Traduction de «Division Énergie - Alimentation et Conversion » (Français → Anglais) :

‘seasonal coefficient of performance’ (SCOP) or ‘seasonal primary energy ratio’ (SPER) is the overall coefficient of performance of a heat pump space heater or heat pump combination heater using electricity or the overall primary energy ratio of a heat pump space heater or heat pump combination heater using fuels, representative of the designated heating season, calculated as the reference annual heating demand divided by the annual energ ...[+++]y consumption;

The seasonal space heating energy efficiency ηs shall be calculated as the seasonal coefficient of performance SCOP divided by the conversion coefficient CC or the seasonal primary energy ratio SPER, corrected by contributions accounting for temperature controls and, for water-/brine-to-water heat pump space heaters and heat pump combination heaters, the electricity consumption of one or more ground water pumps.

4. Notes that emission mitigation efforts are expected to increase the demand for bioenergy; stresses the potential of the agricultural sector to contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy by increasing the production of sustainable energy, through sources such as biogas, and thereby creating new jobs in rural areas; calls, therefore, for greater recognition of the contribution made by agriculture and forestry through the sustainable production of renewable energy, which is currently credited to the energy, transport and heating sectors when taking stock; stresses that biomass and biofuels must be produced sustainably, using robust sustai ...[+++]nability criteria, efficiently, and without affecting negatively agrifood markets, land used for production, and food and land prices, avoiding the clearance and conversion of valuable natural ecosystems;

For the purpose of adapting the comparative methodology framework to national circumstances, Member States should determine the estimated economic lifecycle of a building and/or building element, the appropriate cost for energy carriers, products, systems, maintenance, operational and labour costs, primary energy conversion factors, and the energy price developments on this point to be assumed for fuels used in their national context for energy used in buildings, taking into account the information provided by the Commission.

The traction energy supply system in tunnels shall be divided up into sections, each not exceeding 5 km. This specification applies only if the signalling system permits the presence of more than one train in the tunnel on each track simultaneously.
