Energy efficiency directive (COM 2011/370) The new additional obligations in the energy efficiency directive are (source ESMIG): Billing based on actual energy consumption with a (bi-)monthly minimum frequency Provision of a consumer interface for better control and management of energy consumption and minimum requirements for informative billing.

EU directive 2012/27/EU Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on energy efficiency, amending Directives 2009/125/EC and 2010/30/EU and repealing Directives 2004/8/EC and 2006/32/EC Article 1 Subject matter and scope This Directive establishes a common framework of measures for the promotion of energy efficiency within the Union in order to ensure the achievement of the Union’s 2020 20 % headline target on energy efficiency and to pave the way for further energy efficiency improvements beyond that date.

EU directive 2012/27/EU Article 9 Metering Member States shall ensure that, in so far as it is tech­nically possible, financially reasonable and proportionate in relation to the potential energy savings, final customers for electricity, natural gas, district heating, district cooling and domestic hot water are provided with competitively priced indi­vidual meters that accurately reflect the final customer’s actual energy consumption and that provide information on actual time of use. Article 11 Cost of access to metering and billing information Member States shall ensure that final customers receive all their bills and billing information for energy consumption free of charge and that final customers also have access to their consumption data in an appropriate way and free of charge.

Industry group: ESMIG ESMIG covers all aspects of Smart Metering electricity, gas, water and heat measurement. Member companies supports the provisions relating to metering and billing in article 8 and annex VI Advocates that one of the feedback channels (about consumption) should be an In-Home Display (IHD) Other feedback channels: website, SMS, smart phone app, informative bill, etc. The most efficient and secure way to deliver direct feedback information to consumers, e.g. via displays, informative billing and dynamic tariffs, is advanced Smart Metering solutions.

Industry group: ESMIG European Smart Metering Industry Group (ESMIG) 2006/32/EC, 2009/72/EC and 2009/73/EC do not provides coherent definition of Smart Meter ESMIG definition (recommendation for EC directives): ‘Smart Meter’ means an electronic device that can measure the consumption of energy, adding more information than a conventional meter, and can transmit data using a form of electronic communication. A key feature of a Smart Meter is the ability to provide bi-directional communication between the consumer and supplier/operator. It should also promote services that facilitate energy savings within the home. In addition to bi-directional communication, a Smart Meter may have any or all of the other additional functionalities identified by Mandate M/441 on Smart Metering, but for the purposes of this Directive must be connected to an interface described in Annex VI, 1.1; Source: http://www.esmig.eu/press/filestor/eed_pp

Smart Metering Provision in 2009/72/EC Electricity directive (2009/72/EC) concrete timeline 10-year “deployment period” for Smart Meters starting in September 2012. The mandated targets given in the electricity directive are to cover 80% of European households by 2020 to achieve full coverage by 2022 ESMIG welcomes the provisions on metering and billing in the draft energy efficiency directive as they make some solid proposals and attempts to fill significant gaps in current legislation.

Smart Metering Provision in EPBD Further, on 23 April 2009, the European Parliament, in its first reading of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), voted to expedite the implementation by requiring that all new buildings and buildings undergoing renovation be equipped with Smart Meters http://www.esmig.eu/newsstor/press-release-european-parliament-expresses-its-broad-support-for-smart-metering

Measuring the smartness of El. Grid KPIs (What makes the el. Systems smart? How can this smartness be measured?) Not clear framework exists today for Benchmarking the smart grids Characteristics derived from U.S. DoE smart grid system report These characteristics enable informed participation of customers: Advanced meters Dynamic pricing signal Smart appliances DSM Prosumer Measuring the smartness of El.

Conclusion EU directive 2012/27/EU Definition of Smart Meter by ESMIG Article 9 Metering – individual meters metering actual consumption Article 11 Cost of access to metering and billing information – free of charge access to consumption data – Interfaces for consumer Definition of Smart Meter by ESMIG Feedback channels (by ESMIG) - In-Home Display (IHD), website, SMS, smart phone app, informative bill, etc. + is advanced Smart Metering solutions. 10-year “deployment period” for Smart Meters starting in September 2012. The mandated targets given in the electricity directive are to cover 80% of European households by 2020 to achieve full coverage by 2022 Smart Metering Provision in EPBD – new renovated building Smart Cities Initiative – 10 demonstration cities till 2020 Measuring smartness of the grid KPIs – Advance meters
