Eurovent feedback on the roadmap for the EED review

Eurovent supports the energy efficiency (EE) first principle. While outlining the future EE requirements the implementation of the National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs) of the member must be assessed and enforcement of the NECPs be strengthened so that the EED may reach its targets. EE in the building sector can provide a major share of EE but health and cost aspects should be borne in mind.

Eurovent feedback on the roadmap for energy system integration

Eurovent would like to provide feedback to the European Commission on the roadmap for the strategy for energy system integration. Energy efficiency should be the core principle in any clean energy strategy. Together with renewable energy, electrification, and energy storage, it provides most of the mitigation measures required to reach the EU climate targets while ensuring a secure and reliable energy supply. HVACR technologies are a key part of the solution.
