Constraints to Energy Efficiency in ResidentialBuildings
Sectoral aspects
- no or unsufficient minimum standards available- no or unsufficent knowledge of and trust in saving potential
(technology) by home owners and architects/developers- robust energy performance assessment tool not available
Organisational aspects
- multiple ministries and public agencies dealing with the residentialbuilding sector- single owners of condominiums have to be convinced to act together- complicated decision making processes in large condominium units- complex organisation of building processes in large scale units

Constraints to Energy Efficiency in ResidentialBuildings
Financial aspects
- limited or no incentives for client to promote EE residential buildings
- banking sector has interest, but limited market/product knowledge- high efforts and transaction cost during market introduction
Personal aspects
- a multitude of single individuals have to align their living behaviour- concerning heating habits (temperature, comfort factor)- no chance to force them, no guarantee that they will contribute the
way expected

Joint Assessment Tool developed byFraunhofer Institute and TERI, India
- Based on the whole-building-approach(Flexibility)
- Robust energy performance assessment(Comparability)
- Easy to use by architects and auditors(Scalability)
- Easy to compare different EE design,material and technology combinations(Optimization)
- Basis for Energy Efficiency Label(Communication)

Loan (Eur 50 million) and Technical Assistance(EUR 1.5 million)to the National Housing Bank (NHB) as apex bank torefinance sub-loans for buyers of energy efficient new urban apartments
Highest energy savings potential in new apartment blocks for middleincome residents: 46-51% depending on climate zone - out of which
20-36% Building Envelope 16-22% Appliances
Investments to achieve up to 40% savings financially attractive at 5 yr.payback (Average FIRR 25%)
Preconditions for feasibility:
- optimization of whole building design at planning stage
- early contact to advise architects/developers
- robust energy performance assessment tool
- training of auditors and energy advisors
Promoting EE Buildings in IndiaEnergy Efficient New Housing Programme

9/129
Early stage of implementation: Agreements signed 12/2010, firstdisbursement 07/2011, TA tender ongoing
Five residential housing developments located in the composite
climate zone being evaluated: 23 individual buildings assessed and optimized with the
Fraunhofer/TERI assessment tool
Energy efficiency certificates under preparation by TERI:
Covering 17,000 apartment units to be built in the next 5 yrs with
Savings of up to 2000 kwh p.a. per apartment; and
Expected total savings of 22,000 tCO2 p.a.
Fraunhofer/TERI tool is being amended for the hot-dry and warm-humidclimate zones (by November 2011)

Next steps under the Programme TA:
Establish the Energy Efficient Housing brand and label in the Indian
market
Train energy auditors and architects in the energy assessment of new
residential buildings with the Fraunhofer/TERI tool Achieve EE assessment and certification endorsement by public and
private institutions
Continuous Challenges to the Promotional Programme:
No mandatory minimum EE standard for residential buildings
Multiple ministries and public agencies dealing with the residentialbuilding sector
Lack of sustainable financial incentives to promote EE residentialbuildings
