Article 7 insight: Global Outlook

The ENSPOL project focusses on the implementation of existing and planned Energy Efficiency Obligation schemes (EEOs) and alternative policy measures in EU Member States (MS).
There is significant experience of EEOs in several countries and regions within countries outside the EU. The ENSPOL project has undertaken an analysis of this non-EU experience, including both design and results of EEO policies, drawing conclusions and making recommendations for EU Member States considering EEOs as a means of implementing Article 7 of the EED.
A number of relevant examples to provide useful information for EU and MS stakeholders and policy makers were identified, based on longevity of experience, scale and good evaluation of EEOs (see below for details and links to further information).
