Since 2015 it has been a requirement that all European enterprises qualifying as non-SMEs (small and medium sized enterprises) carry out an audit of their energy consumption. Even though this obligation arises from the EU Energy Efficiency Directive 2012, the range of the concerned enterprises, the obligations within groups, the scope of the audit and the potential sanctions for non-compliance differ significantly across European Union Member States.
