The Commission considers that the measures in question should cover buildings, transport and industry, and should be designed: - to provide consumers with information * through the energy certification of buildings to inform prospective buyers, and subsequently prospective tenants, about the energy efficiency of the buildings in question * through energy audits in businesses to identify the improvements that can be made to energy installations and energy management - to encourage consumers to behave more responsibly * through the billing of heating, air-conditioning and hot-water costs on the basis of actual consumption rather than on a ...[+++]flat-rate basis (according to surface area or a share of the property) * through regular inspections of equipment which, because of their large numbers, have a significant effect on the energy balance: boilers and vehicles - to take the life expectancy of new buildings into account in relation to their thermal insulation - streamline public-sector authorization procedures for investments which can be financed by the energy savings they generate, i.e. third-party financing.
