The recently revised Energy Efficiency Directive (EED, (EU)2023/1791), which was officially released last year, requires all Member States to achieve increased annual savings of 1.3% in 2024 and 2025, rising to 1.5% for 2026 and 2027, and reaching 1.9% from 2028 onwards. These escalating targets necessitate Member States to adjust their current energy efficiency strategies or introduce new measures to meet the higher goals. This ambitious agenda poses new challenges for national policymakers and other stakeholders in the energy efficiency sector.
This report presents a selection of tools, guidelines, and methodologies, identified through extensive desk-based research, that can support different types of stakeholders in the effective delivery of energy savings. With particular focus on the most critical needs, identified through a needs assessment survey carried out in the initial phase of the project, appropriate resources are collected and key gap areas where additional material is needed are pinpointed. The report is organised around the key stages of the policy cycle: policy design and implementation, monitoring and verification, and policy evaluation.
In addition to the report, a complementary Excel-based tool named “ENSMOV Plus Compendium of Resources” was created following a similar methodology. This tool can be used either in conjunction with the report or as a standalone source of information. It offers an extended and comprehensive list of resources including those featured in the report, as well as additional ones that were discovered during our research and others that were identified during the project’s predecessor H2020 ENSMOV project.
By providing a central reference point, this report, together with the accompanying Excel file serve as valuable assets for enhancing the effective and efficient design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of energy policies across Member States, ultimately contributing to the goals of the EED and broader climate objectives.

(Note: the tool was tested in the Excel for Microsoft Office 365 and works well in all newer versions. However, some text in graphs might disappear – in that case, simply adjust the zoom.)
