"The implementation of the energy and climate change package assumes significant investments in measures aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
Buildings are responsible for 40% of the consumption of primary energy. Increasing buildings’ energy efficiency helps reduce the consumption of primary energy and the level of carbon dioxide emissions.
Next year, the Commission along with Member States, will evaluate, in the middle of the 2007-2013 period, the operational programmes and the degree of absorption of structural funds. I call on Member States to review the method for using structural funds, giving priority to energy efficiency in buildings and urban mobility for the 2010-2013 period.
I urge the European Commission and Member States to increase from 3% to 15% the amount allocated to each Member State from the ERDF for costs linked to boosting energy efficiency in buildings and using renewable energy. This increase will offer Member States greater flexibility in using the structural funds, thereby speeding up their absorption, especially during the current economic crisis."@en1
