European consumers could benefit from a package of measures to help shield them from the storm of rising energy prices proposed today by the European Commission. Now it’s up to EU countries to implement them as quickly as possible.

Consumers are set to benefit directly from a series of EU measures presented today by the European Commission to fight climate change. The proposals are part of the EU’s ‘Fit for 55 Package,’ the first major milestone in the delivery of the EU’s Green Deal.

The European Commission announced its Renovation Wave strategy today to rapidly increase the rate of renovation and energy efficiency of Europe’s buildings. Part of the Green Deal and the EU’s recovery efforts, it is a triple win: for consumers, for the environment and for the EU economy.

Today, the European Commission will present its European Green Deal – the EU’s plans to take action against climate change. The European Consumer Organisation (BEUC) strongly believes that policies to fight climate change must reflect the reality of consumers’ everyday lives as a starting point.
