A report by the Energy Efficiency Watch has highlighted an ‘enormous disparity’ in how the 28 EU member states inact energy efficiency policies.
EU legislation requires that member states submit National Energy Efficiency Action Plans (NEEAPS) in the years 2007, 2011 and 2014 outlining plans to achieve 9% energy savings by 2016.
Bulgaria, Denmark, France and the UK have been praised for their efforts however others are attempting to do the bare minimum to comply with Directives while some fail to meet the Directives altogether.
The report concludes that national policies will have to be improved to ensure additional energy savings of at least 1%.
