Turning the Energy Efficiency Directive into a Positive Value Driver

The European Union is steadily moving toward a united energy front. In 2012, the EU created the Energy Efficiency Directive and set out to reach 20 percent energy efficiency within eight years. According to the European Commission, the executive body of the EU, this directive will require all EU countries to use energy more efficiently during all stages of the energy chain. This will include production to final consumption.

European companies have been aware of this directive for several years now, and many countries will begin enforcing the rule beginning this December. Executives who see the business value or operational benefits of increasing efficiency, particularly within the automotive industry, stand to benefit the most from complying and implementing applicable solutions.
