The campaign's report “Energy Savings in Practice” published in November 2010, shows that huge savings can be made in households by chosing efficient appliances. Against this potential, the first measures adopted under the EU Ecodesign policy are not always ambitious enough. A summary of the report is available, and the full report can be downloaded here.
