Course on Regulation and Sustainable Energy in Developing Countries - Session 1Leonardo ENERGY
This session is devoted to the design of schemes for the large-scale dissemination of renewable energy technologies in developing countries. Market-based mechanisms overcome partly the limits of donor aid-projects. They build on public-private partnerships where a network of local entrepreneurs contributes to the maintenance of systems.
The example of solar home systems will be explained. Even if there are in many instances in parity with fossil fuels, small photovoltaic systems remain unaffordable for the majority of rural inhabitants without proper financial support mechanisms. But in the most active countries, the number of systems disseminated is now in the range of several ten thousands to several hundred thousands systems, thanks to the implementation of rural energy services companies.
Recent technological innovation could contribute to the acceleration of the diffusion of solar photovoltaic. The innovation introduced by the massive diffusion of mobile phones in developing countries tends simultaneously to create new markets for small photovoltaic systems and could improve the conditions for the diffusion of these systems by facilitating the daily management of these systems by rural energy services companies. Furthermore, Light Emitting Diodes (LED) technology opens new perspectives of self-sustained market diffusion.
The implementation of small rural energy services companies can also help to disseminate a wider range of products: LPG, cookstoves, biodigesters... New practices from rural energy providers tend to target more precisely the demand of end-users by combining the offer of photovoltaic systems with a variety of technologies to satisfy other energy needs than basic lighting in rural areas.
Concrete case studies from the dissemination of different renewable energy technologies in developing countries will be presented, notably in Zambia, South Africa, Bangladesh, China...
It will conclude with the institutional and regulatory framework that needs to be implemented to help rural energy services companies to thrive even in the most remote areas of developing countries.
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?

Energy and mobility poverty: Will the Social Climate Fund be enough to delive...Leonardo ENERGY
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 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

Course on Regulation and Sustainable Energy in Developing Countries - Session 9Leonardo ENERGY
Session 9 is devoted to Energy Services Companies (ESCOs). First, it introduces the Energy Performance Certificates concept and EPC contractual approaches. Then, it presents the need for measurement and verifications (M&V). It presents different ESCOs models:
the utility-based ESCOs with the cases of Croatia and Uruguay;
the Governement-based ESCO with the case of India;
the private sector ESCO with the case of China.
It concludes with the examples of institutional development schemes in Tunisia and Ivory Coast.
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.
* Presents the results of the European Power Quality Survey.
* Estimates costs of wastage generated by inadequate power quality.
* Involved interviews and web-based submissions over 2 years in 8 European countries.
* Concludes that PQ costs in Europe are responsible for a serious reduction in industrial performance.
* Economic impact exceeds €150bn.
A new generation of instruments and tools to monitor buildings performanceLeonardo ENERGY
What is the added value of monitoring the flexibility, comfort, and well-being of a building? How can occupants be better informed about the performance of their building? And how to optimize a building's maintenance?
The slides were presented during a webinar and roundtable with a focus on a new generation of instruments and tools to monitor buildings' performance, and their link with the Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) for buildings as introduced in the EU's Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD).

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.
http://www.leonardo-energy.org/webinar/3rd-photovoltaic-grid-parity-monitor-residential-consumers-session-1
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.
Lessons from renewable energy laws - how do countries legislate to support re...Leonardo ENERGY
With the increasing globalisation of the market for renewable energy technologies, it might be expected that this would also lead to national renewable energy laws becoming more similar. Yet, outside of the European Union this has not happened. Drawing from her study of every country in the world’s renewable energy laws, Associate Professor Crossley will explore how countries compete to attract investment via their legislation to support renewables to meet the needs of their domestic consumers and indigenous renewable energy sources. From the support of peat in Sweden, to local content clauses in China, and the impact of the bushfires in Australia, this webinar will examine the competing market drivers impacting the energy transition around the world.
