European ESCO Market Questionnaire

1. How many ESCOs110 _{are operating in your country?}

2. Are they offering energy performance contracts (EPC) or other type of performance based contracts?

3. Which is the most common type of contracts used by ESCOs in your country?

a) guaranteed savings (ESCOs guarantee the energy savings, clients take the financial risk),

b) shared savings (ESCO and client share the savings), c) build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT),

d) contract energy management (chauffage), e) other (please, specify)

4. What is the typical size of an ESCO111 _{in your country? Please, indicate the approximate}

market shares per category and the approximate number of ESCOs per category. a) small (up to 50 employees) - … % of energy service market, … ESCOs,

b) medium (up to 250 employees) … % of energy service market, …… ESCOs, c) large (above 250 employees) … % of energy service market, …… ESCOs, 5. Are ESCOs in your country local/national companies or part of large international

corporations? Is energy service provision predominantly their core business or supplementary to other business activities (e.g. equipment manufacturing, energy supply, etc.)?

6. What types of ESCO companies are present in your country (e.g. building and control manufacturers, facility management and operation companies, consulting/engineering firms, and energy service & supply companies)?

7. What is the size of the ESCO market (total value of ESCO energy saving projects)? 8. What is the potential size of the ESCO market (total value of possible energy efficiency

projects in the non-residential sector, with pay back time up to 10 years)? 9. In which sectors are the majority of ESCOs' projects:

a) Industry (process or horizontal technologies – motor systems)

110 _{For the definitions through the questionnaire please refer to} http://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/energyefficiency/ESCO/index.htm

111 _{In case of large companies active in other sector than ESCO, the size refers to the ESCO division. I} propose to delete 'parent company' because what if you know how big Siemens is in Germany – I guess the interest is only on the ESCO division, but disregard this if it is not the case.

b) District heating c) Co-generation d) Street lighting

e) Private non-residential buildings f) Public buildings

g) Renewables, h) Other….

10. What are the most common barriers to ESCO projects: a) Lack of appropriate forms of finance;

16. Of the ESCO projects in 2007-2008 (both new projects and those currently in progress), what percentage of projects was:

a) Street or Indoor Lighting Only

b) Complex building projects involving more energy services (e.g. lighting and HVAC), complex refurbishments. Please, indicate if these were predominantly commercial, public, industrial or residential buildings.

c) Industrial sector involving more energy services d) Co-generation or other supply-side projects.

17. Do you have any other observations or comments related to the current status and recent developments of the ESCO market in your country?
