National Action Plan on Energy Efficiency
…energy efficiency technologies and competitiveness. Energy efficiency projects can generate attractive returns on investment (in SMEs, for example, average yields on energy efficiency investments can amount to as much as 20-25 percent). Therefore NAPE aims at promoting the development of business models for energy saving (e.g. energy performance contracting). With the introduction of the Competitive Tendering Scheme for Energy Efficiency, Germany will spearhead a new approach for promoting close-to-market and cost-effective energy efficiency solution. Individual responsibility for energy efficiency: Measure -Understand -Take Action -Save. All stakeholders share the responsibility for achieving Germany national energy efficiency…
