1 National Agency for Energy Conservation
Improved Performance through Higher Standards: Energy Labeling and MEPS; the Tunisian experience Presentation by: Fethi HANCHI Director - Division of Rational Utilization of Energy

2 Contents The energy supply & demand background
Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Main Results Success Factors & Lessons Learned

3 Energy supply & demand background
Since 2000, Tunisia has become a net energy importer. In 2012, the energy independence ratio was approximately 80% with a deficit of 1.6 Million toe. This is mainly due to the decrease of the resources and the rapid growth in demand the energy deficit is dominated by natural gas (75%). This energy is the main source of electricity generation. Surplus Deficit 2012  1635 ktoe

4 Energy supply & demand background
Rapid growth of the peak load that generates increasing needs of investment in electricity generation capacity

5 Energy supply & demand background
From 2004 to 2012, the share of energy expenditure in GDP has increased from 5% to 14%!!

6 Energy supply & demand background
Energy Subsidies has put tremendous budgetary pressure on government. From 2004 to 2012, Energy Subsidies has increased from 0,5% to 3% Of GDP! 7000 Million TND

7 Energy supply & demand background
Electricity is among the most heavily subsidized energy. In 2012 the share of the subsidy was 49% of electricity cost. In other words, the State shares the cost of kWh with the consumer. 49% 40% 39% 31%

8 Energy supply & demand background
Increase of housing electricity consumption about 60% in 10 years 10 years60%

9 Energy supply & demand background household equipment rate
Refrigerator, TV and lighting are the most energy-consuming equipments with a total share of 79% The consumption of AC equipment s is not significant but its contribution to the peak load is very important. x1000 2004 2009 annual growth rate household equipment rate Lighting 14716 17118 3,3% 100% TV 2279 2708 3,8% 96% Refrigerator 1982 2364 3,9% 92% AC 202 437 23,2% 15% WM 373 780 21,9% 50%

10 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Feasibility Study Institutional and Capability Building Implementation and Promotion Monitoring & Evaluation

11 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Feasibility Study Production and consumption analysis and study of prioritization of products for labeling. International best practices and experiences study. Assessing the capacity to develop and implement a labeling program, including: Labeling programs policies and regulation; Standards/specifications; Stakeholders requirements and market needs; Institutional and relevant agencies preparation; Resources and capabilities, including funds, human resources, local manufacturing and testing facilities.

12 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Institutional and Capacity Building Identification of national execution and implementation agencies & organizations ANME (Cordination, monitoring & Evaluation) Ministry of Trade (Manufacturers, Importers & Retailers Ministry of Industry (Manufacturers) INNORPI (Norms and Standards ) CETIME (Testing facilities) FEDELEC (Professional organization, communication, information); ODC (Consumer rights Organization; NGO);

13 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Develop testing capacity
Institutional and Capacity Building Develop testing capacity Implementation of testing facilities (CETIME) : Refrigerator  2002; AC equipement2008; Lighting2010; Testing protocol (INNORPI); Training (all Stakeholders); Conducting pilot tests (60 refrigeration equipments, 50 AC equipments). Refrigerator  60 equipments; AC  50 equipments;

14 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Implementation and Promotion
Energy Conservation Law (2004) : Refrigerator  2004; AC equipement2009; Lighting being promulgated; WM in development;

15 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Implementation and Promotion
Training & information dissemination: Manufacturers, importers; Retailers support; Trade inspectors;

16 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Implementation and Promotion
1 2 3 X 4 04/2009 X 5 X 07/2007 6 X 7 X 07/2006 8

17 X X X X X Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Implementation and Promotion MEPS (Minimum Energy Performance Standards) 1 2 3 X 4 01/2012 X 5 01/2011 X 6 X 01/2010 7 X 8

18 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs Implementation and Promotion
Awareness & communication campaign : All media (TV, radio, newspapers) Mailing Flyers, Posters Field campaigns Meetings, seminars and exhibitions

19 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Monitoring, Evaluation and Revision Monitoring Labeling process monitoring CETIME (testing) Manufacturers importers ANME (Labeling Levels) Retailers Ministry of Trade

20 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Monitoring, Evaluation and Revision Monitoring Labeling performance monitoring including display label quality, number of applications / manufacturers, number of products models / types and production / sale number of labeled products.

21 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Monitoring, Evaluation and Revision Evaluation Market evaluation

22 Steps of Energy Labeling & MEPS Programs
Monitoring, Evaluation and Revision Evaluation Market evaluation 100% 100% 46% 18% 10%

23 Main results Energy Saving Cost Saving Subsidy Saving 218 ktoe
125 MTND Cost Saving 46 MTND Subsidy Saving

24 Success Factors & Lessons Learned
A participatory multi-stakeholder approach is the most effective way of insuring the success of the strategy elaboration and implementation Control and market monitoring is an essential action to win consumer trust: Ministry of Trade have conducted in 2013 a large campaign of market surveillance to verify conformity of products tested against products marketed Communication is a powerful tool to promote high performance and efficient technologies: ANME is developing a new communication strategy to promote Energy Labeling Programs Governments must create a win - win situation between the state and the consumer: ANME is developing a mechanism to promote 1 million high performance refrigerators ( replacement & new acquisition)
