60 GW of offshore wind and at least 1 GW of ocean energy by 2030
-
80% of final consumers equipped with smart meters within seven years or 2024
-
14% renewable energy in transport sector by 2030
-
annual 1.3% increase in renewable energy in heating and cooling sector
-
32% renewable energy by 2030
-
achieve 18% of the toal increase in the share of energy from renewable sources between that Member State's binding 2020 national target, and its contribution to the 2030 target by 2022, 43% by 2025, 65% by 2027
-
install at least 40 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers in the EU by 2030 and produce up to 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen
-
install at least 6 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers in the EU by 2024 and produce up to 1 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen
-
6 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers in the EU by 2024 and 40 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers by 2030
-
green hydrogen production of up to 14 TWh2 by 2030Source:
-
0,8 % savings of annual final energy consumption, averaged over the most recent three-year period prior to 1 January 2019
-
3 % of the total floor area of heated and/or cooled buildings owned and occupied by its central government is renovated each year
-
the Union's 2030 energy consumption has to be no more than 1 128 Mtoe of primary energy and/or no more than 846 Mtoe of final energy.
-
the Union’s 2020 energy consumption has to be no more than 1 483 Mtoe of primary energy or no more than 1 086 Mtoe of final energy
-
Installing at least 6 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers in the EU by 2024 and 40 GW of renewable hydrogen electrolysers by 2030
-
The biofuels and bio-liquids should contribute to a reduction of at least 35% of GHG emissions. From 2017, their share in emissions savings should be increased to 50% by 2020
-
The Union's 2020 energy consumption has to be no more than 1 474 Mtoe of primary energy or no more than 1 078 Mtoe of final energy by 2020 against a 2012 baseline
-
Obligated energy distributors and/or retail energy sales companies achieve a cumulative end-use energy savings target by 31 December 2020 at least equivalent 1.5% a year from 2014 to 2020 of the annual energy sales to final customers of all energy distributors or all retail energy sales companies by volume, averaged over the most recent 3-year period prior to 2013 by 2020 against a 2012 baseline
-
20% reduction in primary energy use compared with projected levels, by improving energy efficiency by 2020 against a 2009 baseline
-
Energy distributors or retail energy sales companies have to achieve 1.5% energy savings per year through the implementation of energy efficiency measures by 2020 against a 2009 baseline
-
On 30 November 2016 the Commission proposed an update to the Energy Efficiency Directive, including a new 30% energy efficiency target for 2030 by 2030 against a 1990 baseline
-
An indicative target at the EU level of at least 27% is set for improving energy efficiency in 2030 compared to projections of future energy consumption based on the current criteria by 2030 against a 2014 baseline
-
20% of EU energy consumption to come from renewable resources by 2020
-
Union's 2020 20% headline target on energy efficiency by 2020 against a 2012 baseline
-
An EU target of at least 27% is set for the share of renewable energy consumed in the EU by 2030
