The key objective of EEPLIANT3 Concerted Action is to help deliver the intended economic and environment benefits of the Energy Labelling and Ecodesign Directives by increasing the rates of compliance with them. This will be achieved through coordinating the monitoring, verification and enforcement activities of 24 Market Surveillance Authorities and 5 other organisations accross the EU Single Market and Turkey.

The EEPLIANT3 Concerted Action will last for a period of 54 months starting with June 2019. During this time, PROSAFE is organising a large amount of work package meetings, trainings and workshops.

EEPLIANT3 is a Concerted Action funded by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 framework. PROSAFE is a lead coordinator with the Austrian Energy Agency and vores bureau ensuring the coordination of several Work Packages. Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market.
