8TH TRIPLE-A BRIEFING NOTE

Title: Energy Efficiency Policy in the Czech Republic

Date: March 2022

Description: Energy savings are an integral part of the national energy policy in the Czech Republic in accordance with EU climate action and energy policy objectives and legislation. There are numerous public support schemes channelling significant funds in subsidies and other supportive measures that may promote energy efficiency investments. However, despite the coordinated effort by numerous ministries and other state institutions, the goals set by Articles. 5 and 7 of the Energy Efficiency Directive have not been met yet. Therefore, increasing effectiveness of public support and facilitating financing and implementation of energy efficiency projects presents an opportunity to be sought after.
