Energy Policy National energy plan - Targets
“Energiewende” (Energy Transition) as overall energy concept • GHG emissions reduction of 40% by 2020 and >80% by 2050 (over 1990)
• Increase of renewable energy (60% of gross energy use by 2050) • Complete exit from nuclear power by 2022
• 50% primary energy consumption reduction by 2050 (over 2008) • 2.1% p.a. improvement in energy productivity • Electricity consumption reduction of 10% by 2020 and 25% by 2050 • 2% annual building renovation rate • 40% reduction in final energy consumption
• Investment of €20 Billion in HV grid development for the next 10 years
• Additional larger investment needed for distribution grid from 27.5 to 42.5 B€

Energy Policy Renewable Energy
The NREAP for 2050 is part of the energy concept “Energiewende”. • Expected RE share of 19.6% of gross energy consumption by 2020 to exceed EU-
target of 18% • 38.6% RE in electricity • 15.5% RE share in heating cooling • 13.2% share in the transportation sector
• Federal incentives in heating/ cooling include Market Incentive Program (MAP), Renewable Energy Heating Act (EEWärmeG), Cogeneration Act (KWKG), Energy Savings Regulation (EnEV) and funding programs by KfW
• Federal Emission Act (BImSchG), Energy Taxation Act (EnergieStG) and Biofuels Regulations (Biokraft-NachV, BioStNachV, BioKraftQuG) are programs in the transportation sector
• Regional and local incentive programs complement the national plan

Energy Policy Energy Efficiency
The NEEAP from 2014 defines Germany’s EE target of primary energy consumption reduction of 20% by 2020 and 50% by 2050 (over 2008).
• Focus on final energy consumption savings and energy transformation and distribution efficiency (e.g. via ETS, IED etc.)
• 3 core pillars: • Increase EE in the building sector • Establish EE as business and profitability model
• Increase individual responsibility for EE • 4 main categories of measures to achieve primary energy saving targets:
• Standards & target setting (e.g. EnEV) • Pricing/ taxation (e.g. truck toll, energy tax, emissions trading etc.)
• Investment incentives and programs (e.g. tax exemptions, building renovation financing
• Consulting and labelling programs (e.g. communal energy consulting)

Summary Issues
Stabilization of electricity prices to support transition to renewables • Currently, lowest wholesale prices but highest retail prices in Europe
• However, due to lower consumption, residential electricity bill similar to US
Fast and cost-effective approach to grid extension essential to integrate renewable energy production
• Increasing wind power generation in Northern Germany requires improved transmission infrastructure
• Decentralised PV & biomass production also requires LV grid expansion
Leading the market of energy storage • Driven by economics
• Not needed for balancing until after 2030

Summary Issues
Shutdown of all nuclear power plants and complete exit from nuclear energy by 2022 Proposed strict regulation for fracking and shale-gas-related activities to protect water resources and environment
• Restrictions by region and type of environment/ bedrock
• Additional restriction for general oil & gas drilling
Hard coal subsidies to run out by 2018 on both federal and “Länder” level
• Clear definition of future role of gas and coal in energy mix required to achieve CO2 emission targets

Conclusions
A large & diversified energy system with strong interconnections (with the exception of oil) Highest electricity Quality of Supply in the world (based on SAIDI) An example how to transit to a sustainable energy with limited indigenous resources (but path forward is uncertain) Leading the charge on renewables (up to now) A lesson on learning curves and getting support schemes right Is the current retail price structure (incl taxes) sustainable? Moderate liberalization in generation, advanced in market Over 1,000 grid operators; lots of small-scale community initiatives HV grid expansion difficult, even in a progressive country Energy transition requires ambitious implementation of EU Policy complemented with additional policies Role of lignite, coal and gas in Energiewende needs clarification

Energy Policy Transposition of EU Policy
RED – implemented in Germany via EEG (Enerneuerbare Energien Gesetz 2009, renewed 2012 and August 1st, 2014)
• EEG 2014 sets 3 main principles to boost wind and solar energy: • Investment protection through guaranteed feed-in tariffs and
connection requirement • No additional cost to Germany’s public budget • Innovation by decreasing feed-in-tariffs
• Target renewable energy share 18% (of total energy consumption) by 2020
• 30% of electricity consumption from renewable energy • 14% of heating energy from renewable energy
• Additional national regulations include Biomass regulation (BiomasseV) and Biomass-electricity-sustainability regulation (Bio-St-NachV)

Energy Policy Transposition of EU Policy
EED – mostly implemented in Germany • Article 7 as core of EED: Germany committed to cumulated savings of 1,758
Petajoule (PJ) until 2020
• Implemented energy efficiency measures have contributed 1,476 PJ • Creation of dedicated institution (Bundesstelle für Energieeffizienz – BfEE) to
ensure EED target implementation
• NEEAP 2014 as basis for fulfilment of EED requirements and targets In Germany
• Recent transposition activities include
• Energiedienstleistungsgesetz (EDL-G) modified to accommodate Article 8 of EED (energy audits)
• KWK-Kosten-Nutzen-Vergleich-Verordnung (KNV-V) to implement Article 14 of EED
• Introduction of additional voluntary “market-oriented incentive system" (MEAS)

Energy Policy Transposition of EU Policy
EPBD • Energy Savings Act (EnEG) 2013 creates the legal basis for further regulations (e.g.
EnEV) • Heat insulation/ reduction of energy loss • Prescribes effective use of energy for heating and cooling during planning
phase • Energy Savings Regulation (EnEV) exists since 2009 with latest update in
November 2013 to implement EPBD • Applies to all new and existing buildings that require energy for heating or
cooling • “Energy passports” for “overall efficiency of buildings” – “lowest energy
building” standard as of 2021 for all new buildings • Renewable Energies Heat Act (EEWärmeG)
• Addresses requirements on renewable energy in the heating sector

Energy Policy Transposition of EU Policy
Internal electricity and gas markets • German Energy Act (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz) (EnWG) as the main
federal legal framework for all energy market related regulations and acts • Liberalization and deregulation as key objectives • Ongoing efforts to remove contractual bureaucracy and provide
marketing options for energy from renewable sources • Grid Expansion Acceleration Act (Netzausbaubeschleunigungs-Gesetz)
(NABEG) • Regulates the expansion of cross-border HV power line construction
with focus on expedited planning and permits • Federal Requirements Plan Act (Bundesbedarfsplangesetz) (BBPIG)
• Proposes HV transmission infrastructure projects in addition to projects already defined in the Power Grid Extension Act (EnLAG)

• Kreislaufwirtschaftsgesetz (KrWG)
• Gesetz über die Umweltverträglichkeitsprüfung (UVPG)
