Résumé

This paper, prepared by the Directorate-General for Energy and Transport of the European Commission, seeks to put energy savings higher on the agenda. Faced with increasing oil prices and the prospects of having 70% of its energy needs covered by imports by 2030, the European Union needs to start a discussion on how to save energy. It lists a number of options to save 20% of energy consumption by 2020 in a cost-effective way through changes in consumer behaviour and energy-efficient technologies. These savings would allow the EU to save an estimated EUR 60 billion on its energy bill. This will in turn represent investments in the EU economy where European industry can strengthen its lead. The options listed by this paper embrace all sectors: production and end-use, industry and services, households and buildings, transport and international relations. They concern all stakeholders, from national, regional and local decision-makers, to banks, international institutions and individual consumers. The Commission suggests a wide range of policy tools, including financial incentives, regulations, setting of objectives, information and training and international dialogue. The paper, along with a slide presentation, can be downloaded in 20 languages from the Web site: www.europa.eu.int/comm/energy/efficiency/index_en.htm.
