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.

The European Climate and Energy package foresees a substantial reduction of energy consumptions in buildings by 2020. The implementation of Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (nZEBs) as the building target from 2018 onwards represents one of the biggest challenges to increase energy savings and minimize greenhouse gas emissions.

L’evoluzione dell’attuale sistema elettrico verso il paradigma Smart grid passa non soltanto dalla “smartizzazione” della rete elettrica, ma anche dal rendere intelligenti i diversi “nodi” della rete, primi fra tutti gli edifici, ad oggi responsabili di una quota piuttosto rilevante dei consumi energetici e che, per di più, ospitano crescenti quantità di impianti per la produzione di energia da fonti rinnovabili.

Energy services and the use of energy service companies (ESCOs) can play a critical role in promoting energy efficiency at the market level. Operational since the early 1990s, ESCOs can handle projects, manage or mobilize financial resources, undertake installation and maintenance work as well as assume the performance risk of their projects.

The purpose of this project is to develop an econometric model aimed at estimating the impact of energy efficiency policies on energy consumption in the EU Member States in the period 1990-2013. The aim of the models is to answer three core research questions: 1. Are EU and national energy efficiency policies effective in reducing aggregate energy consumption?

In line with the Energy Union strategy, the EU 2030 climate and energy policy framework sees energy saving as Europe’s first fuel in 2030. Making energy efficiency the mechanism for delivering moderation of demand will enable the EU to meet its objectives in terms of security of supply, climate change, jobs, growth and competitiveness.
