Page1 / 17
 
DG Enterprise and Industry of the European Commission has requested the Centre for Strategy and Evaluation Services and our partners Oxford Research to carry out an independent evaluation of the Ecodesign Directive (2009/125/EC).

The evaluation is expected to assess the effectiveness and utility of the Directive, identify existing barriers and obstacles and provide recommendations to contribute to a review and, if appropriate, revision of the Directive. It will also examine the appropriateness of extending the scope of the Directive beyond energy related products.
The success of the evaluation is dependent upon the information and feedback that we receive from all actors involved, including the stakeholders representing industry, consumers and environmental groups.

Any information provided will be considered confidential. The results presented to the European Commission will be aggregated and individual enterprises will not be identifiable. CSES aims to comply with the Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC), as implemented in the UK where we are based, under the Data Protection Act 1998. We also comply with EC Regulation No 45/2001 concerning the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by EU institutions.

However, for the purposes of the study we will need to make reference to the sources of data presented related to general – not firm specific - developments in the market. Please indicate in the relevant question whether the source should be treated as confidential wherever applicable.

The deadline of the survey is May 3rd..
