Article 4 – paragraph 1
1. WIn order to implement the national plan referred to Article 3a and without prejudice to Article 79 of Directive 2010/31/EU, Member States shall ensure that as from 1 January 2014, at least 3% of the total floor area owned by theiror occupied by public bodies is renovated each yearsubject annually to mdeet at least the minimum energy performance requirements set by the Member State concerned in application of Article 4 of Directive 2010/31/EU. The 3% ratep or staged deep renovation. "Deep renovation” means a refurbishment that reduces the primary energy consumption of a building by at least 40% compared with the pre- renovation levels. The energy performance of the building shall be calculated oin the total floor area of buildings with a total useful floor area over 250 m2 owned by the public bodies of the Member State concerned that, on 1 January of each year, does not meet the national minimum energy performance raccordance with the methodology developed by Member States according to Article 3 of Directive 2010/31/EU. If appropriate, deep renovation (and deep staged renovation) should take into account the building envelope, the building equirepments set in application of Article 4 of Directive 2010/31/EU. , operation and maintenance and consumers behaviour.
Amendment 686 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 6 – paragraph 1
Article 6 – paragraph 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%set by Member states a percentage 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 customersdistributors and final customers. This annual energy savings shall lead to achievement of the target set in Article 3(2).
Amendment 961 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 8 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4
Article 8 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4
In case of heating and cooling, where a building is supplied from a district heating network or by central heating, a heat meter shall be installed at the building entry or at the outlet of the boiler respectively. In multi-apartmen unit buildings, individual heat consumption metermetering devices shall also be installed to measure the consumption of heat or cooling for each apartmenunit. Where the use of individual heat consumption meters is not technically or economically feasible, individual heat cost allocators, in accordance with the specifications in Annex VI(1.2), shall be used for measuring heat consumption at each radiator.
Amendment 1023 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 8 – paragraph 3 a (new)
Article 8 – paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. This Article shall not apply when a cost-benefit analysis shows that the costs of individual meters installation outweigh the benefits determined by potential savings of final customers. When the economic assessment of roll-out of smart meters according to Directive 2009/72/EC results in favour of their implementation, time provision set by paragraph 2 shall not apply.
Amendment 1061 #
Proposal for a directive
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 including the upgrade of existing district heating and cooling networks, containing the information set out in Annex VII. 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.

2. Member States shall take the necessary measures to develop efficient district heating and cooling infrastructure including the upgrade of existing infrastructure, to accommodate the development of high- efficiency cogeneration and the use of heating and cooling from waste heat and renewable energy sources in accordance with paragraphs 1, 3, 6 and 7. When developing district heating and cooling, they shall to the extent possible opt for high-efficiency cogeneration rather than heat-only generation.
