The revised Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) – Directive (EU) 2023/1791 – sets out the framework and obligations designed to help the European Union achieve ambitious energy-saving targets. Among other things, the EED aims to reduce final energy consumption in the EU by 11.7% by 2030 compared to reference projections. It replaces the previous Directive 2012/27/EU and entered into force on 10 October 2023. Member States are required to transpose its key provisions into national law – the deadline for transposition was 11 October 2025.
