The European market for energy efficiency services in the residential sector and the effects of existing energy efficiency policies on its development

Résumé

A main objective of the Energy Service Directive (ESD) is to stimulate the market for energy efficiency services (EES) and for the delivery of other energy efficiency improvement measures to final consumers. In order to achieve this objective, the ESD gives a special role to energy companies. On the other hand, there are energy service companies (ESCOs) and further actors ready to expand their business in the field of energy efficiency services. Against this background, it is important to know about the status and barriers of the markets of EES in Europe, how and to which extent existing energy efficiency policies foster or hinder EES market development, and how energy efficiency policies should be designed and implemented to stimulate this market. Since 2009 the IEE project ChangeBest is committed to assisting energy companies and ESCOs in entering the EES business, starting with an empirical analysis of the existing EES markets and the respective economic and policy frameworks. The paper will discuss the effects of the existing energy efficiency policies on the provision of EES for the residential sector in the EU as analysed in the ChangeBest project and present the preliminary project conclusions and recommendations for the formulation and implementation of energy efficiency policies that can stimulate EES provision in this sector. This will be done firstly by presenting an overview of the development status of the EES markets in the countries covered by the ChangeBest project and by discussing how existing national and EU policy measures positively or negatively influence the demand for, and supply of, EES for the residential sector in these countries. Then existing EES market potentials in the residential sector will be briefly discussed and the main preliminary ChangeBest project conclusions and recommendations on the formulation of policy measures which are most suitable for the exploitation of these potentials will be presented.
