The European Community, together with its Member States, is working intensively to improve energy efficiency in all end-use sectors whilst at the same time increasing the use of renewable energies. This decade will be crucial to solve environmental, self-sufficiency and cost problems and adequately provide for increasing needs for lighting, heating, cooling and motive power without major upheavals. This is especially true when seen in the light of the Kyoto Agreement to reduce CO2 emissions, where improved energy efficiency will play a key role in meeting the EU Kyoto target in an economic way. |
