Energy Efficiency Directive Under the updated rules, EU countries have agreed to help achieve the EU target by setting indicative national contributions using a combination of objective criteria which reflect national circumstances (energy intensity, GDP per capita, energy savings potential and earlier efforts for energy efficiency by EU countries)
New Energy Efficiency Directive published The new, recast Energy Efficiency Directive (EU) 2023 1791, which was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council earlier this year, has been published in the EU Official Journal today and will enter into force in 20 days
Energy efficiency targets Ambitious energy efficiency targets are key to driving Europe’s energy transition By using energy more efficiently, and thereby consuming less, Europeans can lower their energy bills, help protect the environment, mitigate climate change, improve their quality of life, reduce the EU's reliance on external suppliers of oil and gas and support the sustainable growth of the EU economy
The new 2023 Energy Efficiency Directive - Europa the 2023 EED, which are expected to be released in the autumn of 2023, but should be seen as the Coalition’s effort to contribute in a meaningful way to the EED transposition and implementation process Introduction 1 The text of the 2023 EED recast, pending legal review and final adoption, can be found here
Revised Energy Efficiency Directive: New rules, more savings, higher . . . The legal text of the final agreement on the EED recast The Cambridge Econometrics’ study quantifying the multiple benefits of higher energy efficiency targets The Coalition for Energy Savings’ policy briefing on the EED agreement About the author: Arianna Vitali is Secretary General at the Coalition for Energy Savings since 2021
Commission publishes recommendation on energy efficiency financing . . . The Directive (EU) 2023 1791 on energy efficiency (‘EED recast’) raises the level of ambition for 2030 in terms of energy efficiency, by establishing a new, binding target for reducing EU energy consumptions by 11 7% by 2030 relative to forecast energy consumption for 2030 (as forecast in 2020)
A GUIDE TO THE 2030 ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGET - Europa The EED recast proposal suggests making the EU headline target binding for both its PEC and FEC objectives Therefore, the EED recast grants the energy efficiency target the same legal weight as the climate and renewable energy targets Indicative national contributions based on an indicative formula
Ensuring robust final NECP updates is vital to EED implementation Only four out of the 26 countries have submitted draft plans that are ‘almost compliant’ with new EED 13 countries have submitted draft plans that do not consistently address the new elements of the EED in an adequate manner (‘updated but insufficient’), five countries have only ‘partially updated’ their NECPs, neglecting to
