Basic statistical data on Euroregion

• The Neisse-Nisa-Nysa Euro-region is a union of
  three bordering countries in the heart of Europe
  including the adjoining areas of the Polish
  Republic, the Czech Republic and the Federal
  Republic of Germany.
• The Neisse-Nisa-Nysa Euroregion is the first
  cross-border collaboration region in CEECs, which
  has been officially funded in December 1991.
• The total territory of the Euroregion is 11,366
  km2, of which 3,444 km2 (30.3) is in Poland,
  3,545 km2 (31.2) is in the Czech Republic and
  4,377 km2 (38.5) in Germany.
• The total population of the Euroregion is 1,610
  thousand inhabitants, of which 437 thousand
  (27.1) lives in Poland, 479 thousand (29.8) is
  in the Czech Republic and 694 thousand (43.1) in
  Germany.
• The Euroregion is a part of the Black Triangle
  Region in Europe, where a very high level of
  natural resources utilisation and high level of
  pollution of the environment has resulted in very
  serious health problems for the population, and
  high damage of the environment and
  infrastructure.

27
Current situation in energy supply, CHP and
district heating (2)

• District heating large DH networks in all
  district centres and some other cities (32 in
  total)
• Large public CHP only in Liberec - 220 MWt and 12
  MWel
• Few old industrial medium-sized CHP plants
• Incineration plant only in Liberec, 24 MWt 2,5
  MWe

• natural gas (small-sized CHP, HOB)
• fuel oil (large CHP and HOB)

28
Future plans in energy supply, CHP and district
heating

• Electricity supply strengthening of some lines
• Gas supply extension of distribution networks in
  large to medium cities, nevertheless some parts
  of the region will be without gas even in the
  future
• Local energy sources biomass use for DH and
  local heating mostly in rural areas
• District heating no plans for extension of
  district heating, improvement of energy
  efficiency (currently 60-90)
• Continuation of fuel switching in DH from coal
  and fuel oil to gas and biomass
• Some ideas for small- to medium-sized CHP but no
  final decisions and no constructions

29
Current policy, legal and institutional framework

• Policy framework State Energy Policy of January
  2000
• Legal framework
• Energy Act of January 2001
• Energy Management Act of January 2001
• Clean Air Act (revised version expected in 2002)
• Pricing and Taxation Act, etc.
• Institutional framework
• Ministry of the Industry and Trade (MIT) -
  authorisation
• Ministry of the Environment (MoE)
• Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) - licensing, Price
  Decrees
• Operator of Power Market
• Office for Protection of Economic Competition
• Regional, district and municipal offices
  (Regional Planning and Building Code)

30
Regional Energy Policy

• Energy Management Act introduces the requirement
  of development of regional energy policies for 14
  regions, one of which is the new established
  Liberec region (1st January 2001), and for
  largest cities (regional centres).
• Energy Management Act recommends to development
  local/municipal energy policies based on regional
  policies.
• Regional/local energy Policies should follow the
  standard methodology given in the Decree to the
  Act.
• No policy has been developed for the Liberec
  region by now.

31
Energy Efficiency Regulation

• Energy Management Act of January 2001
• Chapter IV entitled " Measures to Enhance
  Efficient Use of Energy" deals specifically with
  the ways to promote energy efficiency such as
  minimum energy efficiency requirements, energy
  audits, energy auditors and co-generation of heat
  and power (CHP) with capacity of 5 MWt, 10 MWe
  (steam turbines), 2 MWe (gas turbine) and 0.8 MWe
  (gas engines).
• Decree 150/2001 on minimal energy efficiency of
  power and heat production, 12 April 2001
• Decree 151/2001 on energy efficiency of heat
  distribution, 12 April 2001
• Proposal of the Decree on energy efficiency of
  energy use in buildings

32
Main barriers for CHP and district heating (1)

• Policy Framework
• State Energy Policy does not specify any
  quantitative targets in CHP
• Energy Act does not meet requirements of the
  Energy Policy in CHP promotion
• Legal Framework
• Missing Decrees on bay-back tariffs for power and
  heat from CHP (new Price Decree of the Energy
  Regulatory Office)
• Obligation to purchase power and heat from CHP
  may create negative reaction on the market
• Mandatory energy audit for assessment on
  efficiency of CHP project may not an efficient
  tool

