OBJECTIVE
European Energy Efficiency Action Plan
Mobilisation of the
general public
policy-makers
market actors
to achieve the
20% primary energy
savings objective
2007 - 2012: Implementation period for85 measures in 6 priority areas:
Dynamic energy performance requirements for energy-using products, buildings and energy services
Improving energy transformation
Moving on transport
Financing energy efficiency, economic incentives and energy pricing
Changing energy behaviour
International partnerships
ACTION PLAN
Comprehensive set of legislation to enhance
energy efficiency
• Directive for the taxation of energy products and electricity
Proposal for revision in 2008
• Energy end-use efficiency and energy services Directive (ESD) Services
• Directive on the promotion of cogeneration (CHP)Generation
Buildings• Energy performance of buildings Directive (EPBD)
• Directive establishing a framework for the setting of eco-design requirements for energy-using products (implementing directives for e.g. boilers, refrigerators, freezers and ballasts for fluorescent lighting)
Eco-Design
• Directives for labelling of e.g. electric ovens, air-conditioners, refrigerators and other domestic appliances
• Regulation of Energy Star labelling for office equipment
Product
Labelling
Taxation
National Energy Efficiency Action Plans
• Main tool in the planning, implementation and monitoring of energy
efficiency policy, also with the view to longer term objectives like the
20% by 2020 and beyond. Active policy development tool at the national,
regional and local level.
• Translation of energy savings objectives into concrete and coherent
measures and actions in each MS.
• Demonstrate the role of energy efficiency with regard to climate
change and other relevant policy objective placing energy efficiency within
a broader policy context - going beyond the reporting requirements of the
ESD.
• Capturing synergies and avoid duplication.
• Trigger exchange of experiences and best practices between MS.
Objectives
Assessment
of 1st NEEAPs• Wide diversity of policy packages and individual measures targeting
different end-use sectors – COM Working Doc. SEC/2009/889,June 09.
• Very heterogeneous in nature with regard to scope and coverage, the
level of detail provided about measures and expected savings.
• Minimum reporting requirements of the ESD not always fulfilled.
• Gap between political commitment and concrete commitment in the Plan.

Financing energy efficiency
• 2007-13 about 9billion € for RES &energy efficiencyprojects allocated (LT : 367 M€ )
• New possibilitiesby change of ERDF allocation to EE/RE in existing housing in EU-27 (LT:max.138 M€ )
• Reallocation of 91 M€ from priority 2 to 1
EIB and EBRD
-JESSICA holding fund ( 227 M€ )
- EBRD : renovation private/public buildings ( 29 M€ ) under Ignalina Decom.Support Fund ( IIDSF)
Call for urgent,coordinated measures, notably in buildings :.New PPP for research in construction etc ( FP7 call deadline 3 Nov. 09 )

HUDA apartment renovations
• 25M€ budget
• Residents fund ~ 50%
• Exterior wall, window and roof renovations
Hospital and schools renovations
• 4.2M€ budget
• 2 hospitals and 1 school – to be extended
• Roof and exterior wall cladding
International co-operations on energy efficiency
• Russia• Brazil• China• India• Norway• USA
International Organisations

• International Partnership on Energy Efficiency Collaboration (IPEEC): G8 + China, India, Korea
• Heiligendamm Dialogue Process: G8 + Brazil, China, India, Mexico and South Africa.
• Energy Charter Protocol on Energy Efficiency(> 50 member countries)
• Energy Community Efficiency Task Force
• Baltic Sea Region Energy Cooperation (BASREC)
AGENDA
• Main energy savings policy areas
• New policy developments
• Future challenges and responses
Recent policy developments
• Energy efficiency is placed at the heart of
EU energy policy
• Second Strategic Energy Review (SER II)
• Economic Recovery Plan

Current policy measures insufficient to achieve 20% saving objective in 2020
Immediate initiatives are proposed for buildings, products and CHP
Appeal to MS to implement energy efficiency legislation more swiftly and effectively
More financing tools will be developed to enhance energy efficiency

• Transport: up to 30%
• Commercial buildings: up to 26%
• Households: up to 25% ( LT >35 % ?)¹ Wuppertal Institute 2005.

Key EU legislation:
Energy Performance of Buildings Directive
(EPBD, 2002/91/EC)
Energy Performance of Buildings Directive –
recast(1) Elimination of the 1000 m2 threshold for existing buildings when
they undergo a major renovation
Eliminating/lowering of the threshold also for
- Display of Energy Performance Certificates in public buildings
- Assessment on installation of alternative systems for new build
Minimum energy performance requirements for new
buildings and major renovations:
Benchmarking to achieve cost-optimal levels
Energy Performance of Buildings Directive –
recast(2)
Strengthening the role and the quality of energy performance
certificates – i.a. quality checks and use of the performance
indicator in advertisements for sale or rent
Strengthening the role and the quality of inspections (HVAC)
Addressing the public sector to act as leading example
Stimulating the market entry of low/zero carbon
and energy buildings, such as “passive houses”
Clarification/simplification of provisions and
definitions
Energy Performance of Buildings Directive –
recast(3)
Political agreement between EU Institutions on 17 Nov. 2009
Issuance and Display of certificates
Financing : European Commission statement
Public sector to act as leading example
“Nearly zero energy buildings” ( not low energy)
Cost optimal methodology : benchmarking process

AGENDA
• Main energy savings policy areas
• New policy developments
• Future challenges and responses
Investments in energy efficiency pay off 2030 - Global GHG abatement cost curve beyond business-as-usual
Many remaining challenges…
…Long decision making chainfrom Brussels to final consumers.
…Lack of incentives for energy companiesto take savings measures for their clients despite their key position
…27 Member Sates: different
climate, economy, consumers’ habits.
…Many energy saving actions are not in the scope of internal
market, demanding special attention to subsidiarity.
…Slow implementation
speed of the existing legislation.
…Lack of consumer awareness on the benefits of energy savings.
…Complexity of financing: small scale actions and missing organisational and administrative structures.
…Mixing up of energy efficiency and actual energy savings in the policy debate, ignoring the difficulties of measuring energy savings.
…Reluctance from political decision makers to touch upon delicate behaviour-related issues.
… and so on
Next steps
Saving energy is what matters: improved Energy efficiency is a means to achieve the 20% energy saving objective at EU level
