The project Energy-Efficiency-Watch 2 (EEW2), running from September 2010 until August 2013, aims to facilitate the implementation of the Energy Services Directive.

There are three main elements of the project:

• activation and consultation of core networks (national and European Parliamentarians, civil servants, regional and local networks, mayors, experts, associations, industry etc.),
• building up knowledge via surveys, questionnaires and policy screening and
• dissemination activities (i.e. briefings, conferences, brochures).

The first National Energy Efficiency Action Plans (NEEAPs), as delivered by the EU Member States in 2007, lie in the very heart of the project. EEW2 conducts a survey on the implementation status of the first round of NEEAPs in the EU Member States. As Member States were required to deliver the second NEEAPs in June 2011, the project also screens the new NEEAPs. Besides, there are up to 20 events planned in the project with the purpose to exchange good practices, raise awareness and encourage discussion among stakeholders, networks, industry, policy-makers and experts. 

The expected outcome are European and national energy efficiency policies of better quality and an experience exchange with the aim of filling implementation gaps.
