1. Climate Change & Energy Policy
Stern Review (2006)
Loose between 5% and 20% GDP “now and forever”, or spend around 1% GDP per year?
“There is still time to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, if we take strong action now”

Premature Deaths in Ireland
In 2013 the number of premature deaths in Ireland due to air pollution was 1,520.
More than doubling in just three years

Adaptation in Ireland
Mission……To play a leading role in transforming Ireland to a society based on sustainable energy structures, technologies and practices
Key objectives• Energy efficiency first• Low carbon energy resources • Innovation and Integration

Ireland’s 2020 Targets16% of total energy by 2020
40% electricity by 2020 12% heat by 2020 10% transport electrified by 2020
EU 20/20/20 Strategy
20% greenhouse gas reduction in the non-EU ETS sectors

2. Business Case for Sustainable Energyincl Case Studies
The Business Case
• How controllable are your energy costs?
– What is your Annual Energy Spend?
– What is your Annual Operating Cost?
– What is energy as a % of your Profit?
Annual Op. Costs (AOC) €3,000,000
Total Energy Cost €300,000Energy as % of AOC 10%Annual Profits €600,000Energy as % of Profits 50%
How much more profit would we make (% increase) if we cut energy costs by 10% (€30,000) ? ~5%
Business Case - example
How many “widgets” would you need to sell to make €30,000 in profit?
Are you paying too much for Energy …..?
Energy Supply Energy Usage
Pay less per
unit of energyReduce energy
consumed
AIM
To achieve organisation objectives at minimum energy cost
What can you do to ?
Where are the opportunities - Energy Use by Area
Identify where energy is used, assess and take action
• Compile an energy checklist for your premises by walking around your buildings at different times of the day and seeing where energy is used.
• Check on building insulation, lighting, heating systems, pumps, ventilation, water heating, cooling, and compressed air.

Small Boiler Opportunities
Boiler Controls
• Smaller boilers for space heating– Time clock– Optimum stop/start– Weather compensated– Zone Control allows areas of building be
separately controlled
Cooling & Air Conditioning Opportunities
• Save up to 30% on cooling and air conditioning costs• The ideal set point for cooling buildings is 24°C. Cooling
much below this results in significantly higher costs.• Avoid simultaneous heating and cooling• Heating should be set to come on at 19°C and off at 21°C.• Keep windows closed• Use the natural climate: Switching them off and making good
use of outside air for "free cooling“• Maintenance, filters cleaned, dampers, controls tested
Lighting Opportunities
Lighting• Save up to 75% on lighting costs• Energy Efficient Lamp Replacement
– LED lights• Controls
– Occupancy detection– Dimming– Switching
• Switch Off Campaign with staff and residents
Renewable Electricity: Photo Voltaic
• Sizing– 1m2 = Around 120 kWh / yr (12% eff)– (325 kWh Primary)
• Installation– Roof or rack mounted
• Benefits– Up to 50% of electricity demand (10m2)– Offsets grid electricity – reducing BER and
CDER– Primary Energy benefit
• Costs– Typical cost €10,000 / kWp Typical system
€15,000 - €20,000
Renewable Electricity: Photo Voltaic
• Over 4GW of ground mount PV projects have applied for grid connection
• Over 500MW of ground mount PV projects have applied for planning permission
• SEAI has supported quite a few PV arrays through it’s Better Energy Communities programme
Renewable Electricity: Wind Turbines
• Installation– Free standing (mast), away from
buildings and trees• Benefits
– Up to 100% of electricity demand– Offsets grid electricity – reducing
BER and CDER• Costs
– Typical cost €6,000 / kWphttp://www.seai.ie/Renewables/Microgeneration/Microge
