Workshop on Annual energy savings generated through energy efficiency obligation schemes and alternative measures implemented under EED Article 7: Summary of the Topics Discussed
The EU Member States have submitted their fourth annual reports due by 30 April 2016 in accordance with Article 24(1) of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED). These reports include information concerning energy savings achieved in 2014 through the national energy efficiency obligation schemes referred to in Article 7(1) or the alternative measures adopted in application of Article 7(9) in accordance with EED Annex XIV Part 1 point (e).
It is therefore possible for the first time to discuss and analyse how the measures implemented by Member States have actually allowed achieving the annual energy savings requirement under Article 7 of the EED starting from 1 January 2014 (first year of compliance). The claimed energy savings represent an opportunity to better understand how energy efficiency obligation schemes (EEOSs) and related methodologies for energy savings calculation, monitoring and verification have been actually implemented by Member States. In addition, reported energy savings can also allow better understanding of how the established methodologies for calculation and monitoring and verification of energy savings triggered by alternative measures under Article 7 work in practice.
In order to discuss the above mentioned aspects with Member States representatives, a workshop on annual energy savings generated through energy efficiency obligation schemes and alternative measures implemented under Article 7 of the EED was organised by DG JRC on behalf of DG ENER (that took place on 15-16 November 2016).
This report discusses the outcomes of this two days event almost exclusively attended by Member States representatives involved in Article 7 implementation. Two consecutive sessions of presentations and discussions have been organised during each day. It briefly summarises the contents of each presentation by focusing on the input provided by speakers in relation to the above mentioned topics . Topics discussed after each presentation, if any, are also described immediately after the summary provided for each presentation. Where deemed necessary and useful these descriptions have been detailed by the author by including graphs and considerations that can hopefully help better understand the questions at stake and their implications for the annual energy savings to be calculated and reported by Member States in their future annual reports.
