Royal Decree-Law 8/2014 of 4 July, approving urgent measures for growth, competitiveness and efficiency, established a system of obligations for gas and electricity marketing companies, for operators of wholesale petroleum products, and for operators of liquefied petroleum gas wholesale, as from the entry into force of the same.

In order to determine the objective of the annual energy savings of the obligated subjects, and in accordance with Article 70 (2) of the aforementioned Royal Decree-Law 8/2014, the obligated subjects must submit annually, before 30 September to the Directorate-General for Energy Policy and Mines, the final national energy sales data for the previous year, expressed in GWh.

In the light of the foregoing, this Directorate-General considered it necessary to establish the procedure for the fulfilment of that obligation, which was reflected in the Resolution of 8 September 2014 determining the the procedure for the completion of the obligation to send information by the obliged subjects of the energy efficiency obligations system, as regards their energy sales, according to the aforementioned Royal Decree-Law.

Later, Law 18/2014 of October 15, of approval of urgent measures for growth, competitiveness and efficiency, validated the Royal Decree-Law 8/2015, of July 4.

In view of the difficulties encountered in carrying out the calculations of the obligations laid down in Ministerial Order IET/289/2015 of 20 February 2015 laying down the obligations for the contribution to the Fund National of Energy Efficiency in 2015, this Directorate General has considered it necessary to complete the information on the procedure of compliance with the obligation to send information, established in the aforementioned Resolution of 8 of September 2014:

1. The obliged subjects must comply with the obligation to submit information, in accordance with Article 70.2 of Law 18/2014, by sending a communication to the Directorate General for Energy Policy and Mines, using the model set out in the Annex to this Resolution, which must be signed by a natural or legal person with valid accreditation, by means of a notarial power registered in the trade register, in the case of a commercial company, or the one that proceeds, corresponding to the signer of the document.

2. The information must be sent before 30 September each year through the electronic headquarters of the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism, by going to the address: https://sedeaplicaciones.minetur.gob.es/dafne/.

According to the provisions of article 27.6 of Law 11/2007, of 22 June, of electronic access of citizens to public services, the totality of the communications required in the procedure provided for in the This resolution shall be made exclusively by electronic means, through the aforementioned address at the electronic headquarters, by the persons obliged with the General Directorate of Energy Policy and Mines. In addition, the administrative notifications required by the General Directorate of Energy Policy and Mines to be made to the subject will be carried out in the same way with electronic means.

According to the provisions of Article 32.3 of Royal Decree 1671/2009 of 6 November 2009, for which the aforementioned Law 11/2007, dated 22 June, is partially developed, if electronic means are not used to carry out the aforementioned Communications, the General Directorate of Energy Policy and Mines will require the corresponding sub-healing, warning that, if the requirement is not met, the presentation will lack validity or effectiveness.

3. For the completion of the reporting obligation, the following definitions are adopted in this resolution:

a) Electricity sales volume (GWh): Volume of sales of electricity to final consumers, excluding sales to other marketers.

b) Volume of natural gas sales (GWh): Volume of sales of natural gas and liquefied natural gas in the internal market to final consumers, excluding exports, sales to other gas marketers, sales for the production of electrical energy including cogeneration and for its use as raw material.

c) Volume of sales of petroleum products (GWh): Volume of sales of gasoline, gas oils, kerosene and fuel in the internal market, excluding exports, sales destined to international navigation, sales to other operators of wholesale oil products, as well as those for electricity generation including cogeneration and for use as raw materials.

d) LPG sales volume (GWh): Volume of sales of liquefied petroleum gases in the internal market, excluding exports and sales to other operators of wholesale petroleum products and for their use as raw material.

4. For the information referred to in this resolution, the following conversion factors should be used from official statistics:

a) 1 GWh = 0.086 ktep.

(b) For the conversion of quantities into metric tonnes at oil equivalent tonnes, the following conversion factors shall be used, expressed in tonnes of oil/metric tonne equivalents:

1.027

				tep/tm
liquefied gases Oil.		1,099
which	Propane.	1,106

Fueloils.	Lightweight.	1,010
	Pesado.	0.955

Example: Liquefied Petroleum Gas Case:

1 Tm = 1,099 × 10³ ktep

c) For the conversion of quantities in cubic meters to metric tons, actual densities will be used. If the actual density is unknown, and for exclusive purposes of filling this obligation, the following densities may be used (densities at 15 ° C expressed in Tm/m³):

Querogens.

0.775

(*) If the actual density of the "mixture gasolines" and the "biodiesel mixture" is not known, the resulting weight of the quantities of each product contained in the mixture shall be weighted by the quantities (fuel conventional and biofuel)

5. This resolution replaces the Resolution of 8 September 2014, of the Directorate-General for Energy Policy and Mines, determining the procedure for the submission of information of the obliged subjects of the system of obligations of the energy efficiency, as regards its energy sales, in accordance with Royal Decree-Law 8/2014 of 4 July 2014, for the approval of urgent measures for growth, competitiveness and efficiency, and will enter into force on the day of its publication in the "Official State Gazette".
