This webinar will explore the crucial role of energy efficiency in the rapidly expanding data centre industry. With the increasing demand for data services, the need to improve the energy efficiency of data centres has never been more critical. The session will cover innovations in cooling technologies and sustainable practices to reduce the environmental impact of these facilities. Expert speakers […]

This webinar will focus on the critical role of energy efficiency within the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of key African countries. Speakers from Ghana, South Africa, Egypt, Kenya, and Mauritius will present their strategies for integrating energy efficiency into their NDCs to combat climate change. These discussions are essential for amplifying energy efficiency initiatives, exploring opportunities for policy alignment, and […]

El Webinar se va a hacer en Español A medida que los países revisan sus Contribuciones Nacionalmente Determinadas (NDC, por sus siglas en inglés) en el marco del Acuerdo de París, el rol de la eficiencia energética se vuelve cada vez más relevante. Las medidas de eficiencia energética pueden reducir significativamente las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, mejorar la seguridad […]

El Webinar se va a hacer en Español Una de las principales barreras con que se encuentra la aplicación de medidas de eficiencia energética en los distintos sectores es el acceso a financiamiento. Por un lado, en ciertos casos se requieren períodos de repago más largos que los esperados para ciertas inversiones debido a la presencia de subsidios a la energía; […]

El Webinar se va a hacer en Español Las edificaciones son responsables del 32% del consumo de energía mundial y un 25% de las emisiones de CO2. Edificios más eficientes pueden generar beneficios económicos, reducir el impacto ambiental, mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas y la productividad de las ciudades. La eficiencia energética en edificaciones no solo reducirá los […]

India’s per capita carbon emissions are low, about 1.8 tons, but the combined figure makes it the third largest emitter globally. The Energy Conservation Act in 2001 introduced energy service companies in the country to induce private capital into energy efficiency. This makes India one of the important markets for ESCO services, where ESCOs have been active for more than […]

The rising cooling demand is a pressing concern for energy planners in the GCC region, contributing to higher natural gas consumption in power generation and reducing the prospects for exports. District cooling is increasingly seen as an alternative to conventional cooling due to its lower energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions. The district cooling capacity has expanded exponentially in the […]

There are various ways in which Hydrogen can be produced, with corresponding differences in environmental impact. These differences are classified as Hydrogen Colours, though these do not equate to a clear difference in greenhouse emissions. Hence a plethora of related terms like “Renewable Hydrogen”, “Low-Carbon Hydrogen” and “Clean Hydrogen” are often used. It is therefore important to ask the following […]

Credit and loan officers in banks and other financial institutions are not energy efficiency specialists. The International Energy Efficiency Financing Protocol (IEEFP) has been developed to provide concepts and guidelines to help them assess financing opportunities for energy efficiency projects. It focuses on the key elements needed to evaluate and provide attractive loans to facility owners, ESCOs, and other potential […]

Although a nascent business model, today energy cooperatives and energy communities cover already a wide range of activities in renewable energies and energy efficiency in several countries. These are local and citizen-led initiatives that put in common investment means and democratic principles to implement the energy transition. Decentralized renewables and small-scale energy efficiency can quickly materialise and become a solution […]
