Amendment 127 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 2
(2) The Presidency Conclusions of the European Council of 8 and 9 March 2007 emphasized the need to increase energy efficiency in the Union to achieve the objective of saving 20% of the Union's primary energy consumption by 2020 compared to projections. This amounts to a reduction of the Union's primary energy consumption of 368 Mtoe in 2020 or to an improvement of the Union's energy intensity to 104 tonnes of oil equivalent per million euro gross domestic product expressed in 2005 prices. This Directive represents, in combination with a number of existing legislative measures (such as the emissions trading scheme, the Renewable Energy Directive, the Ecodesign Directive, etc), an important instrument to achieve the objective.

Amendment 193 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 15
(15) The rate of building renovation needs to be increased, as the existing building stock represents the single biggest potential sector for energy savings. Moreover, buildings are crucial to achieving the EU objective of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80-95% by 2050 compared to 1990. Buildings owned by public bodies account for a considerable share of the building stock and have high visibility in public life. It is therefore appropriate to set an annual rate of renovation of all buildings owned by public bodies to upgrade their energy performance. This renovation rate should be without prejudice to the obligations with regard to nearly- zero energy buildings set in Directive 2010/31/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 May 2010 on the energy performance of buildings. The obligation to renovaterecommendation to annually renovate a rate of public buildings stock complements the provisions of that Directive, which requires Member States to ensure that when existing buildings undergo major renovation their energy performance is upgraded so that they meet minimum energy performance requirements.

Amendment 253 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 23
(23) High-efficiency cogeneration (CHP) and district heating and cooling has significant potential for saving primary energy which is largely untapped in the Union. Member States should draw up national plansanalyses of their potential to develop high-efficiency CHP and district heating and cooling. These plans should cover a sufficiently long period toMember States should aim at provideing investors with information concerning national development plans anover a sufficiently long period which would contribute to a stable and supportive investment environment. NWhere the cost-benefit analysis is positive, new electricity generation installations and existing installations which are substantially refurbished or whose permit or licence is updated should be equipped with high-efficient CHP units to recover waste heat stemming from the production of electricity. This waste heat could then be transported where it is needed through district heating networks. To this end, Member States should adopt authorisation criteria to ensure the location of installations in sites close to heat demand points. Member States should however be able to lay down conditions for exemption from these obligations where certain conditions are met. When adopting authorisation criteria Member States should ensure that the regional and local competences as regards spatial planning are fully respected.

Amendment 300 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 35
(35) Directive 2006/32/EC requires Member States to adopt and aim to achieve an overall national indicative energy savings target of 9% by 2016, to be reached by deploying energy services and other energy efficiency improvement measures. That Directive states that the second Energy Efficiency Plan adopted by the Member States shall be followed, as appropriate and where necessary, by Commission proposals for additional measures, including extending the period of application of targets. If a report concludes that insufficient progress has been made towards achieving the indicative national targets laid down by that Directive, these proposals are to address the level and nature of the targets. The impact assessment accompanying this Directive finds that the Member States are on track to achieve the 9% target, which is substantially less ambitious than the subsequently adopted 20% energy savingefficiency target for 2020, and therefore there is no need to address the level of the targetsambition.
