Division 1 Introduction

This template specifies the information that Member States are required to provide in their National Energy Efficiency Plans (NEEAPs) on measures adopted or planned to be adopted to implement the main elements of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED, 2012/27/EU), as set out in Article 24(2) of the Directive and its Annex XIV. Therefore, where the template indicates mandatory reporting elements, it does not refer to measures that have not been adopted and are not planned by the Member States. The template is provided to the Member States as guidance to the NEEAPs as specified in EED Article 24(2) second paragraph.

Where the text of the template refers to information to be provided in the first and/or second NEEAP this reflects the wording of the EED, and where there is no such reference the information is to be provided in the first and all subsequent NEEAPs.

This template is complemented by Guidance on NEEAPs [references to be inserted of the linked Commission Staff Working Paper which provides further advice].
