : early estimates
• For services, the consumption increased by 13.6 Mtoe: the activity
contributed to raise the consumption by 48 Mtoe. Energy savings only
decreased consumption by 25 Mtoe, and productivity by 26 Mtoe.

Conclusion : Key messages
• The energy consumption of buildings has steadily decreased
since 2010 despite GDP growth.
• Household energy efficiency improvements have been twice
slower since 2014 than before slowing down.
• This is mainly explained by thermal uses and in particular space
heating, due to a combination of factors (lower new
construction, and renovation, behaviour…), that are difficult to
grasp due to a lack of information.
• The energy efficiency of large electrical appliances continues to
improve rapidly; however this effect does not counterbalance
anymore the rapid growth of the consumption of small
appliances.
