Energy Services Directive

The Energy Services Directive is a regulation that aims to improve energy efficiency and promote sustainable energy use across the European Union. It encourages countries to implement measures that reduce energy consumption, increase the use of renewable energy sources, and improve overall energy performance. This includes supporting initiatives like energy audits, better building standards, and consumer information. The directive also fosters competition among energy providers and aims to empower consumers to make more informed choices about their energy use, ultimately contributing to environmental protection and economic growth within the EU.
