National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency

NATIONAL MISSION ON ENHANCED ENERGY EFFICIENCY (NMEEE)

The National Action Plan on Climate Change was released by Honorable Prime Minister of India in June 2008

The Action Plan Outlines 8 Missions including National Mission on Enhanced Energy Efficiency (NMEEE)

Mission Goals

Market-based approaches to unlock energy efficiency opportunities, estimated to be about Rs. 74,000 Crores

By 2014-15:• Annual fuel savings in excess of 23 million toe

• Cumulative avoided electricity capacity addition of 19,000 MW

• CO2 emission mitigation of 98 million tons per year

NMEEE – Four New Initiatives

Para 4.2 of the National Action Plan on Climate Change mandates: A market based mechanism to enhance cost effectiveness of

improvements in energy efficiency in energy-intensive large industries and facilities, through certification of energy savings that could be traded. (Perform Achieve and Trade)

Accelerating the shift to energy efficient appliances in designated sectors through innovative measures to make the products more affordable. (Market Transformation for Energy Efficiency)

Creation of mechanisms that would help finance demand side management programmes in all sectors by capturing future energy savings. (Energy Efficiency Financing Platform)

Developing fiscal instruments to promote energy efficiency (Framework for Energy Efficient Economic Development)

Mission Document Preparation Process

Broadbased steering committee, with representation from various Ministries, CII, FICCI, NGOs, and academia• Two working groups prepared detailed approach papers

• Consolidated approach paper put on BEE website for comments

• NGO (Prayas Energy) organized public discussion on approach paper in Mumbai

• Comments taken into account by subcommittees while finalizing mission document

• Working group reports synthesized into draft Mission Document

Review by Ministries; discussion in PMO; Document finalized after incorporating comments

Specific Energy Consumption (SEC) reduction targets for the 685 energy-intensive units which are designated consumers under the Energy Conservation Act

• Targets would be % reduction of current SEC• Percentage reduction requirement based on:

- Sectoral targets to achieve the national goal

- Current SEC as a ratio of the best in the sector / groups within a sector

- Unit specific diversities (Next Slide)

• Target setting for the power generation and fertilizer sectors through the existing tariff-setting processes

• SEC measurement and verification by BEE through designated verifiers

Methodology:

(The market based mechanism through cost effectiveness approach for improving energy efficiency in energy intensive sectors)

Perform, Achieve & Trade (PAT) Mechanism

The energy usage pattern varies widely in industries of a particular sector due to various diversities like-Scale of Production (Installed Capacities) -Use of Raw Material- Process Technology- Vintage of Technology- O & M Practices- Type of Product Output etc.

PAT : Large Energy Usage Bandwidth

Factors of Diversity Most Affected Sectorsa) Raw Material Input Pulp & Paper, Fertilizer, Power Plant, Textilea) Quality of Raw Material / Fuel All sectorsa) Process & Technology Aluminium, Iron & steel, Chlor-Alkali, Papera) Final Product output Textile, Iron & Steel, Aluminiuma) Vintage All Sectorsa) Capacity Utililization All sectors

About 60% of total energy consumption of India

Not feasible to define a single norm/standard unless there is significant homogeneity amongst units in a sector

Energy efficiency improvement targets would have to be almost “unit specific”

Bands of differential targets to be created within each sector

Each DC mandated to reduce its SEC by a fixed percentage, based on its current SEC within the sectoral bandwidth

PAT - Setting Energy Consumption Norms

PAT - Energy Savings Certificates will incentivize actions

Energy Savings Certificates (ESCerts) issued to units where energy-efficiency improvements is in excess of targets

EScerts can be traded and used for compliance purposes

Trading can be carried out bilaterally or on special platforms created on the power exchanges

ESCerts will be maintained in the DEMAT form and each ESCert will be equivalent to 1 Metric Tonne of Oil Equivalent (MTOE)

PAT – Stakeholders for Energy Savings Certificates

The regulator in consultation with all the participants, agencies and central government is the body responsible for promotion of the ESCerts market mechanism

The key agencies/ stakeholders in the trading mechanism for ESCerts will include

• Scheme regulator and administrator• Central Registry• Designated Energy Auditors• State Designated Agencies• Designated Consumers• Power Exchanges

PAT mechanism would require amendments to the Energy Conservation Act

• Designated consumers to be able to show compliance through procurement of ESCerts

• Financial penalty for non compliance to be linked to quantum of non compliance

PAT – current status

Historical data of last five years on production and energy consumption by various energy sources are being collected from 685 DCs

Baseline SEC of each DC will be established by December 2010

The studies for fixing of targets in all 9 industrial sectors are underway and will be completed by March 2011

Baseline Energy Audit of each DC initiated The protocols for trading, monitoring and verification will

be set up by March 2011 Amendments to EC Act passed by both houses of

Parliment
