Abstract:
In 1997 the Dutch Central Planning Bureau (CPB) and ECN developed threeenergy scenarios for the Netherlands for the period 1995-2020. An economic
growth of 1.5%/y in scenario Divided Europe (DE), 2.7%/y in scenario European
Coordination (EC), and 3.3%/y in scenario Global Competition (GC) result in a
growth of the Dutch national energy consumption of 0.3, 1.0 and 1.4%/y,
respectively. The energy saving in the scenarios is based on existing
governmental policy. Although the governmental goal of 1.6%/y energy saving
is reached in GC, national energy consumption and CO2 emissions are still
growing in this scenario. This report contains a description of policy
measures to increase the energy saving in the GC scenario with 0.4%/y. Main
options are: more strict energy performance standards for new houses and
offices; an energy performance inspection of all existing houses and offices;
subsidy on cooling equipment with a low energy consumption; an increase of
the energy tax for small consumers; further agreements with the industry on
energy savings and material use; stimulation of new industrial processes and
the distribution of low temperature waste heat at industrial locations. The
results of this study are used for a governmental document of the Ministry of
Economic Affairs on options for further energy savings in the Netherlands. 35
