SHAMCI Solar Heater Certification, Ashraf Kraidy, RCREEE
Energy Consumption and Water Heating Demand
-Background-
• Building in the Arab region consumes 1/3 of the total
energy consumption.
• The annual growth rate is 5.4%
• Water heating consumes 4-12% of the final energy
consumption in building in the Arab region
• SWHs can replace electric heaters, NG heaters or diesel
heaters.

How a certification program coordinate the Key
Elements for sustainable solar thermal market
The certification is a process to engage the
market of SWHs to a quality system that is
regularly bringing changes in the:
 Institutional framework,
 Regulatory framework
 Procedures
 Standards
What is Certification
Ensure the quality of:
 Products and Equipment
 The qualification of installers

Certification Direct Objectives
1. Bigger and Sustainable Market
2. Suitable Products
3. Enhanced User Confidence
4. Increased sales
5. More Rational Production
6. Lower prices
What we NEED SWHs certification in our countries.....
The Executive office of the electricity Arab ministerial council
raised a request to RCREEE and AIDMO (Arabian Industrial
Development and Mining Organization) to coordinate with the
council secretariat to work on standardization and certification
program for SWHs aiming to achieve a quality certificate for
the Arab region.
New Strategy for Solar Thermal Promotion in the
Arab Region
What is SHAMCI Certification Scheme?
ï‚— SHAMCI is first Arab quality certification scheme
for the solar thermal products and services in the
Arab region.
ï‚— SHAMCI provides a regional industrial and regulatory
compliance framework for policy makers, industrial
sector, and end-consumers.
ï‚— SHAMCI promotes adopting standard quality
measures, accreditation systems and quality labels
across the Arab region.
ï‚— SHAMCI is built around specific characteristics and
needs of Arab states in the Middle East and North
Africa.
Why SHAMCI-Certified Products?
Authorities:
ï‚— Facilitate trade barriers and international
collaboration
ï‚— Streamline compliance monitoring
ï‚— Create jobs
ï‚— Promote industrial quality standards compliance
Why SHAMCI-Certified Products?
Manufacturers:
ï‚— Achieve operational economies of scale
ï‚— Create new market entry and export opportunities
ï‚— Improve product visibility to customers
Why SHAMCI-Certified Products?
Consumers:
ï‚— Identify high-quality products easily
ï‚— Assure safety, durability, and reliability measures
ï‚— Evaluate prices through standard product features
SHAMCI Network
SHAMCI Network….. is an international stakeholders
network which is responsible for developing and running
SHAMCI.
Mission….Support solar energy markets by establishing
and maintaining a certification
programme that ensures a
specific quality for solar
thermal products and services
in the Arab region.
