  1. A joint declaration by the European renewable energy sector to urge for a directive on heating and cooling from renewable energy sources by Oliver Schäfer, Policy Advisor of the European Renewable Energy Council - EREC Edinburgh, 6th Interparliamentary Forum on Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, Thursday 07 October 2005

  2. Price developments pellets - heating oil Price per 10.000 kWh (final energy) Sources: IWO Österreich, Tecson GmbH, Ökowärme ESV-Design 051051en

  3. The end of the oil-era? 1999 2003 oil-heating 36 % 7 % renewable energy technologies 65 % 32 % ESV-Design 051120en

  4. Joint Declaration, Initiated by EREC and it`s members

  5. Supported by more than 40 groups • From 19 different member states • Ranging from major NGOs to business chambers, IEA-SHC, energy agencies and european associations

  6. RES Heating and Cooling The neglected giant

  7. Final Energy Consumption by Sector EU-25 20 % Electricity (incl. cooling) 31 % Transport Electricity (incl. cooling) Heat Transport 49 % Heat Source: Eurostat figures elaborated by EREC

  8. Decisive role of RES-H to reach the EU 12 % target Directive needed

  9. Why Action at EU Level? • Needed to reach EU renewables targets • Missing element in the EU regulatory framework: RES-E, Biofuels......RES-H • Buildings Directive: too unspecific, too slow • Uneven growth among EU-Member States

  10. Uneven Growth

  11. Contribution of Renewables to Heat Production (1995-2020)

  12. Contribution of Renewable Energy to Heat Production (1995-2020)

  13. Elements for a RES-H Directive • Clear purpose: increase RES-heat use • EU & National targets similar to RES-E • Framework for successful support schemes • Establishment of reliable statistics • Removal of administrative barriers • Reporting obligations for Member States • Monitoring of progress

  14. You are welcome to support the initiative!
