TRANSCRIPT
A voluntary District Heating and Cooling performance labelling scheme
Supported by
Contract No. IEE/09/798/S12.558275June 2010 – December 2012
Context– Heating as the largest single energy end-use in Europe!– The majority of energy use come from cities!– A very large share of energy is wasted!
to improve efficiency of energy use and integrate renewables on a large scale, it is absolutely necessary to support efficient and flexible heating and cooling systems on a local level throughout Europe
Ecoheat Label: three criteria assessing District Heating and Cooling systems
support the aims of the EU 20-20-20 targets
show DHC performance and contribution to EU targets
Resource efficiency Renewability CO2 efficiencyReduce Increase Reduce
Resource Efficiency Criteria is based on the Primary Energy Factor (PEF) .The lower the primary energy factor, the lower the primary energy input in relation to the volume of heat supplied and thus the more flower petals colored.
CO2 EfficiencyBased on the CO2 emission per delivered MWh of thermal energy. The lower the value, the more the system is climate-friendly and thus more flower petals.
Renewable shareThis factor values the share of renewable and surplus heat in relation to the European/national renewable target.
The label: translating parameters into a visual
The labelshows performance
of each criteria visualizes how DHC
contributes to 20:20:20 targets
creates an incentive for improvement
Archievements30+ DHC systems labelled across 7 countries Online tools created for DHC companies to promote
their energy performance and reveal the potential in providing efficient environmentally correct solutions compared to other options
Online tools for municipalities and urban planners to compare heating and cooling options
Positive assessement from municipalities with labelled systems on expediency and visibility of label
