IEC and energy efficiency .

1. Name Title Event Date Place IEC work for energy efficiency IEC and energy efficiency

2. Global reach: 173 countries IEC CO Geneva IEC-LARC São Paulo IEC-APRC Singapore IEC- ReCNA Boston IEC-AFRC Nairobi IECEx /IECQ Sydney 86 Members 87 Affiliates

3. Only international standardized form of certification Biggest working multilateral recognition agreement One test…one certification… many countries

4. 4 Conformity Assessment Systems IECEE – safety, security, performance at home, office, medical, manufacturing, public spaces, Smart Grid, EVs IECEx – all verification needs of Ex industry IECQ – electronic components and supplier quality management IECRE – renewable energy

5. Verification and certification

6. Scope of the IEC Underpins global trade in electrical and electronic devices, Safety, security of data, people and the environment innovation Infrastructure development Smart urbanization, Transportation Energy access and efficiency

7. Global knowledge platform <20 000 experts >200 TC/SCs >10 000 International Standards ca. 80% of European standards = identical to IEC International Standards Testing and certification

8. More usable energy Less waste IEC definition of energy efficiency Ratio: output of performance vs. input of energy 8 Less energy used Same performance Same energy use Better performance

9. Benefits of EE improvements 9 Increased energy security Positive impact on public budget Better health Reduced emissions Power to more people

10. Barriers to energy efficiency 10 Lack of awareness of savings potential: Focus on: devices instead of systems = lower ROI Low initial cost vs. life-cycle gains Lack of incentive: user ≠ payer

11. Improved energy use = real EE 11 Slow and difficult: Modify behaviour of people Fast and easier: Build EE technology solutions into devices and systems

12. EE: the role of International Standards 12 Calculation methods, metrics, processes to measure, compare and improve EE Reliable, consistent, reproducible, comparable Foundation for energy labels

13. IEC: many EE relevant Standards 13 Electricity generation, distribution and use by billions of devices and systems Supporting the roll-out of energy efficient technologies Defining many aspects impacting EE

14. EE: System thinking needed 14 Greater efficiency gains compared to individual devices Systems approach: Process improvements + more efficient technologies = up to 80% additional efficiency gains

15. Generation: select the right technology 15 Inefficient: Burning fossil fuels: only 30 % to 50% efficiency Efficient: Hydropower: near 100% efficient Clean, reliable Useful for integration of solar and wind Renewables

16. Energy storage 16 Important for EE – when the wind blows and the sun shines Eliminate need for expensive/polluting generators and idling power plants. Regulate power quality

17. 17 Smart Grid: maximise available energy and reduce power losses IEC Standards: important parameters for cable and transformer design Long distance UHV transmission – reduce losses by nearly 30% Smart Grid, transmission, distribution

18. 18 Solar, wind or small hydro + energy storage = less expensive access to electricity IECRE – verifies energy output of renewables LVDC = easier to connect renewables, reduces power losses through conversion Off-grid electrification and LVDC

19. 19 Electric motors = 50% of global electricity use Industry: machines, pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor belts, etc. EE motors = 50% less electricity IEC motor efficiency classification IECEE verifies performance Electric motors – big EE potential

20. 20 Heating and cooling: plasma torches, microwaves, radio-frequency electric fields, lasers, infrared, etc. Electric furnaces: 95% energy efficient, better process control, higher temperatures, lower environmental impact Industry – additional EE potential

21. 21 Lighting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, elevators, escalators, machinery, etc. Automation = significant EE potential EE technologies: Sensors, timers, LED lighting, heat pumps, motors, transformers Building automation

22. 22 By 2030 demand for artificial light 80% higher than today LED = high energy efficiency LED = complex electronic assemblies – IEC TC 34 prepares the Standards IECQ verifies quality of components Lighting

23. 23 Dishwashers, laundry appliances, cooking, cooling, freezing - IEC Standards by TC 59, TC 100 IEC work = efficiency increases: today’s refrigerators use 40% less energy Biggest EE opportunity: replacement of old appliances Consumer goods

24. 24 Biggest EE potential: move from combustion to electric or fuel-cell motors Boats, cars, buses, trains, metro, specialized vehicles used in warehouses, airports, mining, etc. IEC work underpins all forms of transportation Transportation

25. 25 Sensors and wireless communication devices running independently of external power sources Heat and movement captured by piezoelectric transducers Standards prepared by IEC TC 49 Energy harvesting
