Energy efficiency
- an important issue for the cooperation
in the Baltic Sea region

Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
Fundamentals
The effects of climate change are an important challenge also for transport, building and urban development policy.
Human activities are the main cause for climate change.
Aim: Strategy of sustainable development.
Core element are: – the increase of renewable energies and – the improvement of energy efficiency.

Energy efficiency –Issue for cooperation in the Baltic Sea region
Energy efficiency – an importnat issuefor the cooperation in the Baltic Sea region
The seas in the EU should not act as barriers, but develop into centres of cooperation.
France advocates a Mediterranean Union. Germany supports this initiative.
At the same time Germany is lobbying for greater cooperation in the Baltic Sea region

Energy efficiency –Issue for cooperation in the Baltic Sea region
The Baltic Sea is a region where transnational cooperation is making good progresse
The enlargement of the EU to the East opens up new opportunities
At the Baltic Sea a close partnership between old and new EU Members is developing
The Baltic Sea can almost be regarded as an „Inland Sea of the EU“
But the Baltic Sea partnership should also include non-EU countries

Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
- Initiative of the EU heads of state and government- Germany is committed to this initiative- Action plan will be presented in June 2009 - Main point of interest of the Swedish EU Council Presidency
EU Baltic Sea StrategyEU Baltic Sea Strategy

Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
Aim: Sustainable development of the entire Baltic Sea region on four main levels:
- Promotion of an ecologically sustainable development
- Promotion of growth and wealth
- Unimpeded access to the regions for transport and energy supply - Protection against accidents, natural disasters and external dangers

•Network of cities and communities which carry out sustainable measures
* Ensuring energy efficient supply
* Promotion of energy efficient buildings
* Promotion of small and medium-sized enterprises also for research and development of energy efficient products

European spatial and urban development policy
Energy efficiency is an important element of European spatial and urban development policy
Political framework:
• Territoriale Agenda of the EU (TAEU)
• Leipzig Charter on Sustainable European Cities
TAEU und Leipzig Charter emphasize the integrated approach.This includes especially environmental protection and this also means energy efficiency

Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
European spatial and urban development policy
Recommendations of the ministers responsible for spatial development in the Territorial Agenda:
Inclusion of all policy areas
Dialogue of all stakeholders of territorial development
Comprehensive territorial approach across state borders
But at the same time: Better use of the territorial diversity in Europe
Better European networking of urban regions and cities
Int. Arbeitsgruppe „Energie und Klimawandel“ der Ostseeparlamentarierkonferenz 18.05.09 in Berlin
Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
Cooperation in urban and spatial development policy
Inclusion of energy efficiency into the cooperation in the Baltic Sea region also
corresponds to TAEU
This applies in particular to the transnational cooperation (Interreg III/IV B) in the Baltic Sea region
Interreg projects can develop model solutions
EU Baltic Sea Strategy can build on former cooperation initiatives in spatial and urban development policy.

Current Interreg projects for energy efficiency
LonglifeTiem frame: 2009 – 201212 project partners from 4 countries (D, PL, LT, DK)Lead Partner: Technische Universität Berlin (Technical University Berlin)
Aims, subjects, results
– Increasing energy efficiency in housing development – Improving quality of building materials and technologies– Technological optimisation of resource utilisation – inclusion of long-term lifecycle aspects– Comparative analyses – Development of standards and criteria – Implementation through the example of a prototype in new housing development – Recommendations for EU Directives

Political objectives for energy efficiency
The most important decisions:
– 2007: „Integrated Energy and Climate Programme“ of the Federal Government
– 2008: „Energy-Climate Package“ of the EU
The aim at EU level: Energy efficiency (across all sectors) is to increase by 20 % between 1990 and 2020. This aim is unique in the world up to now.

Policy for the improvement of energy efficiency
CO2 Strategie for passenger cars
CO2 reduction through a determination of the maximum fuel consumption or the relevant CO2 emissions of newly registered passenger cars
Reduction of CO2 emissions from 160 g/km today to 120 g/km in 2015. Long-term goal: 95 g/km in 2020
Reduction to 130 g/km has to be achieved through improved engine technology, another 10 g/km can be achieved through additional measures(tyres, Use of bio fuels). Incentive for the manufacturers to develop more energy-efficient engines.
Fines in case of non-compliance

German „Sustainable Building“ Quality Label
Since 2001 in Germany efforts to introduce a new concept for planning, construction and use of buildings. Aim: Holistic observation of costs during the entire useful economic life of the building
This objective is served by the introduction of a German „Sustainable Building“ Quality Label
A „building mark“ and a „site mark“ will be awarded.
Int. Arbeitsgruppe „Energie und Klimawandel“ der Ostseeparlamentarierkonferenz 18.05.09 in Berlin
Staatssekretär Dr. Engelbert Lütke Daldrup
German „Sustainable Building“ Quality Label
The building mark is composed of five partial marks:• ecological quality• economic quality• socio-cultural and functional qualtity• technical quality• process quality
The certification system is curently only oriented towards office and administrative buildings
It is meant to act as a voluntary market system.
