Snapshot of CNIS

China National Institute of Standardization dates back to 1963. As a national non-profit institute affiliated
to AQSIQ, CNIS is dedicated to standardization research, especially for the all-round, strategic and

comprehensive issues of standardization regarding national economic and social development.

Roles of energy savings in energy

efficiency financing

Valuation of energy efficiency by energy savings

What is the value of improvement of energy efficiency by 1%? What is the value of emission
reduction of 1t CO2? What is the value of energy savings of 1000 kWh?

1%1tCO21000kWh

Energy savings is the key outputs in energy efficiency services

It is common to share the energy savings in Energy Performance Contracting

Energy savings is the key subject matter of energy trading mechanism

Only standardized goods could be traded massively

Can energy savings be measured?

Energy savings is the value not occurred

Not occurred values could not be measured directly

Energy savings could be determined based on standardized
evaluation methods through calculating and analyzing the
measured consumption and relevant factors

Basic concept of energy savings

Energy savings

The reduction of energy consumption according to the equivalent need or objective

Actual energy savings

The equivalent condition is the condition in reporting period

Normalized energy savings (deemed energy savings)

The equivalent condition is the normalized or deemed condition
