Maryland Energy Efficiency Obligation
In 2008, the government of Maryland introduced an energy efficiency obligation for all sectors except transport, covering electricity and gas. Obligated parties include investor-owned electricity and natural gas utilities. The obligation seeks to achieve post-2015 2% savings of the utilities weather normalised gross retail sales in order to achieve 792 GWh of energy savings per year. Eligible energy efficiency measures can be applied to appliances; HVAC; lighting; building fabric; CHP; smart meters; and new buildings. Each utility directs its own primary evaluation and verification activities through its EM&V Contractor, with an independent evaluator providing independent analysis…

Regulations on the efficient use of energy in buildings
The energy building code establishes technical requirements for constructing nearly zero-energy buildings, focusing on the thermal envelope, technical building systems, renewable energy sources, and e-mobility infrastructure. It sets energy efficiency indicators, including primary energy needs and renewable energy ratios, and mandates documentation like technical reports and energy performance certificates. Certain buildings, such as temporary structures, are exempt from these requirements.

Energy Efficiency and Endogenous Energies (E4) Programme
The former E4 Programme (Energy Efficiency and Endogenous Energies) launched in 2001, established goals concerning the exploitation of renewable energy sources (RES) for power (and thermal) generation, which were consistent with the EU Directive on renewable electricity (2001/77/CE), under which Portugal has to aim to deliver 39 % (including large hydro) of its gross electricity consumption by 2010. The current energy policy framework is in line with the E4 Programme and, for some RES, the Portuguese government has set even more ambitious targets for 2010, namely: wind power: 3 750 MW (currently ~300 MW) photovoltaics: 150 MWp (currently ~2…

Energy Efficiency Obligation
In 2014, Malta introduced energy efficiency obligations targeting energy savings between 2014 to 2020 of 111.6 GWh in final energy. This policy covers residential gas and electricity. Eligible energy efficiency measures include installing smart meters and rising block tariffs. Monitoring and verification appears to be top-down evaluations of energy consumption before and after measures. The obligated party is Enemalta Corporation which is the monopoly distributor. Penalties can be up to EUR 100 000 total or EUR 600 for each day of non-compliance.Malta's National Energy and Climate Plan for 2021-2030 does not make use of…
