S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Thank you

0:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Melissa for the introduction,

0:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for opening the official day of the 26th

0:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

conference here in Berlin.

0:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I would like to thank first

0:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

of all Weime and the Heide group for

0:23

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

hosting us here during the Weime show in

0:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Berlin.

0:29

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I would also thank the two sponsors that we have.

0:32

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It is WEG and

0:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Inomotix,

0:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

two of the major motor manufacturers.

0:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are very pleased they contributed with their sponsorship to make

0:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

possible to have this conference today.

0:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

As you know,

0:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the first bit I was saying,

0:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Enlots stand for energy efficiency,

0:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

motor driven systems.

0:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So we are talking about energy efficiency.

1:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And it's 30 years that we organize

1:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

EMOTs and still we see that efficiency is

1:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

improving, but still large efficiency gains

1:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

potential exist in our industrial system,

1:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the operation of energy,

1:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

but also in buildings,

1:22

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in pumps,

1:22

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

ventilation, compressors.

1:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

However,

1:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have to recognize that through

1:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

a lot of efficiency policies globally

1:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and in particular here in Europe and as well as

1:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

tremendous innovation by the industry in the motor design,

1:42

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the variable speed

1:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

drives and also in pumps and compressor ventilations.

1:51

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are still talking about energy efficiency

1:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

today.

1:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I think we are all aware of the

2:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

constraints.

2:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

on our environment caused by climate change

2:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

is no doubt that greenhouse gas

2:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

emissions are impacting our climate,

2:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

creating a lot of damages everywhere in the world,

2:17

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

flooding,

2:17

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

forest fire,

2:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

drought, everywhere.

2:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Even in Europe we've got more flooding,

2:23

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

more forest fire than in the past.

2:27

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And the only way is to reduce globally our greenhouse gas

2:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

emissions, in particular CO2 produced by combustion

2:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

of fossil fuels.

2:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And one of the strategies along with the carbonization

2:41

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

of the supply to many solar renewables and

2:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

other technologies by nuclear is to reduce our consumption as possible

2:49

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

to energy efficiency.

2:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

But it is not nowadays only climate change

2:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that calls for more efficiency in our world.

2:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

There is also an energy crisis that's

3:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

happened very often now,

3:03

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and it's recently caused by probably the Middle

3:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

East.

3:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So the oil prices spiked,

3:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the gas prices spiked,

3:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and at least in Europe,

3:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have an electricity price which is very much linked to the gas price,

3:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

because gas and electricity production is predominant.

3:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So our electricity prices are very high.

3:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And what can do companies to reduce this high cost with impact on

3:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

their competitiveness?

3:29

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Be more efficient,

3:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

use less energy for the same output.

3:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And it's not only,

3:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and as you see,

3:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

these problems happen regularly.

3:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Four years ago,

3:41

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

when Russia went to Ukraine,

3:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

now again.

3:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So we live in a world where to be efficient is

3:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

an insurance against the risk of high energy prices.

3:51

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So it's very advantageous to keep a company very

3:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

competitive.

3:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And finally,

3:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

here in Europe in particular,

3:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

there is also an issue of security supply.

4:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are importing most of our fuels,

4:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

being coal,

4:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

gas,

4:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

oil.

4:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And again,

4:08

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

efficiency is a key strategy to reduce our energy dependence.

4:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We become more secure,

4:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

more aligned in our energy system if we are more efficient.

4:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And finally,

4:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

let's say,

4:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

when we talk about efficiency,

4:23

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I must say that still after 30 years,

4:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

our key policy leader,

4:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

are very often more interested in the building sector,

4:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which is very important in appliances,

4:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and they forget the motor systems,

4:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

they forget the industrial sectors.

4:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So it's important that through this conference we

4:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

restate the importance of energy efficiency

4:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the motor system because the number is still there,

4:51

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

more or less around 60 to 70 percent of industrial energy consumption,

4:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

big numbers.

4:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And we know that most of these

5:00

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and the motor don't consume energy,

5:02

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

but this energy goes through the motors and even 2 -3 points

5:06

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

of efficiency gain made a lot of energy savings.

5:10

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

And then when the mechanical power at

5:14

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

the end of the motors goes to the pump,

5:16

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

to the compressor,

5:17

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

again the efficiency gains there.

5:20

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

And finally we should not forget to the systems.

5:22

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

We are still having a lot of industrial sites leaking

5:26

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

compressed air systems.

5:28

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

And fixing the leak was one of the topics of EMOS 99.

5:32

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

But still a lot of SMEs are unaware of the

5:36

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

benefit that they get.

5:38

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

So I'm pleased that in these conferences we have key

5:43

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

experts from all around the world,

5:46

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

from Australia to Asia,

5:48

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

South and North America,

5:50

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and a lot of European experts as well,

5:54

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

presenting the latest research on how to

5:58

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

make motor drives,

6:00

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

pumps,

6:01

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

compressor fans and systems more efficient.

