1 Austrian Energy Agency Austria s efforts to increase energy efficiency Guenter Pauritsch Kiew, 17th March 2010 Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 1
2 EU: Rationale for energy efficiency Technologies that can reduce global CO2 emissions from energy combustion Mt CO Energy savings avoided emissions Fossil fuel switch Renewable energies Nuclear energy 5000 Carbon sequestration 0 Emission of reduction case Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 2
3 EU Directive on Energy end-use efficiency and energy savings Need to increase end-use energy efficiency: reduction of primary energy use reduction of CO 2 emissions link to the 20/20/20 goals of the EU Purpose provide framework that favors efficient use of energy create the conditions for the development of a market for energy services and other energy efficiency improvement measures Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 3
4 Directive 2006/32/EC 82 Scope: providers of energy efficiency improvements distributors distribution system operators retail energy sales companies final customers (exceptions) Targets: by 2016: 9 % indicative energy savings target Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 4
5 First National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency Determination of the indicative targets: 80,4 PJ or 22,34 TWh (2016) 17,9 PJ (intermediate target 2010) Energy saving strategy and measures government program Energy-concepts, -program and guidelines of the Austrian regions Promotion schemes for residential buildings domestic Environmental promotion schemes Austrian Energy Strategy Public sector as role model Information and consulting service Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 5
6 Energy Efficiency- Competences of the Austrian Energy Agency Development of the 1st National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency Monitoring body (Dir. 2006/32 EC Art. 4) Verification of the energy savings as a result of energy services and other energy efficiency improvement measures Development of bottom-up methods Coordination of the energy action program according to the governmental program Estimation of potential for energy saving measures Framework for voluntary measures Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 6
7 Potential for Energy Savings until 2020: 93,55 PJ Industrial CHP; 5,5 Electricity; 6,7 Traffic and mobility; 40,5 Room Heating; 40,9 Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 7
8 Energy efficiency for Buildings Building code requires minimum standard subsidy schemes for residential buildings ( 2,4 billion per year) support construction of low energy buildings and passive houses klima:aktiv -standard promotes ecological construction (including building materials) Energy certification show up the quality of buildings Target 1: only passive buildings until 2015 at the latest Target 2: significant increase of renovation rehabilitation/modernisation of all buildings from 1950 to 1980 until 2020 modernisation of Federal buildings via contracting Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 8

12 Austrian building stock 2.05 million buildings 75% are single family houses and detached houses 14% non-residential buildings 21% of residential buildings constructed before % of residential buildings constructed Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 12
13 Austrian building stock 2.05 million buildings 75% are single family houses and detached houses 14% non-residential buildings (main share: tourism and offices) Main issue: heating energy consumption Main issue: electricity consumption, cooling Energy consumption for electric appliances and cooling is increasing!

15 Subsidy for energy efficiency measures and renewable energy use Most important indicator for energy efficiency performance: heating energy demand [kwh/m2a] Usually, requirements depend on the surface to volume ratio lower requirements for single family buildings higher requirements for multifamily buildings In addition, grants are available for renewable energy technologies, e.g. biomass, solar thermal plants, heat pumps. Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 15
16 New construction New construction = additional buildings, causing additional energy consumption and CO2 emissions Therefore energy consumption and CO2 emissions should be reduced as much as possible Subsidy schemes: Defined energy efficiency categories represented by heating energy demand values [kwh/m2a] with funds allocated to them In addition, there are subventions available for the use of renewable energy technologies Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 16
17 New building construction: mandatory energy performance requirements Example Province of Styria: Single family houses must achieve the minimum requirement 65 kwh/m²a as a condition to receive social housing subsidy In addition, the following subsidies are offered depending on the energy efficiency performance: Category low energy house: maximum 52 kwh/m²a additional Category super low energy house: maximum 39 kwh/m²a additional Category passive house: maximum 15 kwh/m²a additional Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 17
18 New construction: more ambitious mandatory requirements Burgenland: 40 kwh/m2a heating energy demand for single family houses; additional grant (up to ) for passive house standard Vienna implements the following conditions since 2009: 45 kwh/m2a heating energy demand for single family houses without controlled ventilation 33 kwh/m2a for single family houses with controlled ventilation Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 18
19 Building renovation to increase energy efficiency of building stock The Austrian building stock (residential buildings) implies a significant energy saving potential Average heating energy demand of multifamily buildings is estimated 90 kwh/m 2 a Average heating energy demand of single family houses and detached houses is estimated 200 kwh/m 2 a Ambitious targets: increase energy related renovation rate from < 1% to 3% p.a. Shifting subsidies from new construction to renovation necessary (negotiations Federal state Länder) Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 19
20 Which strategy is best to tap the full savings potential? Ambitious targets (low heating energy demand) OR Moderate threshold and amount of funding depending on the energy performance Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 20
21 Which strategy ist best? Ambitious targets: no obligation for energy related renovations less investment in energy related building renovation if requirements set by the subsidy scheme are too strict Therefore the subsidy schemes of the Austrian provinces offer: Defined energy efficiency categories represented by heating energy demand values [kwh/m2a] with funds allocated to them. Moderate threshold to encourage potentially interested building owners to aim also for energy related improvement Subventions available for renewable energy use connected with subsidies for the renovation of the heating system Subsidies for the renovation of single components (e.g. windows, insulation of top ceiling) Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 21
22 Energy conservation in buildings new constructions building stock efficiency class kwh/m2a efficiency class kwh/m2a A++ up to 10 A++ up to 10 A+ > A+ > A > A > B > B > C > C > D > D > E > E > F > F > G > 250 G > 250 BAU today in the future BAU renovation today in the future existing quality Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 22
23 Advantages of a stepwise energy efficiency related subsidy scheme Attracts as many building owners as possible and rewards energy related measures The highest subsidy is available for a renovation according to passive house standard Takes into account technical and economical challenges in the renovation sector: Technical barriers connected with the structure of the existing building may not allow passive house renovation Financial barriers: a highly ambitious renovation might not be affordable Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 23
24 A barrier for optimised renovation and a solution The renovation of the building envelope and the heating system might not be due at the same time In practical terms: building owner carries out isolated measures without holistic renovation concept no optimisation of energy performance Vorarlberg funds the elaboration of a comprehensive renovation concept with 600, in order to give an incentive for optimised major renovations Even if all measures are not implemented at the same time due to financial reasons, the building owner is provided with a renovation plan: recommending appropriate measures and scheduling them in the correct sequence Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 24
25 Subsidies to address the nonresidential sector (renovation) Subsidies to improve energy efficiency of building envelope and windows of buildings constructed before Target group: commercial Amount: max. 30 % of total energy related investment cost, energy indicator is max. 50 kwh/m²a max. 20% of total energy related investment cost, energy indicator is between 50 und 70 kwh/m²a Austrian Energy Agency 29/03/10 Seite 25
26 Summary Energy related social housing subsidy schemes are important instruments to activate energy savings and renewable energy gains in the residential building sector. They reward energy performance better than the minimum requirements set by the respective legislation. Energy efficiency standards have been improving constantly in new construction as well as in building renovation. In new construction there is the intention to limit social housing subsidies to passive house standard in the near future. Regarding building stock there are still technical and economical limitations regarding the broad realisation of passive house renovations; however, super low energy houses seem to be a realistic standard in the near future.
