Entrepreneurship can play a very important role in the energy transition. In the Users Technology Collaboration Programme’s Annex ‘ Service Supporting Energy Service Business Models and Systems’. We have investigated how more radical business models and entrepreneurial journeys are shaped by the institutional context within which they aim to scale up and how these entrepreneurs in turn also shape the system and contribute to system change with their business models.
Energy Efficiency Obligations – A Toolkit for successLeonardo ENERGY
Energy Efficiency Obligations (EEOs) are a strong driver of energy savings in Europe and around the world. Many Member States have chosen EEOs as an important policy to support compli-ance with Article 7 of the Energy Efficiency Directive. This webinar draws on the recently pub-lished “Toolkit for Energy Efficiency Obligations” to discuss elements of EEO design, and specif-ically to answer: What are the main considerations for designing, implementing, and (over time) improving EEOs? What are examples of best practices that have led to successful schemes? And what are some of the most frequent barriers and how might they be over-come?

Policy recommendations for the Clean Energy package based on IndustRE project...Leonardo ENERGY
This webinar provides a number of policy recommendations based on the various barriers found across the six countries analysed by the IndustRE project. Such recommendations should be useful in the framework of the ongoing discussions on market design at European level.
IndustRE project has identified the flexibility potential of the industrial electricity demand as an opportunity that - through innovative business models - can facilitate further growth and integration of variable renewable energy, while reducing the industrial electricity costs. In this project the electricity intensive industry in Europe works closely with the renewable energy sector in order to find common ground and create win-win situations.

Het Koninklijk Instituut Van Ingenieurs (KIVI) organiseerde op 12 november het Jaarcongres Stad in de Delta. Daarbij stond de toekomst van steden aan de kust centraal: hoe zorgen we ervoor dat deze steden droog, leefbaar, duurzaam, veilig en bereikbaar blijven? Een complexe vraag, waarbij slimme ICT-oplossingen een grote spelen. Niet vreemd dus dat CGI bij dit congres een presentatie mocht houden. Joris Knigge ging tijdens deze presentatie op de vraag waarom we nu al moeten ‘voorsorteren’ op de komst van nieuwe slimmere energienetwerken. Een van de redenen hiervoor is dat het elektriciteitsgebruik de komende jaren gaat stijgen, onder meer als gevolg van het grotere aanbod aan elektrische vervoermiddelen. Dat levert naast uitdagingen ook kansen op. Want hoe beter de balans tussen vraag en aanbod, des te betaalbaarder wordt energie. Een overschot aan zonne-energie rond het middaguur zou bijvoorbeeld heel goed geabsorbeerd kunnen worden door elektrische auto’s.

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.

Ensuring effective delivery of EU energy efficiency targets - monitoring and ...Leonardo ENERGY
The European Union’s so-called ‘Winter Package’ sets out an ambitious trajectory for energy efficiency for the period after 2020. Reaching the energy efficiency targets requires not only new policies but also a rigorous monitoring and verification regime at the national level. Otherwise there is a risk that many of the claimed energy savings exist only on paper. Two countries with a sophisticated monitoring and verification policy in place (Austria and Ireland) will share their experiences of how to set up effective systems to ensure that energy efficiency improvements are being delivered effectively.
A policy perspective on Building Automation and Control Systems (BACS)Leonardo ENERGY
Improved management of technical building systems (TBS) can offer a cost-effective potential to reduce building energy consumption, improve the quality of life of occupants and facilitate the integration of renewable energy systems by providing flexibility to the connected energy grids.
Multiple policy initiatives related to BACS currently exist or are under development. This presentation will give an overview and some examples of European policy tools and/or local implementations. The most relevant policy tools that can help contribute accessing these savings potentials are the Energy Performance in Buildings Directive (EPBD), the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED), Ecodesign Directive (ED) and Energy Labelling Regulation (ELR).
Some examples of existing policy will be given and reference will be made to the recently completed Smart Readiness Indicator study and the ongoing Ecodesign BACS preparatory study.
The scope for energy savings from energy managementLeonardo ENERGY
Energy management is a structured process through which organisations seek to optimise their energy use and whose definition and practice is codified through standards such as EN ISO 50001. It is an essential tool to deliver systemic level savings in how energy using capital is chosen and deployed but also, and importantly, with respect to how that capital is actually operated and managed. Despite its importance to overcome some of the more intractable barriers to energy efficiency it has received relatively modest attention within EU policy portfolios.

