The target for 2030 is currently set 32%. The text, which now has to be negotiated with Parliament and the Commission, requires countries to increase the contributions set out in the integrated national energy and climate plans (PNECs), which are due to be updated in 2023 and 2024.

With regard to strengthening long-term energy efficiency measures, the green light was given for the reduction of “at least 9% by 2030 compared to 2020″: the Commission had proposed an increase to 13%. The 9% target equates to a maximum total end consumption of 787 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) per year, a decrease of 36% compared to 2007 projections for 2030. Each country must determine this indicative national contributions, which the Commission will review and correct if the EU target is not met. The text, part of the package Suitable for 55will now be the subject of negotiations between the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament.
