BRUSSELS – The European Alliance to Save Energy (EU-ASE) announced today that the French group SAINT-GOBAIN has joined the ten current industrial members of the Alliance.
“We welcome SAINT-GOBAIN, and we look forward to working with them” said Harry Verhaar, Chairman of the EU-ASE Board and Head of Global Public & Government Affairs at Philips Lighting. “SAINT-GOBAIN is a major industrial player and will strengthen our collective business voice and efforts to showcase energy efficiency as a solid business opportunity for Europe. Businesses need a clear and well-implemented regulatory framework to invest in Europe. The forthcoming review of major European Directives such as the EED and the EPBD is an opportunity to move in this direction.”
