Response to Delegated act on primarily used components under the Net-Zero Industry Act

5 Feb 2025

Current list of relevant technologies and components focusses solely on production and management, missing elements responsible for reducing energy losses. Teh BMS might help in energy use optimisation with respect to needs, but has limited application when it comes to reducing energy losses, especially when heating and cooling is concerned, indirectly impacting the management of energy used for generating those. Therefore, either the list should include or a separate one be created for solutions aimed at recucing losses, e.g. insulation techniques, insulation materials, detection of losses of energy/heat (could be combined with BMS), strcutural designs reducing need for heating/cooling, convection mechanisms etc.

Response to Implementing Act on non-price criteria in renewable energy auctions

5 Feb 2025

Currently the global policies for achieving net-zero targets , while objectives are essential for mitigating risks from increasing risks of negative impacts on climate change, tend to underestimate inherent risks from current and emerging ambinet energy harvesting technologies. Systems like wind generators are commonly associated with negative imapcts on micro-environment and its habitats, while PV systems still have not established environmentally-neutral ways of recycling older PV units, increasing risks of secondary environmental pollution, thus reducing positive effects. Actions are therefore needed to (1) assessing and reducing negative impacts from deploying ambient energy harvesting generators, and (2) developing processes for reducing negative environmental impacts from the production of wind/PV systems and for their environmentally-neutral recycling once they reach the end of life - we currently face the unresolved EOL problem with such systems deployed over the past two decades.
