WP6 main Goal

The objective of this WP is to analyse all the
parameters, apart technological, related to
energy consumption in the household sector, to
examine different approaches, including voluntary
agreements, technology procurement, labelling,
mandatory minimum efficiency standards, and
white certificates, in order to make concrete
suggestions at institutional, supportive and
fiscal level for a successful market
transformation.
Duration

Work Analysis (1)
Based on the monitoring/surveying campaign of the
project and its analysis, there will be a better
understanding of all the driving forces regarding
energy efficiency in the residential sector and
their impact. Market transformation is the key
element for a more energy-efficient future and
for this transformation to succeed, there has to
be a multilevel approach on

• Institutional level
• Analysis of
• Existing and future directives
• Sets of policies (energy labeling, mandatory
  minimum efficiency standards, etc.)
• Evaluation

Work Analysis (1)

• Existing and future directives
• 92/75/EEC General framework for energy labelling
  of domestic appliances
• 2005/32/EC establishing a framework for the
  setting of eco-design requirements for
  energy-using products
• 2006/32/EC on energy end-use efficiency and
  energy services
• Other relevant legislation
• National (country specific legislation)

Work Analysis (1)

• 2005/32/EC establishing a framework for the
  setting of eco-design requirements for
  energy-using products
• Key points
• Manufacturers must provide declaration of
  conformity
• Information provision to consumers
  (characteristics, rational use)
• Minimum necessary energy consumption in stand-by
  and off modes
• Marker surveillance by country designated
  authorities
• Actions by partners
• Contacts with designated authorities
• Market review
• Contacts with manufacturers, representatives

Work Analysis (2)

• Supportive schemes level
• Examination of
• Information campaigns
• From national authorities, consumers associations
  on energy efficient appliances and the rational
  use of appliances and lighting
• Past, current and future campaigns
• Impact evaluation and utilisation for the
  planning of future campaigns
• Public awareness campaigns
• On environmental issues related to energy
  consumption
• Consumers must understand the impact on the
  environment

CRES
Work Analysis (2)

• Supportive schemes level
• Training schemes for retail staff
• Important factor as retail staff is the
  connection between consumers and energy efficient
  appliances
• Promotion of energy efficient appliances and
  provision of information on the rational use of
  domestic appliances and lighting could lead to a
  more efficient market

Work Analysis (2)

• Supportive schemes level
• Demand Side Management
• Utility companies
• Information campaigns on the impact of energy
  saving
• Motives to decrease energy use
• Utility companies can and must be a reliable
  partner for the decrease of energy use

Work Analysis (4)

• All related information, existing experience and
  other relevant project results will be collected
  from project partners and utilised.
• Key stakeholders such as manufacturers/wholesalers
  , utility companies, will be contacted and
  involved in order to analyse all relevant issues
  and to examine their willingness and motives to
  have a more active involvement towards energy
  efficiency (technology procurement, voluntary
  agreements, etc). Furthermore, their opinion on
  key issues, barriers, opportunities, etc, will be
  recorded and utilised.
• Public administration will be called in round
  tables or will be interviewed in order to express
  their priorities and opinions.

OUTCOMES - DELIVERABLES

• Analysis report of all aspects related to energy
  consumption in the residential sector (human
  behaviour, habits, social and economic status,
  environmental awareness, education, etc).
• One of key outputs of the project will be a set
  of specific policy recommendations for each type
  of equipment, which can lead to a successful
  market transformation and to provide
  cost-effective energy and carbon savings.