6:04

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

And I can only wish you...

6:07

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

to enjoy the conference,

6:10

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

network as much as possible with your colleagues,

6:13

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

with your peers,

6:14

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

learn from each other,

6:16

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and when you back your company at your university or

6:20

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

your organization,

6:21

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

keep promoting energy efficiency in the modern system.

6:24

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

It's very much needed.

6:25

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

We need the alliance of everybody,

6:28

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

from the manufacturers,

6:29

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

from the academics,

6:30

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

from the policy makers,

6:31

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

from the...

6:32

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

the company who repairs Auto -Provice Arts 23 to advance

6:37

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and make our European and global industry more efficient

6:42

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and continue to reduce the impact of climate change.

6:45

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

So thank you again,

6:46

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

and without further ado,

6:48

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

I would like to invite Ronald Pierce -Diravisholt,

6:51

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

representing the European Commission,

6:53

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

DGNR,

6:55

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

to give the overview of the progress in the policy

6:59

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

for motor systems components.

7:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This is my slide.

7:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Perfect.

7:19

S… Speaker 2 (Eemods1)

Good morning,

7:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

everybody.

7:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It's my pleasure to provide you an

7:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

update where we stand in the

7:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

EU with our different regulation on energy

7:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

-related products and,

7:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in particular,

7:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

motors,

7:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

drives, and motor -driven products like motor

7:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

pumps and fans.

7:47

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

For the time being,

7:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

if we don't regulate and if we don't plan to regulate compressors,

7:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we will not speak of compressors,

7:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

then we present an outline of where we stand,

7:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

what is the progress,

7:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

where are we going to.

8:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So I will start with an

8:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

overview of the political context,

8:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

then I will go through fans,

8:11

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

electric motors and drives,

8:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and then one of us.

8:17

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So the political context,

8:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I think Paolo just explained very well why we are

8:22

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

doing this, and I think it's important to remind ourselves why

8:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we are doing this,

8:27

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

what is at stake.

8:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And in terms of policy

8:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the EU to address the climate change,

8:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have been redeemed with our mission

8:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for the EU to be climate neutral by 2050.

8:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And this entails,

8:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for example,

8:47

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the decarbonisation of the energy system,

8:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

moving towards a circular economy,

8:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and of course improving product efficiency

8:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and sustainability.

8:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And then there is also the geopolitical situation,

9:03

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which makes all this even more urgent,

9:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

as Paolo explained.

9:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We have disruption of energy

9:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

supplies, some shortage of energy commodities,

9:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

pressure on prices and an impact on citizens and businesses and

9:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the whole economy is at stake.

9:22

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So enhancing,

9:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

improving the EU energy dependency is really

9:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

essential and for all these reasons energy

9:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

savings and energy efficiency remain and are key policy

9:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

objectives in the EU and I think elsewhere also in the world I think is very

9:42

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

important.

9:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I like to say that each kilowatt hour saved is a step in the right direction.

9:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I think the kilowatt hour that we don't use is the

9:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

greenest kilowatt hour that you can imagine.

10:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

When we speak about products' energy efficiency,

10:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the EU we have two policy instruments,

10:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which are eco -design and energy labeling.

10:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Eco -design sets minimum energy efficiency requirements for

10:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

energy -related products,

10:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which is any good that has an impact on energy consumption during

10:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

use.

10:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And the first one they backed already from 1992.

10:23

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And so far,

10:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

overall gas basis has been the 2009 directive.

10:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And recently,

10:32

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

since 2014,

10:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

there is a new legal framework.

10:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This is a broader framework

10:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that covers almost all categories of physical goods

10:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that are placed on the EU market.

10:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It is called the Eco -Design for Sustainable Products Regulation,

10:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

so it's really about sustainability products.

10:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It offers a wide range of requirements,

10:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

including resource efficiency,

10:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

product durability,

10:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

information requirements,

10:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

including through a digital product.

11:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

There is a reliance also on digital...

11:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

information.

11:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This framework

11:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

provides a transitional regime,

11:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which means that there is some ongoing work

11:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that has been started before this framework has been in place

11:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that we are allowed to continue in the early GATT framework to

11:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

avoid to start again and to take additional

11:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

delays.

11:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Non -legal basis also improved the framework on various aspects,

11:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for example,

11:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

market storage,

11:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which is a key aspect.

11:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And a working plan for up

11:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

to 2030 has been adopted last year.

11:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Energy Leveling is a law policy instrument that provides information

11:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

on efficiency,

11:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

energy efficiency and other performance parameters,

11:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

enabling buyers to make an informed choice.

12:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And these rules exist since 1979.

12:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and the products we are talking today are not subject to energy

12:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

labelling because this is really for end consumers,

12:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

customers and it's not super labelling in context

12:17

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

so I will not speak of energy labelling and we will focus on it.

12:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

For those two policy instruments we

12:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

have about 50 measures in place.

12:27

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

including other eco -design circulators,

12:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

industrial fans,

12:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

water pumps, electric motors and bio -speed drives,

12:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and industrial fans,

12:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which are all products that are conserved today.

12:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So,

12:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

more specifically,

12:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have electric motorway drives,

12:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have regulations from 2019.

12:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

From fans,

12:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have a mode regulation from 2011 and 2012,

13:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and I will explain each of these in more details.

13:08

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

But before that,

13:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I want to understand what are the benefits.

13:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

The whole framework delivers nearly 1 ,200 TWh

13:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

of primary energy savings per year.

13:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I calculated that I think this is nuclear

13:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

power plants of 1 GW that have not been built thanks to this

13:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

policy.

13:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And what we call the industrial

13:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

products, the motors and motor driven products,

13:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

a scale

13:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which covers many.

13:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

also on appliances,

13:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

heating and cooling appliances,

13:47

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

etc. Now moving more into concrete

13:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

things, for industrial fans,

13:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have this 2024 regulation that replaces

13:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the one from 2011,

14:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and it will apply very soon,

14:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in July of this year,

14:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and there is one year transition beyond for fans that are driven

14:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

by electrical motor,

14:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

with an electric in between 125 watts until 500

14:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

kilowatts.

14:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It's important to mention that it has been amended by a commission repubulation

14:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that has been published in December,

14:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and I will explain what this is.

14:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

The main features

14:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

are there.

14:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I've presented them already.

14:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I will not go through them in detail,

14:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

but I still want to mention the information required

14:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

you at least shallow and speed.

14:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Trick.

14:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

performance curves have to be provided,

14:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

one at full speed,

14:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

one at low speed,

14:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and one at intermediate speed.

14:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And why do we do that?

14:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We do it to enable systems.

15:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

designers and also system users to optimize their

15:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

system performance according to actual demand by

15:08

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

regulating the speed of the fan through viable speed drives.

15:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And why I mention this?

15:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Because there lies a very significant energy

15:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

savings potential.

15:19

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We cannot address it directly with these police

15:23

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

instruments, but we can enable this by requiring

15:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

manufacturing.

15:29

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

to provide the information that is needed for the system designers,

15:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for the system users,

15:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

to make this optimization.

15:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And you will see it repeated in the other regulations that I will present.

15:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We try to achieve this in every regulations to enable these systems

15:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and efficiencies.

15:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And then the amendment that was

15:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

adopted in December,

15:51

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

it does a few things.

15:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It makes a few clarifications,

15:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

it fixes a few issues that we found after publication.

15:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Importantly,

16:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

it improved the wording of some legal aspects regarding

16:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the transition of payouts for funds integrated into products and

16:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the exception for spare parts.

16:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So there were some possible confusion with the text and we wanted to make sure

16:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that the text is fully clear.

16:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are also increasing the tolerances for

16:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

verification of compliance by markets with securities.

16:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

There were a few missing definitions that we have added.

16:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

some clarification around the concept of fan speed

16:32

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and best efficiency points,

16:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

offering the possibility to correct test results to the standard audition

16:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and to cover fan speed.

16:42

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We delete article 6 on circumvention because this

16:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

is now redundant to item article 6 of the ESPR,

16:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the Eco Design for Sustainable Products Regulation that I just mentioned.

16:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and other few minor corrections like termification.

16:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And for those who are interested,

17:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

there is a link there.

17:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

I think the publications,

17:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the presentations will be made available.

17:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So if you want to see this,

17:06

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

or just type 2025 slash 2041 on

17:11

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Google and you will find it.

17:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Anyway,

17:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

moving to water pumps.

17:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We have currently one regulation

17:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

from 2012 that is under review.

17:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

The review is well advanced to explain what is at stake

17:29

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in this review.

17:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

In the current situation,

17:33

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we regulate only the performance of the hydraulic part,

17:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

whereas in the review,

17:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we regulate an extended product that we

17:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

also put rather than unit,

17:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

which is the hydraulic part,

17:47

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the motor and the drive.

17:49

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And why do we do this?

17:51

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Why do we adopt this so -called extended product approach?

17:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It's precisely to enable savings

18:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

at system level.

18:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So we move from an index that is just based on

18:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the hydraulic efficiency to an energy efficiency index that is considering

18:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the whole water pump unit,

18:11

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

pump,

18:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

motor, and drive,

18:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

if any.

18:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And this matrix is established so that a solution with a variable drive is

18:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

highly favored.

18:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And this would enable a lot of energy

18:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

saving in the systems.

18:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Because even in constant flow

18:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

applications,

18:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we know that there are gains to be made through regulating

18:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the speed of the time.

18:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So that's the main thing that we want to achieve

18:41

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

through this review.

18:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are also increasing the score.

18:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We are adding resource efficiency requirement.

18:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It should be across there.

18:49

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It should be a little green V.

18:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And of course,

18:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

this is still not yet adopted.

18:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So these are plans.

19:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

There is no final political validation.

19:02

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This is a work in progress.

19:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And what are the next steps?

19:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So this revision is taking place

19:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

under the 2009 framework,

19:11

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

under the transitional regime that is ending

19:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in E726.

19:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So we don't have so much time.

19:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

crossing our fingers that there will be an extension.

19:22

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It is not 100 % certain yet,

19:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

but we are really hoping that this will happen.

19:27

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We recently held a consultation forum and we are analysing

19:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the feedback that we have in

19:42

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the internal process of approval within the Commission.

19:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

After that,

19:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we will make the legal act of public

19:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

feedback from the FUSA portal of everybody.

20:01

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and also consultation of the World Trade Organization.

20:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And when we have considered ODAS,

20:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we will look for adoption and duplication that we expect sometime

20:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in third trimester or next year.

20:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So there have been delays compared to the previous iteration,

20:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

but this is,

20:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

let's say,

20:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we are really well on the way to these goals.

20:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Now, to motors and drives,

20:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we have this current regulation from 2019 that

20:34

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

regulates induction motors from 12kW

20:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

to 1000kW,

20:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

2kW,

20:42

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

3 -phase,

20:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

50Hz and 60Hz,

20:45

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and it also coerces via speed drives,

20:49

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

3 -phase in the same voltage.

20:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And you can see here the efficiency

20:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

requirements,

21:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the levels from 0

21:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

.12 to 0 .5,

21:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

it's the IE3 level,

21:08

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

from 0 .75 to 1 ,000 kilowatts

21:12

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

is IE3,

21:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

but between 75 and 200 kilowatts,

21:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

it's the IE4 level,

21:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and I think the new is done.

21:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

world premiere of having these high efficiency requirements

21:25

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for new models.

21:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And also,

21:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

information requirements at part of the speed for enabling system

21:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

designers to optimize the system.

21:38

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This is very important.

21:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

This is already there in the current regulation and of course we will have it still

21:43

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in the new regulation and if possible we will enhance it.

21:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

These are large energy savings which are not accounted

21:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

for the potential.

21:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

expected energy savings that I mentioned earlier,

21:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

this will come on top.

21:56

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So the review,

22:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the legal basis is in the Article 9 of the regulation and it requires

22:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

us to assess a certain number of things which we are in the process of doing.

22:09

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We need to look at resource efficiency requirements,

22:14

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

including official identification of where working by our waters,

22:18

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

a level of verification tolerances,

22:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

setting stricter requirements for waters and drives,

22:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

considering medium voltage motor and high voltage motors above the

22:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

box,

22:32

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

setting requirements for combinations of motors and

22:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

drives together,

22:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

revising the exemptions,

22:40

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

and possibly extending the scope of motor types.

22:44

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

The study Kika started N24

22:48

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

with consultants,

22:49

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

some of them are in the room and I thank them to be here with us.

22:55

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

It takes place in the new legal framework,

22:57

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the ESPR.

22:58

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And for this,

23:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we need to consider additional aspects than just the

23:04

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

traditional aspects that we used to do in the design.

23:07

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

The

23:13

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

study started in 24.

23:15

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Last year,

23:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

we were engaged in the process of evaluation under current

23:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

regulation,

23:21

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

meaning how did it work,

23:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

what were the good points,

23:26

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

what could be improved.

23:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

What are the problems that remain?

23:30

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

And this drives us into the impact assessment.

23:32

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

What can we do to resolve these problems?

23:36

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

How can we do better?

23:37

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

What are the policy options?

23:39

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

What are the services where we stand?

23:41

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

So the findings from the evaluation

23:46

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

that was carried out last year,

23:47

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in which we collect feedback.

23:50

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

There are five criteria.

23:52

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

First,

23:53

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

effectiveness.

23:54

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We think the regulation was successful in driving

23:59

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the market transition.

24:00

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

towards higher efficiency motors and drives and promoting the competitiveness

24:05

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

of industry without negatively affecting the free circulation of

24:10

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

products on the EU market.

24:11

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

Our estimate is that we are generating 14

24:16

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

TWh of additional savings and reducing the corresponding

24:20

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

amount of CO2 emissions.

24:24

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

We think we are plausibly closing some meatballs that were under

24:28

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the premium implementation.

24:29

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

But overall,

24:31

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

the big point is that technological progress as advances

24:35

S… Speaker 1 (Eemods1)

in standardization are necessarily not adequately eroded in the current implementation.