Introduction to the Energy Efficiency DirectiveLeonardo ENERGY
The Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) was adopted in 2012 and is one of the EU’s four key Directives addressing energy efficiency in stationary (i.e. non transport) end-uses (the others being the Energy Performance in Buildings Directive, The Ecodesign Directive and the Energy Labelling Directive). Given that the other Directives cover the energy performance of buildings and equipment the EED is designed to address energy savings opportunities that are not readily addressed by the other Directives. It has its origin in the preceding Energy Services Directive, which was repealed when the EED was adopted. The Energy Efficiency Directive establishes a set of binding measures intended to help the EU reach its 20% energy efficiency target by 2020. Under the Directive, all EU countries are required to use energy more efficiently at all stages of the energy chain from its production to its final consumption. EU countries were required to transpose the Directive's provisions into their national laws by 5 June 2014.
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.

Resolution of the "Energy saving and energy efficiency for consumers" Conference within the scope of the project “Ushubo II: Be warm Kyrgyzstan!”
1. Resolution
Prepared by Participants of the
"Energy saving and energy efficiency for consumers" Conference
within the scope of the project “Ushubo II: Be warm Kyrgyzstan!”
March 15, 2016
"Evropa" Hotel, Bishkek
Participants of the conference "Energy saving and energy efficiency for Consumers",
which consisted of state representatives from the Kyrgyz government and other ministerial
agencies, power supply companies, civil society organizations, members from the energy
consumer advocate networks (CEAs), local government authorities, and representatives from
international financial institutions and the local media, considered the following points:
The nationwide information campaign " Ushubo II: Be warm, Kyrgyzstan!" which was
implemented by Unison Group in the winters of 2014/15 and 2015/16 and which
included more than 400 000 citizens, is received a successful and fruitful experience for
Kyrgyzstan.
Energy efficiency approaches need to be more holistic and take into consideration not
only physical energy losses (through walls, roods and windows) but also behavioral
aspects, such as habits and household budgeting.
Campaigns such as Ushubo II produce tangible benefits for a large part of the Kyrgyz
population: They reach out to more than 80,000 people; lead to increased family budget
savings (amounting to around 500,000 Soms in total each year); reduce energy demand
(amounting to 421,297 kWh each year); and protect the rights of local energy
consumers.
Direct communication with the public, for instance by means of joint activities at the
national level, are an effective tool in the Kyrgyz context.
The current energy situation in Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia requires immediate response
and requires a greater push for energy-saving technologies which could significantly
contribute to the energy sector development and energy security.
Based on these considerations, discussed the following issues to further improve the joint
action on energy efficiency and energy conservation in Kyrgyzstan:
Experience and activities carried out by Unison Group during the Ushubo II
campaign: public lectures in more than 1,000 localities; pilot projects with thermal
insulation of three building, training and business development on widespread
technologies and basic devices to retain heat and (such as thermos-tuyunchoks or candle
heaters);
2. Opportunities and the timely development of the new energy consumer portal
http://energy.unison.kg/, which was developed for Kyrgyz consumers and which
provides comprehensive information on the five areas of energy supply and use and fuel
supply and electricity quality
CEAs/ZPPE: Participants discussed the experience of protecting energy consumer
rights through CEAs who have been operating since 2010 and mediate between the
government, the energy supply companies and local communities. This approach is
perceived as being effective in eliminating grassroots corruption and improving the
population’s understanding and participation in socially important decisions in the
energy sector, supporting 7,000 households across the country to receive altogether
more than 9 million Kyrgyz Som from unjustified fines and penalties.
Quality Service Centers: Participants shared their experiences and existing practices
of quality service centers in energy distribution companies. This has had a positive effect
on the energy companies and has helped them to deal with complaints and clarifying the
issues of consumers on-site.
Conventional fuels: Participants discussed fuel supply problems, the existence of coal
burning ovens in state and public buildings, installation of coal-based heating stoves in
both private and public buildings, awareness on technical specifics of coal use and the
general need to spread more information and awareness about this issue.
Project impact: Together with the results of awareness raising, more around 270
families of the village of Avletim of Ak-Suu district of the Djalal- Abad oblast now
receive access to quality electricity supply.
