NATIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE UNION’S ENERGY EFFCIENCY TARGETS IN 2030 IN FINAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND/OR PRIMARY ENERGY CONSUMPTION 1. The level of national contributions is calculated on the basis of the indicative formula: Where CEU is a correction factor, Target is the level of national-specific ambition and FECB2030 PECB2030 is the 2020 EU Reference Scenario used as a baseline for 2030.

2. The following indicative formula represents the objective criteria reflecting the factors listed in Article 4(3), points (d)(i) to (iv), each used for defining the level of national-specific ambition in % (Target) and having the same weight in the formula (0,25):

(a) early action dependent contribution (‘Fearly-action’);

(b) GDP-per-capita dependent contribution (‘Fwealth’);

(c) energy intensity dependent contribution (‘Fintensity’);

(d) cost-effective energy savings potential contribution (‘Fpotential’).

3. Fearly-action shall be calculated for each Member State as the product of its amount of energy savings and the improvement in the energy intensity that each Member State achieved. The amount of energy savings for each Member State shall be calculated on the basis of the reduction of energy consumption (in toe) to the Union’s reduction of energy consumption between the three-year average for the period 2007-2009 and the three-year average for the period 2017-2019. The improvement in the energy intensity for each Member State shall be calculated on the basis of the reduction of energy intensity (in toe/EUR) to the Union’s reduction of energy intensity between the three-year average for the period 2007-2009 and the three-year average for the period 2017-2019.

4. Fwealth shall be calculated for each Member State on the basis of its three-year average Eurostat's real GDP per capita index to the Union’s three-year average over the 2017-2019 period, expressed in Purchasing power parities (PPPs).

5. Fintensity shall be calculated for each Member State on the basis of its three-year average final energy intensity (FEC or PEC per real GDP in PPPs) index to the Union’s three-year average over 2017-2019 period.

6. Fpotential shall be calculated for each Member State on the basis of the final or primary energy savings under the PRIMES MIX 55 % scenario for 2030. The savings are expressed in relation to 2020 EU Reference Scenario projections for 2030.

7. For each criteria provided in point 2(a) to (d), a lower and upper limit shall be applied. The level of ambition for factors Fwealth Fintensity and Fpotential shall be capped at 50 % and 150 % of the Union average level of ambition under a given factor. The level of ambition for factor Fearly-action shall be capped at 50 % and 100 % of the Union average level of ambition.

8. The source of the input data used to calculate the factors is Eurostat unless stated otherwise.

9. Ftotal shall be calculated as the weighted sum of all four factors (Fearly-action. Fwealth Fintensity and Fpotential). The target shall be then calculated as the product of the total factor Ftotal and the Union target.

10. The Commission shall calculate a primary and final energy correction factor CEU, which shall be applied to adjust the sum of the formula results for all national contributions to the respective Union targets in 2030. The factor CEU is identical for all Member States.
