1 Maximizing Energy Savings from Energy Efficient Home Appliances By Irene Beucler, Energy Consultant 26 September 2018 IBEF

2 Lebanon s energy consumption in the building sector The building sector accounts for almost 80% of the total national energy consumption in Lebanon. Among which 36% is being consumed in residential buildings. Estimated actual share of each type of building sector in the total energy consumption of the building sector in Lebanon in 2015 LCEC Energy Indicator Report

3 A large potential for Energy Savings In residential buildings, energy savings can be reached by having more energy-efficient equipment for: Cooling Heating Washing Lighting Estimated actual share of each type of building sector in the total energy consumption of the building sector in Lebanon in 2015 LCEC Energy Indicator Report

4 Why engage in Energy Efficiency improvements? 4 Achievements of appliance energy efficiency standards and labeling programs

5 Lebanon s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Lebanon has defined its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution, including a reduction in power demand through energy-efficiency measures of: A minimum of 3% by 2030 (unconditional target) Up to 10% reduction by 2030 (conditional target - if additional international support is provided) 5

6 Our national targets of energy savings The second National Energy Efficiency Action Plan sets the following targets of energy savings by 2020: a total of 1.5 TWh, including: 149 GWh of savings in buildings, of which: 55.6 GWh from more energy efficient equipment End-use energy savings by

7 Energy Savings from more energyefficient home appliances With the introduction of a Standards and Labeling program, national savings range between 10% and 25% Achievements of appliance energy efficiency standards and labeling programs IEA 7

8 Home appliances in Lebanese dwellings With an average one million dwellings, Lebanon is a relatively a small market for household appliances, however the average dwelling is well-equipped: 100% of dwellings are equipped with basic household appliances More than 80% of the dwellings also have: UNDP CEDRO Willingness to pay report survey amongst more than 600 Lebanese households

9 Italian brands of home appliances in the Lebanese market A preliminary market study conducted by the LCEC indicates that Italian brands represent up to 20% of the market share for some appliances (specifically for washing machines, driers and dishwashers) 9

11 The cooperation between IMELS and LCEC Our common concerns Support the Lebanese Government in achieving its environmental commitments by generating energy savings and reducing GHG emissions Foster innovation in the sector and promote energyefficient and environmentally-friendly technologies Transfer Italian know-how to local manufacturer Incentivize the Lebanese retailers and importers of home appliances to shift towards highly energyefficient technologies Raise awareness on energy savings and environmental impacts 11

12 The cooperation between IMELS and LCEC Details about the program 1. Assess the current technology available in the Lebanese market 1. Identify new opportunities for suppliers of energyefficient home appliances 1. Design a new financing mechanism leading to the distribution of rebates to end-users, directly or through local retailer shops, improving end-users access to highly energy-efficient technology 1. Organize trainings aimed at retailers staff on highly energy-efficient technology and energy savings 1. Launch a global awareness campaign 12

13 Other key next steps for Lebanon 1. Set the Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for home appliances in Lebanon 2. Build up the local manufacturer s capacity on developing highly energy-efficient equipment 3. Move from voluntary to mandatory MEPS 4. Design a National Labeling Scheme 13
