“Energy efficiency targets. The 2012 directive, as amended in 2018 and 2023, sets rules and obligations for the EU’s 2030 energy efficiency targets.

The EU has set ambitious targets for 2030 to reduce primary and final energy consumption as part of its 2050 decarbonisation objectives.

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. To achieve these benefits, energy efficiency needs to be improved across the entire energy supply chain, from production to final consumption.

EU energy efficiency measures focus on sectors with the greatest potential for energy savings, such as the construction and renovation of buildings, transport and energy supply sectors, or where a harmonised approach across EU countries is necessary, such as a uniform energy labelling system.

It is important to remember that the benefits of energy savings must outweigh the costs associated with renovations and other adjustments. As such, the EU is committed to implementing energy efficiency measures that deliver tangible benefits to individuals, businesses, and the environment in the long run.”
