The Italian Federation for the Rational use of Energy is a no-profit association founded in 1987 that promotes energy efficiency, supporting energy manager, ESCOs and other companies dealing with energy.

Besides the activities directed to its nearly 450 members, FIRE operates under an implementing agreement with the Ministry of Economic Development to manage the Italian energy manager network since 1992.

In order to promote energy efficiency FIRE cooperates and deals with public authorities, energy technology and service companies, consultants, medium and large consumers, universities and associations to promote best practices and improve the legislation.

FIRE manages SECEM - an accredited body - to certify the Energy management experts according to the standard UNI CEI 11339.

SECEM

SECEM, European System for Certification in Energy Management, is a certification body created by the FIRE.

SECEM was the first body to offer third-party certification for Energy Management Experts (EMEs) according to UNI CEI 11339 and is accredited according to the ISO/IEC 17024 standard.

In Italy two standards were developed in order to promote the qualification of energy efficiency operators: UNI CEI 11339 for EMEs was issued in 2009, UNI CEI 11352 for ESCOs was published in 2010. A new standard for energy auditor is presently under preparation.

Both the mentioned standards are recognized from the national legislation within the energy audit obl igat ions for large companies introduced by the EED directive and the white certificate scheme.

The IEE ENSPOL project

The ENSPOL project’s main aim is to support member states who intend to set up new EEO schemes or implement alternative measures, as well as inform about the on-going development of existing schemes, and support member states with an existing EEO scheme to improve it, learning from and building on existing experiences.

The specific objectives of ENSPOL are to: Assess the relative strengths and weaknesses of EEOs and alternative measures based on the existing experiences and plans of member states and make recommendations for the most appropriate approaches against different criteria and under different conditions. Improve the knowledge and capabilities of member states (both within and outside of the project) with regards to the different options available for implementation of Article 7 (EEOs and alternative measures). Ensure the effective engagement of the broad range of stakeholders with an interest in the implementation of Article 7 and promote a wide consultation at European level. Complement and enhance the work of existing EU and member states initiatives concerned with the implementation of Article 7 EED.

The ENSPOL project started up in 2014 and will go on till mid 2016.

Saving evaluation methods in Italian WhC

12

Deemed savings projects (progetti standard): the saving is evaluated with respect to the number of installed reference units (e.g. square meter, kW, number of installed units). No measures are required. Only standardized solutions can be included in a deemed saving file. The proponent presents an RVC once.

Scaled savings - engineering estimates (progetti analitici): the saving is evaluated with respect to some measured quantities through a dedicated algorithm defined in a dedicated file. Required meters are also indicated in the dedicated file. The proponent presents an RVC at least once a year.

Metered saving (progetti a consuntivo): the method is similar to the previous one, but the algorithm, the baseline, the additional saving coefficient, and the needed meters should be preliminarily proposed by the applicant PPPM and approved from GSE (with ENEA-RSE). After the PPPM is accepted the proponent will get WhC by presenting an RVC at least once a year.

Possono naturalmente presentarsi situazioni più semplici nelle quali, ad esempio, non viene erogato raffrescamento e le funzioni di riscaldamento e produzione di a.c.s. vengono espletate da un unico generatore di calore. Con “sistemi di distribuzione” si intendono le pompe e gli ausiliari asserviti alla circolazione dei fluidi termovettori.

Points to be considered

20

Measuring EE savings is really an hard task. We are just at the beginning of the journey…

Deemed savings Scaled savings Metered savings

The method is easy to use and facilitates the evaluation.

Savings are not measured and monitoring can be complex if multiple solutions are considered.

Required documentation: choice to go easy or bureaucratic, which usually implies a failure, unless the incentive is very high.

On field controls are expensive.

Effort required to evaluate baselines, additionality, and other needed information.

High cost-effectiveness.

Possibility to pre-evaluate EE products in order to ensure the required performance.

The method is easy to use and facilitates the evaluation.

Savings are measured.

Required documentation: choice to go easy or bureaucratic, which usually implies a failure, unless the incentive is very high.

On field controls are usually a viable option.

Effort required to evaluate baselines, additionality, algorithms and meters to be used, and the other needed information.

High cost-effectiveness.

Simplified monitoring plans?

The method is usually complex, especially if additionality or detailed adjustments are present.

Savings are measured.

Required documentation: is usually substantial, but the size of the project allows it.

On field controls are usually a viable option.

Effort required to evaluate baselines, additionality, algorithms and meters to be used, and the other needed information for both the proponents and the evaluators. Shall data be available for everybody?

Very flexible, but potentially costly and complicated (viable for high targets).

The introduction of the tau coefficient has increased the number of long lifespan projects, together with the cost of the scheme, but it has not ensured an increase in new annual savings.

It works!

New guidelines to be introduced in order to improve the scheme (cost effectiveness, additionality/materiality, saving assessment, support to complex projects, etc.).

The most important lesson learnt is that such a scheme can not born perfect, but it needs continuos care and also some imperfections should be accepted during transitions.

Some directions from MiSE for the new guidelines, to be issued in few months:

no more tau coefficient; new evaluation methodology (simplified monitoring plans with sample measurements) and surveyed savings; stricter evaluation of ex-ante consumption; new rules for responsibilities with ESCOs as proponents; pay-back t ime minimum requirements; increased controls.
