1 The role of island local and regional authorities in the clean energy transition 09 July 2018 Naxos, Greece Kostas Komninos Director of DAFNI Network of Sustainable Greek Islands Head of Energy and Climate Change, Aegean Energy and Environment Agency

2 The DAFNI network DAFNI is a network of island local and regional authorities DAFNI is a non profit organisation DAFNI has 40 Municipal and 4 Regional members DAFNI promotes sustainable development in Greek islands through integrated actions DAFNI is founding member of the Pact of Islands initiative promoting sustainability in EU islands through local energy planning DAFNI is member of ISLENET; CPMR s informal network of island technical organisations DAFNI is the coordinator of the Smart Islands Initiative promoting islands as ideas areas for innovative projects

3 Scientific and Technical Consultant 2008: Establishment of the Ios Aegean Energy Agency (NPO) 2016: Change in name Aegean Energy and Environment Agency to underscore the need for an integrated approach to islands development Activities Cooperation: brings together interested parties, i.e. island authorities, private sector, financial institutions, civil society Project maturation: focus on delivering innovative projects that are of interest to local authorities Local energy planning: has delivered over 20 SEAPs for local island authorities (Covenant of Mayors, Pact of Islands) Advocacy: promotion of smart, integrated solutions on islands, small municipalities and remote communities in FEDARENE Vice-Presidency

4 Main fields of activity Desalination with RES Electric Mobility transport Electrical Ferries RES increase through energy storage water energy ICT Smart Water Management waste Smart street lighting Biogas production from waste Circular economy and resilience

5 What is special about energy in islands In relation to energy High reliance on hydrocarbons, high potential for emissions reduction Energy planning based on seasonality Obstacles to reduce emissions for interconnected islands due to low capacity cables that do not allow high RES penetration Obstacles to reduce emissions for non-interconnected (NI) islands due to technical restrictions in the grid that does not allow high RES penetration Difficulty to introduce natural gas in the islands energy market Cost of fuels is significantly higher due to transportation costs Often scarce water resources resulting to the operation of energy intensive desalination plants First line of defence and most severe impact from climate change compared to continental regions

6 In the meantime the opportunities for islands have been crystalized

7 Opportunities for Islands LOCAL CO2 EMMISSIONS PRODUCTION Many island regions, unlike mainland regions, are producing locally CO2 emissions for energy production in their territories and can commit to reduce them. LOCAL UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURES Islands host locally all the energy, transport, water, waste and waste water management utilities. The integrated management of these infrastructures can create valuable paradigms regarding sector coupling and integrated flexible infrastructure management. INNOVATION IN ISLANDS MATTERS Innovative investments such as smart grids, energy storage, sustainable mobility, circular water and waste management have a much higher impact on islands. ISLANDS AS TEST-BEDS Islands can function as test beds for different innovative technologies in the sustainability area which then can be scaled up to towns and cities of continental Europe REPLICABILITY POTENTIAL Insularity issues faced by islands are in many cases similar with the insularity issues faced by mountainous and geographically isolated areas of continental Europe. The experiences of islands can be easily replicated and transferred to these areas too.

8 The Electricity Market sees the Opportunities EURELECTRIC reports 1. June 2012 EU islands: Towards a sustainable energy future Use islands as a priority test-bed for innovative technologies such as storage, smart grids and RES. Foster RD&D on islands 2. February 2017 Towards the Energy Transition on Europe s Islands European energy and climate policy should cater for the specificities of islands. It should ensure that local energy communities are enabled to engage in the transition process, thus promoting local participation and stakeholder engagement. improve the bankability and economic viability of islands energy projects through an appropriate legal framework to ensure legal and regulatory stability for financial and technical cooperation. While the CEF or the PCI address connectivity issues in Europe s electricity network, similar funding facilities, potentially under the structure of the European Fund for Strategic Investments 2.0, would need to be designed for efficient isolated energy systems, micro-grids and smart-grids on islands

9 The Commission sees them too Winter Package Communication from the Commission Clean Energy For All Europeans ANNEX 2: Action to boost the clean energy transition Chapter 8. Governance and partnerships for effective delivery 30 November 2016 Islands and island regions provide platforms for pilot initiatives on clean energy transition and can serve as showcases at international level, as, for instance, in the EU's outermost regions with the case of El Hierro (Canary Islands), 100% renewable energy island. The Commission would like to help accelerate the development and adoption of best available technologies on islands and island regions, including exchange of best practice in financing and legal and regulatory regimes, and in energy for transport. The first step is to bring the islands themselves together, regardless of their size, geography or their location.

10 The EESC sees them too TEN Section Report on the Smart Islands Project March 2017 Despite their geographical diversity, EU islands face identical challenges such as territorial discontinuity, demographic desertification, strong seasonal fluctuation of tourists, energy dependency on fossil fuels (e.g. diesel), waste management, water supply and funding scarcity. Islands are answering these challenges by developing innovative projects which can be a model for other territories, particularly in the fields of ICT, the environment, energy, transport, tourism and commerce. Islands are living laboratories since they optimise the use and management of local resources and infrastructures.

