Notes that energy reporting obligations as part of a framework are essential to evaluate the progress and implementation of existing energy efficiency legislation; regrets, however, the excessive energy reporting obligations imposed, also by gold-plating by Member States, on businesses, energy producers, consumers and public authorities, which limit the potential for growth and innovation; stresses that reporting duties should wherever possible be simplified in order to reduce administrative burdens and costs; criticises the fact that data obtained in reporting are often not comparable across the EU due to different breakdowns, methodologies and standards; calls on the Commission to reduce, including through digital solutions, the admin ...[+++]istrative burden related to reporting obligations and to establish more guidelines on data comparability for better data evaluation; calls for aligning energy demand projections in line with cost-effective saving potential in key sectors, and believes that cutting red tape will speed up the implementation of energy efficiency measures; notes that applying the ‘energy efficiency first’ principle requires reviewing energy planning and reporting and improving policy coherence in order to ensure their mutual reinforcement, recognising that saving energy is Europe’s first and most secure source of energy; notes that energy efficiency can be the best energy ‘source’ investment, improving affordability of energy, driving down the need for additional and costly supply-side infrastructure and helping tackle climate change.

15. Maintains that energy saving and energy efficiency are fast and cost-effective routes to addressing issues such as energy security, external dependence, high prices, unemployment and environmental concerns; underlines the potential for both energy saving and energy efficiency, in particular in specific sectors such as buildings and transport; points out the role of district heating and cooling in managing energy demand; highlights the fact that, according to the International Energy Agency, energy efficiency is the world’s ‘first fuel’ by virtue of it having the lowest cost and of its availability and sustainability; emphasises t ...[+++]he need for EU and national policies to promote investments in energy efficiency and demand­-side solutions, as these will bring significant long-term gains for European security of supply; calls on the Commission, therefore, to set clear targets for the renovation of building stock across the EU, which will also lead to new jobs and rejuvenate the EU economy;

This is why efforts must now focus on improving end-use energy efficiency and controlling energy demand.

46. Recognises that the financial crisis has made it more difficult to attract the required investment to finance the transformation of the energy system; highlights the new challenges, such as the need for flexible back-up and balancing resources in the power system (e.g. flexible generation, robust transmission network, storage, demand management, microgeneration and interconnection) to help accommodate the expected increase in variable power generation from renewable sources; emphasises the importance of infrastructure at distribution levels and the important role that proactive consumers and distribution system operators (DSOs) pla ...[+++]y during the integration into the system of decentralised energy products and demand-side efficiency measures; stresses the need for a proper assessment of the capacity available in Europe, and of the need for sufficient interconnections, and for flexible and balancing back-up capacity, to match supply with demand, thus ensuring security of electricity and gas supply; points out that granting higher priority to demand-side management and demand-side energy generation would considerably strengthen the integration of decentralised energy sources and advance the achievement of overall energy policy objectives;
