EU and the Future of the Energy Efficiency
An important vote is imminent in the European Parliament on 28 November, a vote whose result will largely determine the Parliament’s position in negotiating upcoming amendments of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED). The European Commission (EC) proposed a revised objective of a 30% binding European Union (EU) energy efficiency target, aiming to align EU energy legislation with its 2030 energy and climate policy goals. The ambition of the European Commission, however, falls far short of the European Parliament ‘s expectations.
