The Institute for Environmental Policy (IEP) was today in the Commission for Productive Activities, Trade and Environment for a hearing with stakeholders session for the Energy Efficiency draft law.
The overall approach of the participating organizations and institutes was positive suggesting practical changes. IEP, underlined the necessity to cut out unnecessary bureaucracy and to approve the law as soon as possible since it touches the end consumers. IEP suggested also that young professionals have a up to date information on energy efficiency as well have a lot of interest in the field of the energy business.
One of the main points suggested by Erjon Tase, Academy of Political Studies, was to establish several criteria for public procurement / tenders for equipment and services considering energy efficiency e.g economic class equipment procured by state authorities.
In order to clarify the technical concepts of energy efficiency of the final consumer, IEP distributed its publications regarding this field which was welcomed by the legislative authority and expressed the possibility of cooperation in the future.
