This high-level policy conference will bring together key industry players and policymakers to discuss how to decarbonise Europe’s economy in a fast and cost-effective way.

Increasing the level of energy savings across Europe is crucial to deliver the clean energy transition. It is even more urgent in the current context of rising energy prices and to phase out as quickly as possible the EU's reliance on Russian fossil fuels.

According to the International Energy Agency’s Net Zero by 2050 report, achieving climate neutrality by 2050 requires pushing the average rate of energy efficiency improvements in the period 2020-2030 to about three times the average of the last two decades. This can be done through massively scaling up energy-efficient solutions for buildings, vehicles, home appliances and industry. Energy-efficient solutions which are all available today.

In this context, the European Alliance to Save Energy (EU-ASE) has felt the need to launch a new forum to discuss the future of energy and how to decarbonise Europe’s economy through the lenses of energy efficiency, innovation, and long-term sustainability: the European Energy Efficiency Day.

Through six sessions throughout the day, the conference will bring together key EU policymakers, leading industry players, as well as experts from the energy and environment community to explore cost-efficient and socially fair decarbonisation paths to address the climate crisis and deliver the European Green Deal.

The event will take place on 13 October 2022 (online). Register now
