1 Energy transition and green growth in France Anne VARET Director for Research ADEME France

2 Energy transition and green growth in France: new law at the parliament How ADEME is participating to implementation of the objectives? Focus on RDI Beyond technologies some further cooperations?

3 The new law in France for energy transition and green growth After a large debate among stake holders in 2013, a new law has been adopted by Government mid 2014 and voted by National Assembly in October 2014 (discussed by Senate in February 2015) Main objectives to comply with factor 4 in 2050 : Reducing energy demand by 50% to 2050 Increasing the share of renewable energy from 13,4% (2012) to 32% in 2030 Reducing the share of nuclear from 75% to 50% in 2025 Macro-economic evaluation done by ADEME shows that energy transition could be beneficial for economic growth (GDP +3 points in 2050) and employment ( in 2030, in 2050) respectively to a scenario without energy transition 3

4 Law made up of 8 sections 1. Define shared objectives for successfully bringing about the energy transition, increase France's energy independence and combat climate change. 2. Renovate buildings in order to save energy, reduce energy bills, create jobs and develop positive energy regions. 3. Develop clean transport systems in order to improve air quality and protect people's health. 4. Tackle waste and promote the circular economy from the product design through to their recycling. 5. Encourage the use of renewable energies in order to diversify our energy mix and make use of our regions' resources. 6. Make nuclear power safer and keep people better informed about it. 7. Simplify and clarify procedures for improving efficiency and being more competitive. 8. Provide people, companies, regions and the state with the power to take action together. 4

5 ADEME activity as operator of public policy ADEME is involved as Public Agency under the authority of Ministry of Energy, Environment, Sustainable Development and Research in the field of energy efficiency and renewable energy: Advices for the Government (on policies and measures) and developing tools for companies and local authorities Awareness campaigns and information of large public Supporting investments in the field of heat production from renewable energies and waste reduction Supporting research and innovation for green technologies A staff ~ central sites (~50%) - 26 regional directions - 3 representations in overseas territories - 1 office in Brussels

6 ADEME activities for energy and green growth transition Supporting research and innovation for new technologies and services (R&D, Investments for the Future) Funding demonstrators (ZEB, buildings rehabilitation, smart grids, vehicles, industrial processes ) Technical advices for regulations (buildings codes ) and labelling (buildings, equipment, cars), for energy efficiency obligation of energy suppliers and certificates, for financial and fiscal measures Tools development for GHG emissions inventory and reduction plans for communities, companies (tertiary, industrial, freight transport) Funding local programs with regional authorities

7 Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation RDI supported by the agency will focus on, among others: devise responses to the expectations of society provide support for public authorities to help them build sustainable development policies that match these expectations accompany the emergence and implementation of a national offering of technologies and services that meet energy and environmental challenges ADEME Financing programme R & D ADEME Doctoral Thesis program ADEME research program R&D demonstrator R&D Demonstrator Fund Industrial development ADEME s Investment for the future field Business development

8 Strategy for RDI , objectives Encouraging research to accompany the energy and environmental transition and the fight to mitigate climate change, with a view to paving the way and providing support for operational activities led by ADEME Foster the emergence of new solutions/services, energy and environmental technologies, and options to combat climate change Produce contextual knowledge that is relevant and directly usable by actors in the economy and in society, by accompanying research action projects Accompany research that prefigures action on standards, regulations, labels and certification Strengthen the coordination of EU, national and regional research work

9 Support of RDI by ADEME Doctoral thesis with ADEME Develop an R&D project Finance an innovative project Specific program features Doctoral thesis program Research and development program Investments for the future program Type of funding PhD grants Mostly grants, and repayable grants Beneficiaries Type of project funded Project maturity / TRL Indicative amount of funding PhD students (3 year employment contract with ADEME) Concept-Feasability Research bodies, companies, nonprofits and local authorities Development experimental implementation research action prenormative research Grants, repayables grants and capital investment Mostly companies Demonstration Scale 1 Experimentation Initial industrial scale up TRL 3 to 4 TRL 4 to 7 TRL 6 to k 50 à 300 k > 1 M Annual budget ~5 M ~25 M ~350 M

10 Private and Public funding of projects Public/Private Funding Laboratory Field Test Private/Market Funding Full Size Project R&D Prototype Pre-industrialisation Pilot Project Development Industrialisation Public/State Funding I I I Infrastructure I I M R&D Demonstrator Fund 167 M Investment size ADEME research program ADEME IF Program 3 130M

11 Cooperation with private sector for green technologies innovation Investments for the Future: a fund for green energy technologies innovation set up by Government and managed by ADEME M on Renewable energy and efficiency (740 M funded as end 2014) Smart grids (92 M funded as end 2014) Circular economy (84 M funded as end 2014) M on future transports (road, railway, boats) (500 M funded end 2014) Co-investing in demonstrators projects and industrial experimentations proposed by companies (trigger effect = 3), public and private risk sharing Sharing innovation risk with companies for energy, environment, economic development and employment stakes Creating opportunities for international cooperation

12 Target : mainly companies 85% of credits 50% of funded companies are SBC and medium size Innovative technologies : What is funded through ADEME Investments for the future program? Project size in M 25 average research demonstrators, industrial research, experimental development, pre-industrial experimentation Innovations in term of new markets or organizations Demonstrations such as marine energy farms or territorial experimentation Industrial experimentation Technology platforms First deployment (recharging electrical vehicle infrastructure ) médiane Time to market

13 Demonstrators and industrial experimentations in the transport sector Technological innovations on cars : thermal (toward 2l/100 Km efficiency), Hybrid, electric EV and hybrid charging infrastructures Specific vehicles for urban use Advanced mobility services experimentations (car sharing, car pooling ) Innovative Railway Innovative Ships 500 M funded by ADEME end 2014

14 Financing green innovation at territories scale Positive energy or low consuming buildings: towards positive energy buildings in new construction/ refurbishing existing buildings at best performances through industrialization of construction New concepts for buildings to avoid urban spreading - Dwellings exchanging energy Sustainable mobility: Urban mobility services and interoperability of transport modes, infrastructure for electromobility Smart grid at the scale of territories : Objective to integrate > 20% renewable into the grid and demand response with smart meters: 17 projects already launched (experiments in the cities of Lyon, Grenoble, Nice, Toulouse, or in islands (Corse, Guadeloupe, Réunion) households involved in DSM projects (12 projects)

15 Smart grids experimentations: some examples Renewable energy integration Final consumer actor of the system Storage, demand response and grid management Consumer/producer SMART ZAE Optimization of energy production (renewable) and consumption with storage (flywheel) and DC network in an industrial zone NICEGRID 1500 households and companies involved in grid local management GREENLYS Large experimentation : Renewable energy, smart counters, 1000 households, 40 commercial sites in Lyon and Grenoble. SCLE, LEVYSIS, ERDF, EDF, ALSTOM, SAFT, RTE, ERDF, ALSTOM, ATOS, CEA, Schneider Electric

16 Smart Meters and Demand Side Management households involved in DSM projects (12 smart grid Investments for the future projects) Results: Providing households with information about their energy consumption is key to forging a culture of energy that will empower them to act upon their consumption. But providing raw information does not guarantee energy savings Support programs to foster behavioural change are necessary
