The important issues of energy efficiency and the development of renewable energies must, in principle, be considered separately. The ‘energy efficiency first’ principle must not overstretch the energy efficiency targets in order to achieve the climate objectives.

The 2030 energy efficiency (EE) objective was set at 32.5% based on a GHG emissions reduction target of 80-95% by 2050. Consequently, in order to reach carbon neutrality by 2050, the 2030 EE objective should be increased accordingly. Iberdrola strongly supports the proposal to increase this value to 36%.

The FGW is committed to ensuring that the efficient use of energy is of the utmost importance with the increasing share of renewable energy sources. However, energy efficiency should not only be seen as an absolute savings target, but should also take into account, for example, the increased need for flexibility due to an increasing share of renewable energy.

IBERDROLA welcomes the “Fit for 55 Package” The Green Deal though the “Fit for 55 Package” offers a unique opportunity to set a proper regulatory framework that boosts momentum on the most efficient renewable alternatives to enable decarbonisation and the achievement of EU climate objectives.

Iberdrola shares with the Commission the views that energy taxation should be a tool for climate policy and preserving the internal EU market requires harmonised energy tax framework across the MSs as one of the keystones of the Green Deal to achieve climate neutrality in the EU by 2050. Decarbonisation is a must for the whole society involving all economic sectors.

The Austrian gas and district heating industry supports the objective of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and sees the period up to 2030 as an important intermediate step. In this context, the EU Energy Taxation Directive (ETD) can be an effective, market-based instrument to give appropriate price signals to energy consumers and thus achieve a targeted change in consumption patterns in line with climate…

Electrification is the most effective, efficient and sustainable way to decarbonise the transport sector, achieve EU’s long-term climate objectives and reduce air pollution. The electric vehicle (EV) is the real, competitive and mature alternative to decarbonise road transport at least cost, contributing at the same time to ALL the energy and climate objectives: renewable, energy efficient (2-3 times more efficient…

The recent publication of the 2030 Climate Plan by the European Commission increased the overall GHG emissions reduction target for 2030 from -40% up to -55% (vs 1990 level). The long-term reduction goal for 2050 remains unchanged, but the new plan asks for an acceleration across multiple sectors in the next decade.

The Austrian gas industry has been making a significant contribution to methane emission reduction for decades. In principle, a uniform "monitoring and reporting" system is positively recognized. However, it must be ensured that no blanket measures are taken, e.g. a general reduction of methane emissions by a fixed percentage without taking the initial situation into account.
