Jacob Huber, an energy analyst at the Energy Delta Institute, recently wrote an analysis piece for the European Energy Review on the European Union’s draft Energy Efficiency Directive. This article discusses what he perceives to be five different shortcomings in the Directive, and proposes possible solutions.
