The Commission's proposals on energy

On November 13, 2008 the European Commission presented a comprehensive set of rules designed to promote energy security in the EU, called "Second Strategic Energy Review - Securing our Energy Future." The Commission proposes a new strategy for solidarity between Member States about energy and a new policy to encourage investment in more efficient energy networks, which can distribute electricity with low carbon emissions.
The document examines the issues that Europe will face between 2020 and 2050.
A set of proposals is also presented, to promote energy saving in some key areas such as buildings, strengthening the legislation about it, and energy consuming products, giving greater importance to the certification of energy performance.
