Introduction - 1
In assessing energy performance of buildings according to European regulations:
No unified approach in determination PEFs (different calculation methodologies, different electricity mixes)
Evolving share of renewable energy
=> changing PEFs influence gas vs. electricity in heating
=> increased need for flexibility in electricity supply
Goal: assess effect of changing PEFs on building practices in European countries

1. EPBD and Primary Energy Factors
EPBD Art 3: ‘Primary energy factors used for the determination of the primary energy use may be based on national or regional yearly average values and may take into account relevant European standards’
EPBD Annex I: ‘The energy performance of a building shall be expressed in a transparent manner and shall include an energy performance indicator and a numeric indicator of primary energy use, based on primary energy factors per energy carrier, which may be based on national or regional annual weighted averages or a specific value for on-site production. The methodology for calculating the energy performance of buildings should take into account European standards and shall be consistent with relevant Union legislation, including Directive 2009/28/EC’

Delivered electricity:
All countries: factor for RE and nuclear unclear
NL, FR, SE: political arguments rather than algorithm only
Produced electricity (≤ electricity demand):
Can subtract RE with same PEF as delivered electricity
Exported electricity:
0 or lower PEF (NL)

3. Developments electricity mix until 2050
Three scenario’s:
1. 2020: National Renewable Energy Action Plans
2050: EREC/Greenpeace energy [r]evolution scenarios 2010 => corridor of possibilities:
2. A relatively conservative reference scenario based on the International Energy Agency’s World Energy Outlook 2009
3. The energy [r]evolution scenario with the aim of drastically reducing the world’s CO2 emissions and thus exploiting renewables to a very high level

33
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
Relevant observations national PEFs delivered electricity:
Most PEFs hover around 2,6
Sweden: 2
Spain: very conservative PEF
Poland: optimistic PEF
Most countries take RE>0
2020: Gradual change in PEFs to ~ 2
34
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
Relevant observations produced electricity:
countries investigated have chosen not to differentiate in the PEF for delivered and produced electricity
Electric heating (heat pump) allows more RE to have effect on calculated energy performance
35
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
PEF delivered electricity:
Lower PEF => stimulus for fuel shift fossil => electric in heating
Lower PEF => lower drive for efficient equipment (ventilation, lighting, air conditioning)
If Spain would start using lower PEF, likely to have implications for electric vs. fuel based heating
36
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
PEF produced electricity:
If coupling between PEFdelivered and PEFproduced retained: Lower PEF => less incentive for RE
37
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
Flexible electricity mix – demand side measures:
Heat pumps (in winter)
Air conditioning + ice storage (in summer)
Electric heating in passive homes
Cooling applications in services sector
Micro and mini-CHP (+ heat storage)
Electric and plug-in hybrid cars
38
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
Outlooks PEFs
39
4. Implications for technologies in building sector
Outlooks PEFsLower PEFs can favour electrificationLower PEFs should not lead to lower stimulus for efficiencyLower PEFs can imply lower stimulus for local RE
Zero Energy Buildings:Separate calculation of demand and supply => first demand minimised, then decisions on supply (locally produced / grid)Taking into account appliances in calculation => more reward RE
40
5. Recommendations
1.
For countries that use PEFs that deviate substantially from those calculated based on their national electricity mix, more work should be done to find out the details of the decision-making process behind the PEFs previously used and those to be used in the future (Spain, Sweden).
41
5. Recommendations
2.
PEFs are used as a political factor, with sometimes unclear calculation methods. As a minimum, the calculation method to produce a PEF should be documented, especially for renewable electricity systems.
42
5. Recommendations
3.
Considering the rapid evolution of the electricity system, PEFs need regular revision, e.g. every 3 to 5 years.
43
5. Recommendations
4.
Calculation methods for zero energy buildings can provide new ways of calculating energy performance for buildings that do not have negative effects of lower PEFs.
44
5. Recommendations
5.
In move toward zero energy buildings, there is a case for taking appliances into account in the electricity demand. => greater reward for renewable electricity on-site
