Energinio efektyvumo teisinis reguliavimas ir taikymo ypatumai

LTStraipsnyje analizuojamos energinio vartojimo efektyvumo teisinio reguliavimo normos ir iš jų kylančios nacionalinės iniciatyvos, gilinamasi į šių normų įgyvendinimo ginčijamus ir diskutuojamus Lietuvoje klausimus, išskiriant teisinio reguliavimo problematiką, susijusią su viešųjų pastatų energiniu efektyvumu, svarstomi galimi atsakymai remiantis kitų valstybių teisėkūros ir regioninės praktikos pavyzdžiais. Pateikiamos Europos Bendrijos energijos efektyvumo direktyvų ir susijusių su jų įgyvendinimu ataskaitų ir komunikatų pagrindinės nuostatos, galiojančios visoms šalims narėms. Atliekama šių direktyvų nuostatų įgyvendinimo Lietuvoje problematikos analizė. Aiškinamasi viešųjų pastatų kaip pagrindinės realiai įgyvendinamos energinio efektyvumo direktyvų siekių užtikrinimo alternatyvos teisinio reguliavimo mechanizmai.

ENDespite the started "Energy 2020 strategy" in 2010 and the European Commission statement that "Energy efficiency is the most cost effective way to reduce emissions, improve energy security and competitiveness, make energy consumption more affordable for consumers as well as create employment, including in export industries" proposed year later, the a Directive on energy efficiency (EED), which entered into forced on 4 December 2012, in Lithuania is still under development and harmonization with Lithuanian law system. This article presents author opinion of national stakeholders’ at Member States’ level, gathered during analysis and practical experience in the sector. The article is a first step to analyse the overall legal and political context of energy policy of the EU implementation in Lithuania, as well as of the Energy Efficiency Directive and its implementation in the country in particular. Key findings and recommendations presents as a main elements of the analysis provided in five main parts starting from the issues with a wide range of analysis of the EED and by proposing for energy efficiency implementation provisions, procedures, conditions in Lithuania. The article based on a legal and political basis for energy policy and energy efficiency in the EU and Lithuania before and after the Energy Efficiency Directive entered into force. Directive 2012/27/EU establishes a common framework of measures for the promotion. Entered into force Directive of energy efficiency within the European Union in order to ensure the EU 2020 20 per cent headline target on energy efficiency declared as a aim to achieved, and to pave the way for further energy efficiency improvements beyond that date.It also laid down rules designed to remove barriers in the energy market and overcome market failures that impede efficiency in the supply and use of energy, and provides for the establishment of indicative national energy efficiency targets for 2020. The requirements laid down in the EED were the minimum requirements for Member States. However, Lithuania was not and is not prepared for even minimum reducing energy consumption requirements. To achieve this, each Member State were obligated to set an indicative national energy efficiency targets, based on either primary or final energy consumption, primary or final energy savings, or energy intensity. Moreover, according this article analysis, the author states that no one of requirements were not correctly implemented or implemented by the full scope.
