Energy efficiency of the EU economy is steadily increasing; and
economic growth is being decoupled from energy consumption

Energy efficiency progress can be observed across all sectors:

              Between 1995 and 2010 the average consumption of new
              cars in the EU decreased by 27%

              New dwellings built today consume on average 40% less
              than dwellings built 20 years ago

              The share of refrigerators meeting the highest energy
              efficiency labelling classes (A and above) increased from
              less than 5% in 1995 to more than 90% 15 years later

              EU industry improved its energy intensity by almost 19%
              between 2001 and 2011, compared with 9% in the US
                                                                          4

There is progress in setting the right legislative
framework:
• National Energy Efficiency Action Plans (NEEAP) point to a
  strengthening of current Member State policies and the
  establishment of new policies

• The number of Member States applying energy efficiency obligation
  schemes for utilities is expected to rise from five to sixteen.

• Financing mechanisms under the European Structural and
  Investment Funds are being diversified, with greater use of financial
  instruments.

                                                                          6

At the same time in several cases the transposition
and enforcement of relevant rules is delayed:

• Only six Member States have so far notified full transposition of the
  EED

• At the moment, there are nine Member States that still have not
  completed the transposition process of the EPBD (deadline July
  2012).

• Only a handful of Member States are conducting a proper market
  surveillance of products covered by efficiency requirements.

                                                                      7

The way towards:

         The Energy Union
                   Where we want to go:
A secure, sustainable, competitive, affordable energy for every European

                       What this means:
                  Energy security, solidarity and trust
               A fully integrated internal energy market
                          Energy efficiency first
            Transition to a long-lasting low-carbon society
     An Energy Union for Research, Innovation and Competiveness

                 How we want to reach it:

                                                                           9
1    Secure supplies
We have to become less dependent
on energy from outside the EU: This means increasing transparency on gas
supply; diversifying sources, supplies and routes; working together on security of
supply and developing a stronger European role in global energy markets.

2    Internal energy market
 Energy should flow freely across the EU – without any technical or
 regulatory barriers: This means connecting markets through interconnections
 and implementing and upgrading the internal market's software while enhancing
 regional cooperation and empowering consumers.

 4    Emissions reduction
 An ambitious climate policy is an integral part of our Energy Union: The
 next challenge will be to enforce the 2030 energy and climate framework, while
 becoming the number one in renewables.

 5    Research & innovation
 Developing EU technological leadership in low carbon technologies
                                                                                10
3   Energy efficiency

    Rethink energy efficiency as an
    energy source in its own right

    This means increasing energy efficiency, in particular in the
    building sector, and promoting an energy-efficient and
    decarbonized transport sector as well as efficient products.

                                                                    11

Main challenges…

Putting in place the right policy framework

• Effective implementation of current framework
• Revision in the short and mid-term of certain elements of the
  framework (e.g. Energy Labelling; Art 7 and other elements
  under the EED)

Mobilising investments

• Effective use of European Structural and Investment Funds and
  other funding (EIC, H2020 etc.)
• Work with the financial sector to create the right framework
  conditions for investment (e.g. development of the right
  standards)
• Stimulate demand (through a robust implementation of existing
  and future rules, e.g. on EPCs)
                                                                  13
