The Commission has presented a communication outlining actions to reduce energy costs and strengthen the role of consumers. The package is structured around four pillars: lowering bills, empowering consumers, combating energy poverty, and improving the implementation of EU legislation. The measures include greater regulatory flexibility, the development of energy communities, the deployment of efficient technologies, and enhanced transparency in the retail market. The initiative is part of the broader process of integrating the European energy market.

Attached is a summary brief on the initiative, in Italian, prepared by the Single Market Lab.
