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.

Greenhouse gas emission savings due to renewable energy (2009-12)
Policy context
The EU has made a unilateral commitment to reduce in 2020 the overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from its Member States by 20% compared to 1990 levels putting a legally binding target of 20 % of gross final energy consumption (GFEC) from renewable energy sources.

On 26 September 2015 new Ecodesign standards for home boilers, and corresponding labelling coming alongside, entered into force. Energy efficient heaters and water heaters in households can save European consumers €30 billion by 2020. For example, if your home is equipped with a conventional gas boiler using 20 MWh of energy per year, a new condensing gas boiler can save you €700 per year. A new boiler will pay back its...

Based on the priority currently given by the European Union to the energy efficiency topic through its Energy Union Package, this feasibility study has focused on the role of location data in support of energy efficiency policies, taking into account the requirements of INSPIRE, EPBD and EED Directives, as well as the CoM initiative. The EU Member States are already due to implement such Directives according to different...

Final energy consumption experienced in Europe an increase in absolute terms of 10% between 1990 and 2006 where the consumption peaked at 1190 Mtoe. Over this period, the share of the final energy consumption of residential and non-residential buildings increased from 35.4% to 37.7% . This made buildings the largest single end-use of energy in Europe.
