9. STEP LIFE CYCLE, CYCLE OPTIMIZATION, SEGMENTATION TRANSFORMERS
METHOD
Why transformers and What?
11. ➢Who is responsible for the environmental impact?
➢90% of the environmental impact depends on use
➢The rest is the extraction, production and processing of materials
➢The life cycle is evaluated by:
➢The environmental profile of the components
➢The life, the load factor and efficiency of the transformer
➢How electricity is generated
The COST OF USE is the determining factor for the choice
09 July 2018 11
HOW TO OPTIMISE ENERGY EFFICIENCY
USE COST
12. The CO2 emission is mainly due to losses
Transformers that will produce the less losses during their life are
optimum for the production of CO2
To be win-win (User, EC) the method of the European Commission was
calculate the overall cost to the user over a given period of time
The Commission also assessed the economy in terms of energy and in
terms of volume of CO2 in future years
09 July 2018 12
THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE COMMISSION ON THE METHOD
METHOD
14. BC1-Distribution Transformers:(400kVA)
BC2-Industry Transformers: Oil immersed(1MVA)
BC3-Industry Transformers: Dry type (1,25MVA)
BC4-Power Transformers(100MVA 132/33kV)
BC5-DER Transformers: Oil immersed (2MVA)
BC6-DER Transformers: Dry type (2MVA)
BC7-Separation/Isolation Transformers(16kVA)
09 July 2018 14
SEGMENTATION OF THE APPLICATION
SEVERAL CATEGORIES WERE EVALUATED
15. ≤ 3150kVA transformers (Standards exist)
The Least Life cycle cost (LLCC)
The best available technology (BAT)
Transformers> 3150kVA (No prior standard)
Elimination of 25% of the least effective designs (2015)
Elimination of 50% of the least effective designs (2021)
09 July 2018 15
VARIOUS SCENARIO WERE TESTED
16. ❖ To calculate the amount of CO2 and the energy saved:
The park of installed transformers
The growth of the park
❖ To calculate the total cost of the energy consumed must be known
➢ The lifetime to consider between 30 and 40 years
➢ Transformer load factor (between 0.15 and 0.5)
➢ The cost of kWH (from 0.08 to 0.15 € /Kwh)
➢ The annualisation rate (4%)
❖ These elements allow to calculate the total cost of use and the cost of
buying
❖ Cost for User = Cost of use + Cost of the transformer
09 July 2018 16
THE CALCULATION METHOD
CO2-ENERGY CONSUMED-PRICE-COST OF USE
17. ➢Distribution transformers for utilities and industrials (oil and dry)
Total installed 5040000 units
Distribution transformer yield 98.38%
> Power Transformers
Total installed 65500 units
Performance of power transformers 99%
Total transformers park’s losses in Europe was 93,4 TWh per year

• The potential for improvement with
more efficient transformers was
estimated:
• 16.2 TWh per year in 2025
• 3.7 Mt emission CO2.
WHAT IS THE SAVING
21. ✓ Before eco-design: 435 types (P0 Pk)
✓ 300types of immersed transformers 135 types of dry
type
✓ With Eco-design (01.07.2015) 35 types (P0 Pk)
✓ 20types of Liquids 15 type of Dry type
✓ Fewer components (Foil, tanks, conductors
Load losses -15%> 800kVA
No load losses -50%
Load losses -15%
No load losses -35%
✓ A new standard EN50588
09 July 2018 21
STANDARDISATION ON DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS
GAIN FOR MANUFACTURERS BY A VERY EFFECTIVE STANDARDISATION
24. ➢ The economic impact of the use being strong, the impact of
standardization of components is lower, the load factor is very
variable
➢ A method was developed to account for these factors
➢ The PEI(Peak efficiency index) is the derivative of the efficiency equation
Then No load losses as well load losses can be calculated

EVOLUTION OF THE LOSSES WITH EN50629
SAVING OF EFFICIENCY
27. ❖ Increases the price, dimensions and weights
❖ Standardization of production by having a single level of losses
❖ The transitional period has been difficult
❖ Market surveillance is not ready in most countries
❖ Manufacturers are responsible for implementation
❖ Some uncertainties that special appliances

EUROPEAN COUNTRY IS EXEMPLARY FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY
IMPROVEMENT OF EFFICIENCY
31. ✓ For Raw material producers:
✓ Optimizing components performance
✓ Optimize the end of life components (not in eco-design)
✓ For transformers manufacturers:
✓ Optimize Performance
✓ Having tools to determine the best efficiency for equipment
✓ View performance
✓ For users:
✓ Determine the usage profile
✓ Declaring performance improvements
✓ For policy:
✓ Show the impact of energy efficiency policy on the environment
09 July 2018 31
IMPLICATIONS FOR BUSINESS AND POLITICS
ONLY ADVANTAGES
33. ✓ The impact of energy consumption during the use phase remains dominant.
✓ Current transformer models available in the market fulfil minimum Tier 1
✓ There are no technical barriers to manufacture Tier 2
✓ The lifecycle costs for Tier 2 compliant medium and large power
transformers are always lower than Tier 1 in new installation sites
✓ Medium power transformers are being used to replace old ones can become
uneconomic under relative low loading conditions.
✓ An existing regulatory exemption for the replacement of large power
transformers related to disproportionate costs
✓ Guidance to upgrade, repair, refurbishment and retrofitting is needed
33
ASSESEMENT OF 2015 AND 2021 REVISION
COMMISSION REVIEW THE REGULATION IN THE CONSULTATION FORUM IN 2017
34. ✓ Some improvements regarding the definitions of the exemptions
(Minimum rated power 5kVA,Wind turbine, and solar, offshore,
emergency ,Nuclear)
✓ Change regarding some definitions(Medium Power
transformers(3150kVA), declared values ,Pole mounted, Upgraded and
retrofit, Localisation and way to make the tests, Correction of losses
for 3,6kV)
✓ Fixed losses are kept for transformers up to 3150kVA & ≤ «36kV
✓ PEI shall be applied for transformers > 3150kVA or >36kV
✓ Some concessions should be possible if the cost are disproportionate
for replacement or for new sites.
✓ FAT can be use by Surveillance market authorities for the surveillance
of the market09 July 2018 34
UPDATED OF THE REGULATION AFTER ASSESSMENT
IMPROVEMENT OF THE REGULATION
35. ✓ If the installation of TIER 2 transformers is disproportionate then:
✓ In case of replacement(Brown field) of transformers <=3150kVA then TIER 1 can
be applied
✓ In case of replacement of a transformers >3150KVA then TIER 1 can be applied
and in worse case they will have no requirement if the cost of TIER 1 is also
disproportionate
✓ In case of a new site(Green field) >3150KVA then TIER 1 can be applied too
✓ Disproportionate cost means a cost of installation >cost of use on the
life cycle of the transformers (Include the cost of electricity, room,
connexions,….
✓ The manufacturer or the importer of the transformers to put the
information in technical documentation with the analysis of the offer
(without commercial information)
09 July 2018 35
UPDATED OF THE REGULATION AFTER ASSESSMENT
IMPROVEMENT OF THE REGULATION
36. ➢ A lower losses what ever the kind of transformers
➢ Better optimization of energy costs for the user with a suitable choice
➢ Standardization of components for distribution transformers ≤3150kVA
➢ Sensitization to a better definition of the need for power to reduce
user costs
