Sweden's Recovery Plan / energy efficiency of apartment buildings
This is the third component of the green recovery measures of Sweden's recovery and resilience plan. According to current proposals to the regulation, support is given to apartment buildings with an energy performance which, expressed as a primary energy figure, exceeds 100 kWh / m2, and year and for energy efficiency measures that improve the overall building's energy performance by at least 20 percent. The estimate of the target is based on the assumption of an annual renovation rate of three percent. Sweden’s allocation in the form of grants from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) amounts to…

Law 21305 on Energy Efficiency
…average energy performance targets. Compliance or non-compliance with the standard is measured with respect to the average (performance and weight) of sales of a brand or brand/importer. As an incentive to increase the supply of electric vehicles, the possibility of counting the performance of each electric or hybrid vehicle with external electric recharging up to three times in the calculation of this average is included. Light-duty vehicles are set to increase the fuel economy per liter of gasoline equivalent (lge) from a baseline in 2020 of 14.9 km/lge to 18.8 km/lge from 2024…
