EU “Save Energy” communication – FEDARENE Briefing

As part of its REPowerEU plan, the Commission published on 18th of May an ‘EU Save Energy Communication to enhance long-term energy efficiency measures, based on the idea that saving energy now will help us to prepare for the potential challenges of next winter. According to the Commission, these short term behavioural changes could cut gas and oil demand by 5% but to achieve these results, targeted communication campaigns will be needed.

The plan takes a two-pronged approach, differentiating between immediate energy savings through voluntary choices and structural, mid- to long-term energy efficiency measures.

Our document also addresses the contingency planning foreseen by the Commission, which will require coordination and action from all Member States.
