Energy Efficient Procurement – Examples and Lessons Learned Paul Schwengels Environmental Protection Agency Workshop on Public Sector Energy Efficiency Procurement Mumbai, India September 20, 2005

Why Energy Efficiency Procurement In the Public Sector? Situation Government is biggest buyer of energy-using products Product choices not driven by life cycle cost  Results in significant energy waste Successful international program models and technology specifications available

Program Examples: Buying Energy-Efficient Products China– phased procurement program tied to energy labels South Korea – requirements for 55 product types Japan – “Law Promoting Green Purchasing” (2000) for office equip., appliances, A/C, lighting Australia – government purchasing of Energy Star and low-standby products, “Managing Energy in Local Govt.,” ICLEI Green Purchasing Mexico – ICLEI municipal purchasing U.S. – Federal purchasing (FEMP); State/local Energy Star® purchasing

Public Procurement Opportunity Lower government energy use and operating costs quickly  reduces capacity shortages, local pollution and greenhouse gases Opportunity to lead the rest of the market Market transformation response to government demand  volume + competition  lower prices Pull the market for energy efficient products

RD&D Government Leadership Helps Transform the Market Original Distribution Efficiency Number of Units New Distribution “Market-pull”: Information, Rebates, Public Sector Leadership Efficiency standards

India/Mumbai Situation Electricity Shortages – pressure to reduce government energy use Government building stock  Many have no central HVAC  purchased equipment – lighting, fans, room AC, etc., may be largest energy uses Opportunity to save energy  No current energy performance specs  Variations in equipment energy use, quality and cost BEE is moving forward with national labeling and standards for equipment

US Federal Energy Management Program U.S. Federal Government is the nation’s single largest user of energy. $9.7 billion Federal annual energy bill –500,000 facilities at 8,000 locations nationwide –Vehicles & Equipment: $5.0 billion Estimated savings $1.4 billion to date –2003 data show reduced energy use by 25%;

Building Retrofits New Construction Partnerships+ Equipment Procurement Management, Maintenance, & Operations Utility & Load Management FEMP’s Portfolio of Services Financing Technical Assistance OutreachPolicy Targeted Opportunities: Customer Needs FEMP Program Elements

FEMP - Procurement Energy Policy Act of “guidelines to encourage acquisition and use by all federal agencies of energy- efficient products.” The Federal government spends about $10 billion annually on energy-using products and services for its buildings, operations, and transportation. Energy-efficient products save 10%-50%  Energy Star and FEMP purchasing criteria can save US$ 1 billion/ year (all public agencies including state, local)  Reduce greenhouse gases: 4+ million tons C/yr.

Setting Priorities for Government Purchasing Significant energy use Large government purchasing volume Potential energy/cost savings  range of efficiencies (lowest to highest) Energy testing and rating method Product efficiency data available  product lists  energy ratings/labels  “quality-mark” (e.g., Energy Star™) Several suppliers  price, availability, domestic sources (?) Consistency with other programs

FEMP Product Purchasing Recommendations 45 energy-efficient product purchasing recommendations, ranging from large chillers and boilers to exit signs and fluorescent ballasts  Coordination with ENERGY STAR® program  Low Standby Power Products List  Rating systems based on significant DOE Research

China - Government Procurement Program Managed by NDRC and Min of Finance  Many other government Agencies involved Implemented by China Certification Center for Energy Conservation Products (CECP) Technical support from PEPS, USEPA, Energy Foundation, and other international sponsors

Background Recognized as a priority during “Energy Conservation Week” 2001 Survey of energy consumption of products and equipment, procurement procedures  3 Central govt and 12 local Agencies  Representative range of scale, location, level of development, type of Agency Estimated government energy use 5% of total, 13% government finance budget

Policy Issued Dec 2004 – Phased implementation  January 2005 – central government offices in Beijing and provincial facilities in each provincial capitol.  By the end of 2006 – all levels of government including central, provincial, and local. “government” sector also includes schools and hospitals as well as offices

Products Initial list includes energy and water saving equipment already covered by CECP’s endorsement label Refrigerators Room Air Conditioners Double Capped Fluorescents for General Lighting Service Self-ballasted Fluorescents for General Lighting Service Televisions Computers Printers Toilets Faucets

Expected Results Preliminary analysis by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory “Technical potential” assumes successful implementation of current requirements 2015 Annual savings  4.6 TWh electricity  2.9 Billion Yuan energy savings  4 Million Metric Tonnes CO2

Lessons Learned: Purchasing Programs 1) Need clear policy and regulations/laws  communicated repeatedly to buyers (and sellers) 2) Make the efficient product the easiest to buy:  efficiency as the default choice  use first-cost to choose among efficient products 3) Keep the guidance simple: levels, lists, labels ! 4) Coordinate purchasing with other programs: (Product testing/ labels, construction spec’s, rebates, tax credits – and “green purchasing”) 5) Seek active private sector involvement  Manufacturers, vendors, ESCOs, architects  Clear, consistent efficiency requirements (lead- time when updating)

Life-Cycle Cost Barriers Information (energy savings vs price) Staff time, effort, expertise Procurement rules (or “perceived” rules, common practice!) Budget constraints Safest choices:  replace-in-kind or  lowest-price NIMB (= “Not In My Budget”!)

Life-Cycle Cost Solutions 1)Clear information, easy to find 2)Make $ savings more obvious; simplify LCC calculations 3)Lower the cost of efficient products:  volume + competition  common technical specs 4)Finance the first-cost; capitalize future savings 5)Reverse the burden of proof!

Energy-Efficient Purchasing and Energy Labels Labels make it easier for buyers to select efficient products Government purchasing encourages private sector support for energy labels (adds value to labeled products!)
