This paper offers a tool to evaluate the implementation of energy efficiency actions for the residential sector with a focus on Egypt which adopted a path to achieve 8.6 Mtoe energy savings through 2035. The Country has been divided in climate zones and users classified according to the kind of their typical household in the cities and in the rural areas. The National Energy Efficiency Plan (NEEP) has been taken as a reference, technologies' improvement has been evaluated in terms of savings and costs and a plan from 2017 through 2035 has been detailed by the means of an easy-to-use optimization model. The novelty lies in offering this model a tool allowing an analysis where to spot possible bottlenecks but also hidden potentials in the targeted users, among which photovoltaic for residential applications.

Abstract
This paper offers a tool to evaluate the implementation of energy efficiency actions for the residential sector with a focus on Egypt which adopted a path to achieve 8.6 Mtoe energy savings through 2035. The Country has been divided in climate zones and users classified according to the kind of their typical household in the cities and in the rural areas. The National Energy Efficiency Plan (NEEP) has been taken as a reference, technologies' improvement has been evaluated in terms of savings and costs and a plan from 2017 through 2035 has been detailed by the means of an easy-to-use optimization model. The novelty lies in offering this model a tool allowing an analysis where to spot possible bottlenecks but also hidden potentials in the targeted users, among which photovoltaic for residential applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
