Ofgem • Sets suppliers’ targets • Approve schemes • Monitor activity • Per scheme • Per supplier • Report to the Secretary of State • Enforce compliance where necessary
Energy savings achieved Energy savings achieved by measure type for Priority and non Priority consumers
EEC 1 62 TWh 0.4 MtC a year £3.60/customer/fuel/year £500m 50% Priority Group 2002 - 2005 EEC 2 130 TWh 0.7 MtC a year £9 /customer/fuel/year £1200m 50% Priority Group 2005 - 2008 A comparison
Carbon savings from households Projected carbon savings from the household sector (MtC pa) to 2010

EEC 1 quarterly savings compared to EEC 2 EEC 1 achieved energy savings comparable to the EEC 2 energy savings and EEC 2 indicative quarterly savings
Energy savings by measure type The percentage energy savings achieved by measure type from EEC 1 and the indicative percentage savings for EEC 2
What SHPs need to know • Domestic consumers can benefit • Schemes must be ‘additional’ to BaU • No retrospective funding • Priority Group definition • Monitoring • Properties • Quality • Customer satisfaction • Free CFLs – limited to four per household • SHP declaration must be signed
SHP Declarations • Confirms • The scheme would not have gone ahead without the supplier’s funding, • The supplier’s funding has not replaced any funds for such work, from any source, • There has been no retrospective funding of measures, and • The proportion of recipients in the Priority Group
Opportunities for SHPs • Insulation the most cost effective measure • ….but a mix of measures is desirable • Social housing partnerships key • …with increasing focus on private households • Priority Group • Incentive for innovative measures
Opportunities, continued! • Eight suppliers • Three years • £1 billion pounds • Contact details at www.ofgem.gov.uk • ‘EEC 3’ 2008 - 2011 • Defra to review the EEC in 2007
Points for discussion • EEC 1 • Examples of successful partnerships • What have been your experiences over the last three years? • How have you benefited? • What lessons can be learnt • EEC 2 • What do you want to achieve over the next three years • Potential post 2008?