Course on Regulation and Sustainable Energy in Developing Countries - Session...Leonardo ENERGY
This session is devoted to the design of feed-in tariff schemes for the large-scale dissemination of on-grid renewable energy technologies in developing countries. More than 50 countries have adopted a feed-in tariff both in developed and developing countries.
Designed carefully, feed-in tariff laws are considered to be one the most cost-effective measure to support renewable energy technologies. In the case of developing countries, there is a need to balance conflicting priorities, especially when it comes to national development objectives such as health, education, employment etc, whereby environmental issues can often be considered as secondary. Therefore the complementary benefits that renewables can bring and the cost of mechanisms to support renewable energy technologies needs to be weighed; renewable energy policies need to be linked to development policies.
After a brief introduction on the motivations to introduce renewable energy policies in developing countries, the session 3 examines the way to design and implement effective feed-in tariff: how to determine the eligible producer and technologies, how to calculated support levels, how to differentiate tariff payment, when to revise tariffs and plan tariff degression, etc.
Energy Solutions: Examining the energy solutions approach provided by Utility...4 All of Us
This workshop will focus on the types of energy procurement available including fixed, flexible,
portfolio and semi-flexible contracts. The aim is to guide you through the energy monitoring and
reduction services that are available to reduce consumption and associated costs, whilst providing
information on legislative obligations within the education sector. We will also discuss recent
examples of energy solutions implemented in a range of educational establishments across the UK.
Examples will include successes from Barking & Dagenham College, Craven College, New College
Durham and Bradford University. The workshop will provide information on energy solutions which
have made real savings, reduced consumption and created long standing behavioural changes
within the education sector.
This presentation by Brian MOTHERWAY, Head of Energy Efficiency Division (International Energy Agency) was made during the discussion “Radical innovation in the electricity sector” held at the 63rd meeting of the OECD Working Party No. 2 on Competition and Regulation on 19 June 2017.

7. Some characteristics
• Period: 2008-2020
• 50-80 PJ primary energy as “additional” savings (in
average 65 PJ)
• Target groups: households and tertiarry sector
• Obliged party: Energy suppliers
• Threshold: Proportional to energy delivered to target
groups
• Banking and borrowing allowed
• Non-obliged parties can create certificates
8. Eligible measures
• Building-linked: Strong links with the Energy
Index and the EPBD Directive
• White and brown goods
• Small goods
• Innovative goods
• Behavioral measures
• Leasing goods
9. Certification
Deemed savings approach based on a realistic
‘energy saving value’ (similar to ongoing Italian
Energy Efficiency Titles scheme)
E.g. corrections for rebound, effective life span of
measures, misuse, etc.
Certification preferably can be based on
EPBD energy-efficiency index ( EI-approach)
energy-efficiency labels for appliances (labels better than
the ones with high market share)
10. Making things simpler...
• Register & certificates electronic & web-
based
• Using existing EPBD tools and software to
provide EI and EI calculation
• Thresholds for certification
– Either based on a minimum energy saving value
or on a minimum number of measures (e.g. per 50
dwellings with improved EI; or per 1000 efficient
dryers sold)
• Electronic proof of sales allowed
• No consumer involvement with certificates.
11. Currently
• Design options for a White Certificate scheme
discussed
• Alternative policy options also on the agenda (e.g.
tenders for energy efficiency without obligations)
• How can market players be triggered is under
research.
• Links of White Certificates to energy certificates
(EPBD) as from 2008
• Some more definitive results are expected in the
coming months, after the elections
