The results show that there is high potential for energy savings and improvements - in private households as well as in the industrial sector. This is mainly due to outdated technologies and insufficient building insulation. However, there is often insufficient information on and awareness of a more efficient use of energy.
Moreover, energy-efficient technologies are either not available or not established yet on the market. However, there is a general interest in energy related issues which is mainly motivated by rising energy prices and high energy imports resulting in current account deficits.
