The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications (MKM) is responsible for collecting info about savings and calculating savings. Implementers of measure (other government agencies) collect or measure information and control this information and share info to MKM who can then calculate final savings and report to the Commission. Every measure has a different approach on how to calculate or measure savings. The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications is mostly responsible for the implementation of calculation methods.

There is not an energy poverty plan, but there are different measures to decrease energy poverty. Energy poverty risk is related to relative poverty which has a target of its own to decrease it from 21,6 % in 2014 to 15 % in 2023 which also helps to decrease energy poverty risk.

NECP has pointed out that there are at least 21 thousand energy-poor people in Estonia and we hope to decrease it every year.
