Abstract
There is worldwide concern for the high consumption of energy from fossil fuels, the limited fossil fuel resources, the climate change and global warming and their possible long-term consequences and the population growth. Even more when energy is the main intermediate good necessary for economic growth and development in any country. This usually translates into better quality of life, and thereby, higher primary energy consumption in all sectors, transport, industry, services, household, etc. In this context, the European Union (EU) seeks to reach a balance between sustainable development, competitiveness and secure supply. The current EU energy policy is based on three interrelated pillars or basic goals: the promotion of energy efficiency, the application of greenhouse gas mitigation policies and the increase of share of energy from renewable energy sources. In this paper, a methodology for nonlinear distribution of dynamic targets is proposed and applied to EU energy policy goals.

Política energética de la Unión Europea para un desarrollo sostenible Propuesta de distribución no lineal de los objetivos energéticos 20-20-20 de la UE
It may be observed that all of the European Union (EU)-15 countries, with the exception of Portugal, Belgium and Finland, have lower reduction rates than the countries that have joined since 2004, because of their greater energy efficiency as a function of the Energy intensity (EI), according to the measurement and evaluation parameters set by EU energy policy
The results found in each country are different in each of the geographic aggregation scenarios (EU-27 and EU-15)
Summary
Política energética de la Unión Europea para un desarrollo sostenible Propuesta de distribución no lineal de los objetivos energéticos 20-20-20 de la UE. Se propone una metodología para la distribución no lineal de los objetivos dinámicos, y que es aplicada a los objetivos de la política energética. Politique energétique de l’Union Européenne pour le développement durable Proposition de distribution non-linéaire des objectifs énergétiques 20-20-20 de l’UE. Surtout quand l’énergie est le principal élément pour le développement et la croissance de tous les pays, ce qui aboutit généralement à une meilleure qualité de vie, et donc à une consommation plus élevée d’énergie primaire dans tous les secteurs: transport, industrie, services, domestiques, etc. Nous proposons une méthodologie pour la répartition non-linéaire des objectifs dynamiques, appliquée à des objectifs de politique énergétique
