Energy efficiency

(COM(2016)0761 - C8-0498/2016 - 2016/0376(COD))

Proposal for a directive

Article 1 - paragraph 1 - point 1

Directive 2012/27/EU

Article 1 - paragraph 1

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

1. This Directive establishes a common framework of measures to promote energy efficiency within the Union in order to ensure that the Union's 2020 20 % headline targets and its 2030 30 % binding headline targets on energy efficiency are met and paves the way for further energy efficiency improvements beyond those dates. It lays down rules designed to remove barriers in the energy market and overcome market failures that impede efficiency in the supply and use of energy, and provides for the establishment of indicative national energy efficiency targets and contributions for 2020 and 2030.;

1. This Directive establishes a common framework of measures to promote energy efficiency within the Union, implementing the 'energy efficiency first' principle throughout the full energy chain, including energy generation, transmission, distribution and end-use, in order to ensure that the Union's 2020 20 % headline targets and its 2030 35 % binding headline targets on energy efficiency are met and paves the way for further energy efficiency improvements beyond 2030, in line with the Union's long-term energy and climate goals for 2050 and the Paris Agreement. It lays down rules designed to remove barriers in the energy market and overcome market failures that impede efficiency in the supply and use of energy, and provides for the establishment of indicative national energy efficiency targets for 2020 and 2030.;

Article 1 - paragraph 1 - point 2

DIRECTIVE 2012/27/EU

Article 3 - paragraph 4

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

4. Each Member State shall set indicative national energy efficiency contributions towards the Union's 2030 target referred to in Article 1 paragraph 1 in accordance with Articles [4] and [6] of Regulation (EU) XX/20XX [Governance of the Energy Union]. When setting those contributions, Member States shall take into account that the Union's 2030 energy consumption has to be no more than 1 321 Mtoe of primary energy and no more than 987 Mtoe of final energy. Member States shall notify those contributions to the Commission as part of their integrated national energy and climate plans in accordance with the procedure pursuant to Articles [3] and [7] to [11] of Regulation (EU) XX/20XX [Governance of the Energy Union].;

4. Each Member State shall set national energy efficiency targets which shall cumulatively be in line with the Union's 2030 target referred to in Article 1 paragraph 1 and in accordance with Articles[4] and [6] of Regulation (EU) XX/20XX [Governance of the Energy Union]. When setting the level of their targets, Member States shall take into account that the Union's 2030 energy consumption has to be no more than 1220 Mtoe of primary energy and no more than 893 Mtoe of final energy. In order to allow for increased industrial and economic growth alongside the main objectives of this Directive in accordance with Article 1 and to provide sufficient flexibility for Member States to meet their national energy efficiency targets whilst at the same time allowing their economy to develop and industrial output and activity to increase, they shall be permitted to set their targets based on energy intensity which is the ratio between energy consumption and gross domestic product (GDP). The national energy efficiency targets shall take into consideration all stages of the energy chain, including

generation, transmission, distribution and end-use. Member States shall notify those targets to the Commission as part of their integrated national energy and climate plans in accordance with the procedure pursuant to Articles [3] and [7]to [11] of Regulation (EU) XX/20XX [Governance of the Energy Union].;
