implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for space heaters and combination heaters

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related products (1) and in particular Article 15(1) thereof,

After consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum,

Whereas:

| (1) | Under Directive 2009/125/EC ecodesign requirements should be set by the Commission for energy-related products representing significant volumes of sales and trade, having a significant environmental impact and presenting significant potential for improvement through design in terms of their environmental impact without entailing excessive costs. |

(1)

Under Directive 2009/125/EC ecodesign requirements should be set by the Commission for energy-related products representing significant volumes of sales and trade, having a significant environmental impact and presenting significant potential for improvement through design in terms of their environmental impact without entailing excessive costs.

| (2) | Provisions on the efficiency of boilers were established by Council Directive 92/42/EEC of 21 May 1992 on efficiency requirements for new hot-water boilers fired with liquid or gaseous fuels (2). |

(2)

Provisions on the efficiency of boilers were established by Council Directive 92/42/EEC of 21 May 1992 on efficiency requirements for new hot-water boilers fired with liquid or gaseous fuels (2).

| (3) | Article 16(2)(a) of Directive 2009/125/EC provides, that in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 19(3) and the criteria set out in Article 15(2), and after consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum, the Commission should, as appropriate, introduce implementing measures for products offering a high potential for cost-effective reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, such as for heating and water heating equipment. |

(3)

Article 16(2)(a) of Directive 2009/125/EC provides, that in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 19(3) and the criteria set out in Article 15(2), and after consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum, the Commission should, as appropriate, introduce implementing measures for products offering a high potential for cost-effective reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, such as for heating and water heating equipment.

| (4) | The Commission has carried out a preparatory study on the technical, environmental and economic aspects of space heaters and combination (space and water) heaters typically used in the Union. The study was devised together with stakeholders and interested parties from the Union and third countries, and the results have been made publicly available. |

(4)

The Commission has carried out a preparatory study on the technical, environmental and economic aspects of space heaters and combination (space and water) heaters typically used in the Union. The study was devised together with stakeholders and interested parties from the Union and third countries, and the results have been made publicly available.

| (5) | The environmental aspects of space heaters and combination heaters that have been identified as significant for the purposes of this Regulation are energy consumption in the use phase and (for heat pump heaters) sound power levels. In addition, for heaters using fossil fuels, emissions of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter and hydrocarbons are identified as significant environmental aspects. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

The environmental aspects of space heaters and combination heaters that have been identified as significant for the purposes of this Regulation are energy consumption in the use phase and (for heat pump heaters) sound power levels. In addition, for heaters using fossil fuels, emissions of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter and hydrocarbons are identified as significant environmental aspects.

| (6) | It is not appropriate to set ecodesign requirements for emissions of carbon monoxide, particulate matter and hydrocarbons as no suitable European measurement methods are as yet available. With a view to developing such measurement methods, the Commission mandated the European standardisation organisations to consider ecodesign requirements for those emissions during the review of this Regulation. National provisions for ecodesign requirements on emissions of carbon monoxides, particulate matter and hydrocarbons of space heaters and combination heaters may be maintained or introduced until the corresponding Union ecodesign requirements enter into force. The provisions of Directive 2009/142/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 relating to appliances burning gaseous fuels (3), which limit the combustion products of appliances burning gaseous fuels in relation to health and safety, are not affected. |

| (7) | The preparatory study shows that requirements regarding the other ecodesign parameters referred to in Annex I, Part 1 to Directive 2009/125/EC are not necessary in the case of space heaters and combination heaters. In particular, greenhouse gas emissions related to refrigerants used in heat pump heaters for heating today’s European building stock are not identified as significant. The appropriateness of setting ecodesign requirements for these greenhouse gas emissions will be reassessed when reviewing this Regulation. |

| (8) | The scope of this Regulation should include boiler space heaters, cogeneration space heaters and heat pump space heaters providing heat to water-based central heating systems for space heating purposes, and boiler combination heaters and heat pump combination heaters providing heat to water-based central heating systems for space heating purposes and heat to deliver hot drinking and sanitary water.

These heaters are designed to use gaseous or liquid fuels, including from biomass (unless predominantly), electricity and ambient or waste heat.

| (9) | Heaters that are designed for using gaseous or liquid fuels predominantly (more than 50 %) produced from biomass have specific technical characteristics which require further technical, economic and environmental analyses. Depending on the outcome of the analyses, ecodesign requirements for those heaters should be set at a later stage, if appropriate. |

| (10) | Annual energy consumption related to space heaters and combination heaters was estimated to have been 12 089 PJ (about 289 Mtoe) in the Union in 2005, corresponding to 698 Mt CO2 emissions. Unless specific measures are taken, annual energy consumption is expected to be 10 688 PJ in 2020. Annual emissions of nitrogen oxides related to space heaters and combination heaters were estimated to have been 821 kt SOx equivalent in the Union in 2005. Unless specific measures are taken, annual emissions are expected to be 783 kt SOx equivalent in 2020. The preparatory study shows that the use-phase energy consumption and emissions of nitrogen oxides of space heaters and combination heaters can be significantly reduced. |

The energy consumption of space heaters and combination heaters can be reduced by applying existing cost-effective non-proprietary technologies which lead to a reduction in the combined costs of purchasing and operating these products.

| (12) | In the Union there are almost five million dwellings with shared open-flue systems. For technical reasons it is not possible to replace existing boiler space heaters and boiler combination heaters by efficient condensing boilers in dwellings with a shared open-flue system. The requirements contained in this Regulation allow non-condensing boilers specifically designed for such a configuration to remain on the market; this is to prevent undue costs for consumers, to give manufacturers time to develop boilers dedicated to more efficient heating technologies, and to give Member States time to reflect on national building codes. |
