Article 6 – paragraph 1
Article 6 – paragraph 1
1. 1. Each Member State shall set up an energy efficiency obligation scheme. This scheme shall ensure that either all energy distributors or all retail energy sales companies operating on the Member State's territory achieve annual energy savings equal to 1.5%as a quota of their energy sales, by volume, in the previous year in that Member State excluding energy used in transport. This amount of energy savings shall be achieved by the obligated parties among final customers, as contribution to the national target as set pursuant to Article 3 of this Directive, taking into account the Union’s target of 20% energy savings by 2020. This amount of energy savings shall be achieved by the obligated parties among final customers. The energy saving target shall be introduced gradually and with a starting level differentiated on a national basis in order to take into full account early actions and results achieved so far, including efficiency measures already adopted in the fuel sector. Measures that target long-term savings or structured programs proposed by operators in the energy efficiency sector should be encouraged through incentives or specific fiscal treatment.

Article 10 – paragraph 1
Article 10 – paragraph 1
1. By 1 January 2014, Member States shall establish and notify to the Commission a national heating and cooling plan for developing the potential for the application of high-efficiency cogeneration and efficient district heating and cooling, containing the information set out in Annex VII.. Each national plan shall identify: (a) national cogeneration development targets for year 2020 and corresponding intermediate targets; (b) district heating promotion areas for which cost-benefit analysis have identified cogeneration potential; (c) the information set out in Annex VII. (d) The plans should be based on a comprehensive costs/benefits analysis for each of the planned investments, taking into account the existing level of heat demand and evaluating the different consumption profiles (e. g. industrial, residential or tertiary consumption patterns). Moreover, different types of cogeneration (micro, for self- consumption…) should be considered on the basis of the specificities of different national demand and consumption patterns. (e) The plans shall be updated and notified to the Commission every five years. Member States shall ensure by means of their regulatory framework that national heating and cooling plans are taken into account in local and regional development plans, including urban and rural spatial plans, and fulfil the design criteria in Annex VII.

6. Member States shall ensure that, in the promotion areas with cogeneration potential as identified according to paragraph 2, whenever an existing electricity generation installation with a total rated thermal input exceeding 20 MW is substantially refurbished or when, in accordance with Article 21 of Directive 2010/75/EC, its permit is updated, the technical and economic feasibility of a conversion to allow its operation as a high- efficiency cogeneration installation is set as a preferential condition in the new or updated permit or licence, provided that the installation is sited in a location where the waste heare is sufficient can be used by heat demand points in accordance with point 1 of Annex VIIId long-term stable heat demand. The equipment of electricity generation installations with carbon capture or storage facilities shall not be considered as refurbishment for the purpose of these provisions.
