On 5 April 2016 the JRC presented the interactive and collaborative online European Energy Efficiency Platform. This beta platform is conceived to fill the gap opened by scattered data and fragmented knowledge resulting from a rapidly growing energy efficiency market. It is expected to be both a one-stop shop for information retrieval and a meeting point for experts to exchange data and reduce redundant activities.

Policies and Targets
Energy Generation and Distribution
21 EU Member States have submitted up to now according to Article 22 of Directive 2009/28/EC their third progress reports on renewable energy development in European Union during period 2013-2014. Based on this preliminary results 5 Member States have exceeded in year 2014 their 2020 target on the overall renewable energy share.

Industry
Results from this recent JRC study show that, in 2050, the energy consumption and direct greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the European aluminium industry could be decreased by 21% and 66%, respectively, if the sector adopts innovative technological solutions instead of following a conservative technology deployment path.

Policies and Targets
Energy Generation and Distribution
Energy Efficiency and Renewables Unit of the Directorate for Energy, Transport and Climate, Joint Research Centre, European Commission has launched the "NREAPs and progress reports Data Portal" providing access to more than 40 000 raw data from the EU Member States. The Data Portal gives access to 60 indicators in each EU Member States covering 3 sectors: Electricity, Heating/Cooling and Transport.