Based on these considerations and discussions, the participants agreed on the following:
Recommendations for the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic:
Include the energy saving and energy efficiency issues into the developing draft of
the Decree of the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic on improving the procedures for
the preparation for the autumn-winter period (AWP) with obligatory focus on the
population segment and all its needs on energy consumption from the point of view
single system;
Consider a joint coordination among all stakeholders on issues such as energy
saving and energy efficiency through the creation of dialogue platforms that allow for
the inclusion of various stakeholders (instead of limiting it to government staffs
responsible for preparation for the autumn-winter period (AWP)). This dialogue
platform should be in compliance with the objectives set forth in the "Programme of the
Government of the Kyrgyz Republic on energy conservation and planning policy energy
efficiency in the Kyrgyz Republic for 2015-2017 years"
Provide education and training programs for energy efficiency and conservation
specialists (such as master fitters, foremen, etc.), and offer them opportunities to
improve their cooperation with end users, via the authorities of the Ministry of
Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic,
Provide support to local authorities on implementation of the demonstration and existing
energy efficient projects at the level of the budget and public buildings;
Examine the experience of financing energy efficiency measures in public buildings and
homes, and create a revolving fund in Kyrgyzstan involving all parties (private
investment, energy companies and energy service companies, etc.) With the use of
3. existing (successful and unsuccessful) investment experience and piloting of such
initiatives;
Strengthen and expand awareness and knowledge of the population by:
a. Introducing clear, simple, broad and permanent information / training
campaigns, especially in remote, rural areas,
b. review mechanism for public information through local governments,
excluding the presence of "regular" participants of the events and selective
collection of the population, and
c. use popular media channels such as radio, television, web portals, to
provide specific and locally adapted recommendations, and designate
specially-allotted time for public awareness raising
Support initiatives to attract and implement investments in the private housing sector
for energy conservation and efficiency and to overcome barriers such as high cost of
renewable technology and lack of financing access by the population,
Promote best practices such as "Kyrgyz Sustainable Energy Financing Facility
(KyrSEFF)" which has provided efficient scheme of credit line with grant support from
EU worth 20 million USD for energy efficiency measures in 600 projects achieving
103 000 MWh/year of energy savings in total
Provide assistance and support to initiatives that aim to develop and promote the
available information sources (specialized web portals, software, mobile applications,
video channels, systematic videos, etc.) to promote energy conservation and efficiency
(and related matters);
To support initiatives that raise awareness and facilitate knowledge transfer on energy
efficiency and energy saving by means of direct dialogue.
Recommendations for the electricity companies:
Consider the experience of CCA activities in the distribution companies and:
a. clearly identify the authority and delineate the public helpdesk, press
office, and customer service quality supervisory commission;
b. clearly define the term of "electricity quality" and "quality of service", and
make adjustments to the regulations;
c. issue indicators and customer service criteria, such as time, address, as
well as quantitative (decided and clarified questions) and qualitative
reports (on the quality of electricity and quality of service) on the centers
of quality of supply in the field of public relations;
review the structure and clearly define the status of the distribution centers in terms of
service quality and accountability to enhance the independence of their decisions1
.
Inform energy consumers in a timely manner about planned power outages, duration
of electricity supply interruption, ongoing repair and maintenance work, and general
progress.
Introduce a designated department within the JSC National Energy Holding Company,
with the following tasks:
a. fill information void concerning responsibility and energy end-consumer
rights by preparing specialized information and issue statements;
b. communicate with the population and the operational solution of addresses
from consumers;
1 1 Transparency and accountability in the electricity industry: a collection of analytical materials // Under
edition N.Abdyrasulova, Public Foundation "Unison" ‐ B .: 2012 ‐ 165 s, 23‐31 s..
4. Promote public awareness initiatives, providing specific tools and data in the area of
competence for the end users, using all available media and existing sites
(http://energy.unison.kg/ portal for consumers),
Recommendations for the civil society organizations:
Take regular active participation in decision-making during the discussion of
preparation for AWP , and monitoring of its passage,
Consider the use of efficient tools of the mechanisms such as the information
campaign "Be warm, Kyrgyzstan" and apply these to related issues of energy
saving and fuel supply, adapting them to the audience and local circumstances.
Recommendations for the media:
Collaborate with civil society organizations for the timely and free of cost provision
of information to energy consumers, taking into account the necessity and urgency
of locally adapted guidelines for the population (as set out in the portal for
consumers).
Participants of the conference have entrusted the distribution of the resolution to the