33
Main barriers for CHP and district heating (2)

• Financing
• Barriers in economics of CHP schemes
• Cost effectiveness of CHP installations is given
  by the share of total costs for production and
  distribution of energy and revenues for sales
• Internal rate of return is then low compared to
  other projects
• Capital intensity is high compared to other heat
  solutions and thus lower capital intensity with
  higher operational cost intensity is given
  priority
• Barriers in capital availability and requirements
• In-house capital is usually missing, mainly in
  case of municipalities
• Private capital is difficult to involve (high
  interest rate, high transaction costs, high risk
  perceived by the lender, etc.)
• The commercial risk of unreliable revenues from
  electricity and heat sales is high
• Czech investors have low credit-worthiness
• Limited public grant sources (State programme for
  energy savings)

34
Main barriers for CHP and district heating (2)

• Financing
• Additional barriers
• Complex and timely procedure of public
  procurement by local authorities which makes
  difficulties for ESCOs.
• In the governmental sector new financial rules
  allow for multiannual financing. The institutions
  have not yet become familiar with the rules. Need
  to be developed before ESCOs enter successfully
  this sector.
• The rules for depreciation of equipment are not
  convenient for energy technologies and make
  problems for new investments with high capital
  cost.
• A shortage of expertise exists to develop a
  bankable project proposal
• Investors have limited experience in working with
  foreign and international financial institutions
• Banks miss a long-term view on investment
  opportunities, well developed energy concepts and
  proper project development (knowledge)

35
Main barriers for CHP and district heating (3)

• Knowledge, awareness and capability
• In municipal CHP plants a lack of knowledge
  exists in operating the plants . This is
  sometimes solved by contracting to external
  organisations, or by selling the plant to a
  private owner.
• Many potential users and possible investors are
  not aware of the advantages of CHP, in particular
  of small-scale CHP.
• At the same time, experience is lacking in
  dealing with proposals for CHP investments.
• In addition, smaller banks may not have
  specialised skills in assessing the CHP project.
  This lack of experience leads to large overhead
  costs for the development of small CHP projects.
  At the same time, the need for external qualified
  assistance is underestimated, as well as the
  necessity op proper project development and its
  relevant costs.

36
Conclusions and recommendations Phase 2

• The Government should
• Eliminate price distortions between natural gas
  and electricity tariffs.
• Lift the current price control for household
  tariffs under a determined ceiling (price cap per
  square metre) to ensure that energy saving
  investments (possibly by ESCo, EPC) are made for
  mutual benefits of operators and customers.
• Promote cost-effective cogeneration and metering
  at building level.
• Reconsider the obligation to purchase electricity
  from CHP and setting minimal bay-back tarrif
• The regional and local municipalities should
• Development of Energy Policy and Regional Energy
  Efficiency/CHP Action Plan
• Make energy audits of existing DH networks, HOB
  and CHP plants
• Consider possible implementation of CHP schemes
  where economically viable

  source - installation of CHP is expected to
  contribute to increase of the efficiency of the
  source - 320 sources.
• Higher scenario possible installation of CHP
  source - installation of CHP unit is technically
  possible - 318 sources
• 4. Estimate of recommended installed capacity of
  CHP - based on calculated capacity utilisation /
  type of source / expected share of CHP on annual
  peak load

Current situation in CHP by country

• The total capacity of CHP sources differs
  considerably by each part of Euroregion.
• Czech part of Euroregion
• two large CHP - Liberec CHP plant (gas oil
  fired, 220,0 MWt and 12,0 MWe) and Liberec solid
  municipal waste incineration plant (24 MWt 2,5
  MWe)
• 31 small CHP unit operated using natural gas and
  sewage gas (2 units), total capacity 9 MWt and
  6,4 MWe.
• German part of Euroregion
• 19 CHP units using natural gas and sewage gas (2
  units), total capacity 31 MWt 26 MWe
• Polish part of Euroregion
• two large hard coal-fired CHP plants supplying
  industrial consumers and district heating
  networks Kamienna Gora and Jelenia Gora
• two new CHP installations chemical factory of
  Wizow (gas turbine- 4,1 MWe, 28 MWt) and Waste
  Water Treatment Plant in Jedrzychowice by
  Zgorzelec (2 gas engine units - 127 kWe, 207 kWt
  each)

48
Technical potential of CHP

• The potential in German part is considerably
  higher, however, this is given by the fact that
  decentralised CHP applications have been
  estimated in residential buildings, while in the
  Czech and Polish part, CHP units have been
  considered as additional sources to existing
  district heating sources.
