European Commission

Directorate General for Energy

Unit C3, Energy efficiency

How do we achieve energy efficiency in product design?

Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC

Both Directives are «frameworks» defining the «rules» for setting product-specific requirements through Regulations.

Efficient product

sSupply side Demand side

Energy Labelling Directive 2010/30/EU

+ Labelling of Tyres (Regulation 1222/2009)

Combined effect ensures a dynamic improvement of the market:

Enforcement

Market surveillance is the role of national authorities, it includes:Inspecting technical documentationProduct testingInspection of labels in shops and on the internetRandom and/or risk based samplingCooperation with other market surveillance authorities

Market surveillance regulation 765/2008Applies to all Union harmonisation legislation on products Applies also to Ecodesign, Energy Labelling and Tyre LabellingNew proposal under negotiation in European Parliament and Council

Solutions

11

EnergyEnergy

Solutions• More priority and resources at national

level

• More cooperation at EU level, including joint surveillance actions

• EU-level product registration/database

• (EU-level market surveillance authority)12

Challenge: • By 2020 full implementation of the EU product

efficiency legislation should be one of the most important contributions to the EU energy efficiency target;

• Need for market surveillance.

EE 15: Ensuring effective implementation of EU product efficiency legislation.

CSA

Scope: • Building up monitoring, verification and

enforcement of the EU's related products policy;

• Need to involve Market Surveillance Authorities (MSAs) and Consumer (end-user) Associations;

• Go beyond the 'normal' activities of MSAs;

• High EU transnational added value.

EE 15: Ensuring effective implementation of EU product efficiency legislation.

Impact: • Stronger enforcement of EU product legislation;

• Increased market confidence;

• Every million € of EU funding should lead to at least 15 GWh/year of avoided energy losses.

EE 15: Ensuring effective implementation of EU product efficiency legislation.

• Pilot Exercise in coordinated activity of MSAs• www.ecopliant.eu Ecopliant

• Product group: TVs• www.compliantv.eu ComplianTV

• Product group: refrigerators• www.atlete.eu ATLETE

• Product group: Washing machines• www.atlete.eu/2/ ATLETE II

• Civil Society Organizations• http://www.market-watch.eu/ MarketWatch

Previous IEE project examples on market surveillance related activities

EE 15: Ensuring effective implementation of EU product efficiency legislation.

2014 Lessons learned

• Involve MSAs• Justify choice of product group(s)• Substantiate the foreseen energy savings• Do not do the same than previous projects• EU transnational added value (>28 MSAs)

EE 15: Ensuring effective implementation of EU product efficiency legislation.

Large buyer groups (EE17)

Challenge: • The larger the group of buyers, the higher the

potential for manufacturer's interest and for ambitious product specifications;

• Innovative 'Technology procurement' has been successfully applied to a few product groups but is not widely spread;

• Fragmented procurement market.

EE 17: Driving energy innovation through large buyer groups

CSA

Scope • Products with large potential for market demand and

supporting EU energy targets;

• Energy-using or –producing products;

• Higher-than-available performance;

• Ambitious but achievable technical specifications;

• No market distortion;

• Simple procurement belongs to topic EE8 (closed in 2015);

EE 17: Driving energy innovation through large buyer groups

Impact • Creation of influential buyer groups;

• New products with at least 25% better energy performance;

• Improved competitiveness of manufacturers.

EE 17: Driving energy innovation through large buyer groups

What this means for a consortium?

• Acting as 'facilitators' to setup large buyer groups;

• Investigating and preparing the innovative minimum energy performance requirement, including economic and technical feasibility;

• Communication activities to encourage buyers and manufacturers to join in as market leaders in energy efficient products.

EE 17: Driving energy innovation through large buyer groups

Some pointers

• Public procurement of existing products is not within scope;

• Objective is not to bring price down;• Objective is to drive innovation up at

affordable prices by lowering the risk for manufacturers;

• Prototyping is not eligible;
