To support the commitments of the PCF, the Governments outlined a series of aspirational goals for energy performance of key equipment technologies and market transformation needs in a report released at the Energy and Mines Minister’s Conference in August 2017 entitled Market transformation strategies for energy-using equipment in the building sector.1 Governments are focusing their collaborative efforts on market transformation for residential windows, space heating and water heating since they offer significant opportunities to reduce energy use (over 35%) when next generation technologies are installed. Over the last year, a series of stakeholder consultations were held to identify the barriers to market adoption of higher efficiency technologies needed to achieve the aspirational goals, and help develop this market transformation road map for windows, space heating, and water heating. The objective of this road map is to outline the key initiatives that provide solutions to the market barriers identified, as well as their respective timelines, roles and responsibilities for each stakeholder group, and indicators to track success over time. This road map serves as a basis for collaborative government-stakeholder activities between now and 2025. With its successful implementation, this plan will pave the way to broad market adoption of next-generation, clean technologies needed for a low carbon building sector. Figure ES-1 provides an overview of the road map, which builds off the 2017 market transformation strategies report. It includes the following: Initiatives to address market barriers: The road map summarizes high priority initiatives to address key technical and market barriers for residential window, space heating, and water heating technologies given that each equipment technology has unique challenges in their respective market. Initiatives are grouped in the following seven steps: product development, lab and field testing, large-scale demonstrations, information and awareness, training, incentives, and codes and standards. The initiatives are also sequenced over time and mapped against the barrier they help overcome. Roles and responsibilities: While Governments play a lead role in many of the initiatives because they have access to the tools, levers and resources required, lead and supporting roles are identified for other players in the market place such as utilities, manufacturers, builders, contractors, research organizations, industry organizations, and codes and standards development organizations. Coordination and support from all players are essential to ensure sustained momentum in the market place. 1 Available at: https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/sites/www.nrcan.gc.ca/files/emmc/pdf/Market-Transformation-Strategies_en.pdf 3 Tracking progress: As Governments and stakeholders implement the road map initiatives, they must track the progress of each initiative in overcoming the technical and market barriers.

  • Microgeneration Strategy: Progress Report
    MICROGENERATION STRATEGY Progress Report JUNE 2008 Foreword by Malcolm Wicks It is just over two years since The Microgeneration Strategy was launched. Since then climate change and renewables have jumped to the top of the global and political agendas. Consequently, it is more important than ever that reliable microgeneration offers individual householders the chance to play their part in tackling climate change. In March 2006, there was limited knowledge in the UK about the everyday use of microgeneration technologies, such as solar thermal heating, ground source heat pumps, micro wind or solar photovolatics. Much has changed since then. Thousands of people have considered installing these technologies or have examined grants under the Low Carbon Buildings Programme. Many have installed microgeneration and, in doing so, will have helped to reduce their demand for energy, thereby cutting both their CO2 emissions and their utility bills. The Government’s aim in the Strategy was to identify obstacles to creating a sustainable microgeneration market. I am pleased that the majority of the actions have been completed and this report sets out the excellent progress we have made. As a consequence of our work over the last two years, we have benefited from a deeper understanding of how the microgeneration market works and how it can make an important contribution to a 60% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2050. Building an evidence base, for example, from research into consumer behaviour, from tackling planning restrictions and from tracking capital costs, means that we are now in a better position to take forward work on building a sustainable market for microgeneration in the UK.

This calls for methods of analysing the dynamics of energy systems in view of technology change and policy instruments for effecting and accelerating technology change. In this thesis, such methods have been developed, applied, and assessed. Two types of methods have been considered, methods of analysing and projecting the dynamics of future technology change and methods of evaluating policy instruments effecting technology change, i.e. market transformation programmes. Two methods are focused on analysing the dynamics of future technology change; vintage models and experience curves. Vintage models, which allow for complex analysis of annual streams of energy and technological investments, are applied to the analysis of the time dynamics of electricity demand for lighting and air-distribution in Sweden.

  • Non-Transmission Alternatives When Trying to Eliminate Bottlenecks.”3
    New England Demand Response Initiative How Much Transmission Do We Need? How Do We Know? And Who Should Pay? Thinking Twice About Transmission And Its Alternatives NEDRI Discussion Memorandum Richard Cowart Draft 1 - May 28, 2002 (A) Introduction Electric transmission policies have traditionally been a low-profile topic even among electric utility executives and utility regulators; and environmental professionals rarely had cause to be concerned about them, except in the rare transmission siting case. That world has changed dramatically. Transmission decisions are now critically related to the nature of regional electricity markets, the environmental footprint of the electric industry, and to the future of distributed resources, including demand-side resources. Since the passage of the EPACT in 1992, the FERC has been engaged in a series of complex open-access and regional market initiatives that greatly change the role of transmission in the electric system. Transmission is no longer just an implementation tool for utilities to deliver power within integrated franchises, but is an avenue of commerce to connect multiple generators to multiple load centers, often at great geographic distance. In its recently-released National Transmission Grid Study (NTGS), the DOE concludes that transmission constraints increase electricity costs and decrease electric system reliability to consumers in many regions of the country. The study identifies a number of policies that could promote investments in new transmission facilities, but also notes that

  • R&D Programs in Support of Market Transformation
    R&D Programs in Support of Market Transformation: An Approach to Evaluation Helen Kim, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Paul A. DeCotis, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority David Coup, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Dana Levy, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Jennifer Ellefsen, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Mark Coleman, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority ABSTRACT The New York Energy $martsm program, administered by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), and funded through a non-by- passable electric system benefits charge, offers a diverse portfolio of programs. Collectively, the New York Energy $martsm program is designed to achieve a number of broad public policy goals including developing self-sustaining markets and demand for energy efficiency products and services. In addition to various energy efficiency programs, the New York Energy $martsm program supports activities more traditionally defined as research and development (R&D). Whereas the evaluation of market development programs is centered on market indicators such as increased awareness, market share, and infrastructure development, evaluation of R&D programs, if conducted at all, is usually project specific and seldom linked to market outcomes. This paper suggests a framework for linking R&D to market development, showing how increasing the flow of information between R&D and market deployment activities can accelerate the achievement of market development goals. Examples are provided to illustrate the interactions among the various stages on the path to market transformation, and to present a model for R&D evaluation that stresses its contribution to market development and product deployment.
