NOM-003-ENER-1995: Thermal efficiency of water heaters for domestic and commercial use
This standard applies to water heaters for domestic and commercial use using L.P. gas or natural gas that produces only hot water. Likewise, it applies only to the following types of heaters: (1) storage (automatic or semi-automatic); (2) rapid recovery; and (3) instantaneous (Type 1 = 9.8 kPa and Type 2 = 10.9 kPa). Thermal loads from 6 to 80 kW. The standard establishes the thermal efficiency that the heaters must achieve based on the lower calorific power as well as the temperature of the water at the outlet. See the attachment for the minimum thermal…

Renovation of multiapartment buildings
This policy is a compensation mechanism under the government's multi-apartment building renovation programme. It is aimed at reducing thermal energy consumption, encouraging rational use of energy resources ensuring efficient use of housing, and improving the living environment and quality of life for the population. It is planned to reduce heating consumption in multi-apartment and public buildings by 30-40% by 2020 and compared to 2011 to save heat from 2 to 3 TWh per year. The financing for renovation (modernisation) of multi-apartment and public buildings is provided from different financial schemes supported from the Climate Change…