11 Clean Energy for EU Islands Political Declaration on Clean Energy for EU Islands 18 May 2017 The European Commission, together with 14 EU countries (Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden) signed a political declaration to launch the new 'Clean Energy for EU Islands' initiative. Aimed at accelerating the clean energy transition on Europe's more than 2700 islands, this initiative will help islands reduce their dependency on energy imports by making better use of their own renewable energy sources and embracing more modern and innovative energy systems. The initiative will create a forum for all those with an interest in the clean energy transition on EU islands to share best practice and support the creation of a longterm framework to promote funding and technical assistance. 22 September 2017 Inaugural Forum in Crete

12 The timing is perfect for island local and regional authorities to play a key role in the transition to the smart era

13 Islands Clean Energy Transition The role of Greek island local authorities As an energy producer Participation in energy production from RES projects through their municipal companies or by joining an Energy Community Micro-production of energy from RES on municipal buildings and infrastructure to compensate municipal energy consumption (virtual netmetering) Biogas production through anaerobic digestion District heating networks exploiting available local RES (geothermal) As an energy consumer Energy savings project in street and public space lighting Energy efficient equipment for water resources management Energy retrofitting of municipal building

14 Islands Clean Energy Transition The role of Greek island local authorities As an infrastructure operator and manager To take advantage of the potential new margins for RES installations in order to participate in new investments To take advantage of the secure and stable network to invest on energy efficient equipment in water and waste water infrastructure To use the smart meters for a more efficient monitoring of municipal electricity consumption and secure energy savings in collaboration with ESCOs To install desalination units coupled with RES and potentially flexible load management To develop an electro-mobility with RES market as a pilot user and promoter To become an aggregator taking advantage of possible flexible municipal loads

15 Islands Clean Energy Transition The role of Greek island local authorities As a policy promoter and implementer To collaborate with the DSO to inform and educate the consumers regarding the use and benefits of smart meters To support the transition of the consumers into prosumers To communicate the benefits of the innovative and smart technologies inside and outside the island To promote the island becoming a test-bed for research and demo applications To promote an integrated management of island infrastructures based on the operation of a smart grid

16 Act locally Think globally Europe has been promoting the uptake of measures against climate change at local level Establishment of local and regional energy and environment agencies Launch and consistent support of Covenant of Mayors (CoM) Lately CoM became global in collaboration with Compact of Mayors and addresses beyond climate change mitigation adaptation measures too European island local and regional authorities have been in the frontline of EU initiatives against climate change Pact of Islands Smilegov Smart Islands Initiative

17 Smart Islands Initiative An initiative bringing EU islands together to turn their islands into examples of change, technological disruption towards clean energy transition

18 Smart Islands Initiative The dynamics The Smart Islands Initiative is a bottom-up effort of European island authorities and communities which seeks to communicate the significant potential of islands to function as laboratories for technological, social, environmental, economic and political innovation. Island Quadruple Helix Ecosystems A collaborative process of setting the Smart Islands Initiative into motion DECARBONISATION LOCAL ENERGY COMMUNITIES

19 Smart Islands Initiative Declaration signing ceremony In 28 March MEPs hosted in the European Parliament 33 Local and Regional island authorities from 15 Member States signing on behalf of more than 200 EU islands

20 Smart Islands Initiative The way forward The Smart Islands Initiative Pillars 1. The Smart Islands Forum An annual collaborative, networking and knowledge-sharing space for island public administration and community representatives 2. The Smart Islands Conference An annual gathering of stakeholders to exchange views and propose measures for putting the Smart Islands Declaration into effect, organized back-to-back with the Forum 3. The Smart Islands Platform A body catalysing collaboration between the public, private and academic sectors for the deployment of pilot innovative projects on islands

48 Kythnos Smart Island Master Plan The last years the tourism infrastructures of the island gradually increase attracting more and more visitors creating conditions for local economic growth. Of course this comes with a price which is, among others, the pressure on local environment and infrastructure For the Municipality and the citizens of Kythnos the vision is to move towards a smart and sustainable development of the island promoting the extension of the tourism period and minimising the impact of relevant activities. At the same time the integrated planning of the island s infrastructures will take stock of the past sustainable energy projects and incorporate smart and innovative technologies in the fields of energy, water, waste and mobility turning the island into a laboratory of innovative smart technologies. A major R&D project is expected to be shortly launched to support the realisation of the master plan

49 Kythnos Smart Island Master Plan Smart electrical system management Smart microgrids Smart demand response Smart water management Smart waste management Smart transportation and mobility Smart street lighting Smart Kythnos Centre

50 Kythnos Smart Island Master Plan However technological innovation is not enough! What about innovative business models? What about local ownership What about local benefits What about local development The Energy Community of Kythnos under discussion to be established based on the new legislative framework
