Energy Efficiency Industrial Forum Position Paper 

In a move to support and give further momentum to the European Commission efforts towards energy efficiency, the Energy Efficiency Industry Forum has put forward a position paper highlighting the role of energy efficiency in energy security.

Energy efficiency is not an alternative to energy security but rather a vital component in achieving it. It is time that the Commission demonstrates strong leadership in pushing for more effective use of existing solutions.

  3. Communicate strong commitment to full and timely implementation of existing legislation on energy efficiency.

The Energy Efficiency Industry Forum brings together major energy efficiency industry players in Europe:
