Technology for district heating and cooling

Topic EE13

Technology readiness levels (TRLs)

Proposals are expected to be implemented at the specific TRLs RIA

1. Specific Challenge

District heating and cooling systems need to be more efficient, intelligent and cheaper

It is necessary to:• develop and deploy intelligent systems using smart metering

and control solutions for: optimisation consumer empowerment exploiting multiple energy resources (waste heat recovery, HPs,

thermal storage, cogeneration) renewable energy integration

• roll-out solutions for the integration of smart thermal networks with smart electricity grids

EE-13

Scope (1/4) Develop, demonstrate and deploy a new generation of highly

efficient, intelligent district heating and cooling systems that are capable of integrating multiple generation sources which can be operated at different temperature levels Systems can be new schemes or refurbished and optimised existing

DH systems

Systems should be compatible with and capable of integration with low energy buildings, including nearly zero energy buildings (e.g. using low temperature district heating)

Proposals should address 1 or more of the 4 areas included in the topic scope

EE-13

Scope (2/4) Bring down heat distribution losses and integrate

storage through: use of innovative pipe and storage design high performance insulation materials reduced operating temperatures efficiency system for fluid handling intelligent metering, control and grid optimisation

strategies, including from analysing smart meter data, consumer interaction and behaviour

EE-13

Scope (3/4) Develop optimisation, control metering, planning

and modelling tools such as: Intelligent thermal agile controllers embedding self-learning

algorithms which help to optimise the overall efficiency of technology hybrid systems;

IT supervision systems capable of delivering real-time performance indicators, which are likely to modify consumption behaviours

Develop new solutions for low temperature heat recovery and recirculation

Scope (4/4)

EE-13

Expected impacts

Reduced energy consumption of space and water heating by 30 to 50% compared to today's level

contribute to the wider use of intelligent district heating and cooling systems

contribute to the integration of renewables, waste [heat] and storage

Proposals should describe how they will contribute to the expected impact set out under Topic EE 13 in the work programme.

Expected impact must be specific, and provide information that applies to the proposal and its objectives. Quantified indicators and

targets are expected.

EE-13

Lessons learnt (I) Consider carefully the template for the technical annex of

proposals and the guidance included there

Proposals should be focused and address the specific challenge "proposals should address one or more of the areas in the scope"

Actors involved have included universities, research centres, industries, utilities, municipalities, building responsible/owners and SMEs

EE-13

Lessons learnt (II) Be clear and exhaustive on the starting point of the action

what has been already done how would the proposed action move things further demonstrate the innovation potential

Measures to exploit the project results are generally overlooked and remember to pay attention to Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)

Pay attention to the impacts to be achieved by projects Quantify the reduction of energy consumption and explain underlying

assumptions Describe as necessary, i.e. contribution to the integration of waste

heat and RES

Removing market barriers to the uptake of efficient heating

and cooling solutions

Topic EE14

Policy context

2012: Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) Directive 2012/27/EU Promoting energy efficiency, including through efficient cogeneration and

district H&C* (Art. 14). Member states shall:

carry out a comprehensive assessment of the potential for the application of high-efficiency cogeneration and efficient district heating and cooling (notification to EC by Dec 2015)

adopt policies encouraging the taking into account of the potential of using efficient H&C systems. Account shall be taken of the potential for developing local and regional heat markets.

(here potential is identified), take adequate measures favouring efficient district H&C infrastructure and/or the development of high-efficiency cogeneration and the use of H&C from waste heat and renewable energy sources

* Systems using at least 50% renewable energy can be qualified as efficient district H&C (Art. 2)

EE-14

Policy context

2010: Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD recast) Directive 2010/31/EU Inspection of heating systems (art 14) and of air-conditioning systems

(art 15) – MS should shall lay down the necessary measures to:

establish regular inspection of the accessible parts of systems used for space heating (>20 kW) and for air conditioning (>12 kW) the building

including assessment of boiler efficiency and the boiler sizing compared with the heating requirements of the building

frequency of such inspections can be reduced, as appropriate, where an electronic monitoring and control system is in place

EE-14

Policy context

2010: Energy labelling directive (recast) 2010/30/EU from Sep 2015 suppliers putting certain heating and cooling systems on the

market should ensure that: an energy label is attached, a product fiche is provided promotion material includes a reference to the seasonal space heating energy efficiency class minimum requirements regarding the efficiency of the products will also apply from Sep

2015, http://ec.europa.eu/energy/efficiency/labelling/labelling_en.htm

Space and water heaters commission delegated regulations No811/2013 and No812/2013. http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ALL/?uri=OJ:L:2013:239:TOC guidelines on space and water heaters are being produced, in order to help with the

implementation of the Regulations. Available on DG ENER Website by January 2015.

Actions should make it possible for local communities and MS to develop strategies for the achievement of the overall EU targets

Actions should go beyond tool development and involve/engage with the target groups and end users leading to market roll-out

EE-14

EXPECTED IMPACT More favourable market conditions for efficient heating

and cooling solutions and opening up of new markets Every million Euro of EU support should in the short term

lead to the reduction of at least 25 GWh/yr of fossil fuels for heating and cooling.

Significant impacts should also be measured in terms of:• investment made by stakeholders in sustainable energy• number of policy makers influenced• number of people with increased skills or • number of people changing their behaviour

Impacts should be described, quantified and related to the proposed activities

EE-14

Lessons learnt Some proposals tried to cover too many areas and as result they were

too vague proposals need to be focused

Consortia should include or engage with the relevant market actors and stakeholders as appropriate, e.g. industry (equipment and fuel suppliers), installers, real estate developers, public authorities, energy services companies, designers and end user groups / consumer associations.

Proposals should respond to a real need problem, action design, stakeholders involved, required activities impacts

Projects should seek the adoption/initiation/implementation of the proposed approaches during the project duration decision makers need to be involved

Sustainability of the proposed action

Technical studies / technological development might be required HOWEVER these should be essential for the realisation of the action bearing in mind the impacts of CSA/market uptake actions
