Energy policy and long term energy demand in Croatian households sector Tomislav Pukšec1 dipl.ing. Prof.dr.sc. Brian Vad Mathiesen2 Prof.dr.sc. Neven Duić1 1University of Zagreb, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture 2Aalborg University 20th HED Forum Zagreb, 18th ofNovember 2011
EU energy context • Security of energy supply • Import dependence from 50% to 70% by 2030 • Employment and regional development policies • Deindustrialization and trade liberalization • “Boosting growth and jobs by meeting our climate change commitments” • Mitigation of global warming • Environmental protection • Sustainable development
Energy - climate package 2008 • 20-20-20 till 2020 • 20% RES • 20% CO2 emission reduction • 20% less energy consumed
Towards 2050 • Decarbonising power • Renewables • Carbon capture and storage (CCS) • Nuclear? • Four pillars of Post carbon society • Renewable Energy • Buildings as Positive Power Plants • Energy Storage • Smart grids and Plug-in Vehicles
Motivation • Main goal to develop the methodology and mathematic model of future energy demand of a households sector (HED Model - “Households Energy Demand” Model) • Implementation of energy regulation • Build upon already existing energy planning tools developed at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture • Methodology applicable to other countries • HED Model tested on Croatia as a case study
Methodology • Bottom up approach • Data intensive • Modeling the base year (2008) • Describing all the mechanisms • Summarizing all sub-categories which leads to final results • Modeling long term energy demand of households sector • Making a referent scenario • Possibilities of constant modifications and add-ons • Comparing the results with the National energy strategy
Methodology • Developing methodology to project official national energy strategy • Period between 2030. – 2050. • Demography • GDP/capita • Energy intensity
Methodology • Wedges approach • How does a certain measure influence future energy demand
Methodology – industry wedges Final energy demand –Croatian industry sector (strategy) Final energy demand –Croatian industry sector (modeled referent scenario)
Methodology – households sector • Modeling available surfaces • Geographic distribution • Different usage types • Renovation/demolition/building tempo • Heat demand • Heat losses • Transmission and ventilation • Heat gains • Solar and internal
Methodology – households sector • Cooling demand • Cooling degree days • Electrical appliances • Specific energy consumption and energy efficiency • Cooking & hot water • Using available norms • Survey/literature data specific consumption and energy efficiency • Fuel and technology mixes
UTJECAJ TEHNOLOGIJE I FINANCIJSKIH MEHANIZAMA NA POTROŠNJU ENERGIJE
Results • Referent scenario • 3 refurbishment scenarios • 3 different fuel mix options • Comparison with the national energy strategy
Results – impact of zero energy buildings on distribution of final heat demand
Results – comparison with the National energy strategy (2030-2050 is modeled based on previously presented methodology)
Results UTJECAJ TEHNOLOGIJE I FINANCIJSKIH MEHANIZAMA NA POTROŠNJU ENERGIJE
Conclusion • Methodology is applicable to other energy systems and its households sector • Great possibilities for energy savings • Key element is enforcing current building codes for all buildings that are being built or refurbished • Results show that heat pumps ill have significant role in future households allowing significant savings regarding final energy demand. • One of the conclusions drawn from the presented results is the fact that Croatian national energy demand scenarios regarding households sector needs to be considered with a certain reserve since bottom up modelling shows a certain room for energy savings improvements.
