This web page highlights the role of buildings in the energy transition (heating, cooling, lighting, etc), and presents data and recommendations.
This study offers insights on how well-designed carbon pricing instruments can play a role in accelerating efforts toward energy transition and decarbonization.
This paper explains how minimum energy performance standards for buildings can be implemented effectively while remaining socially just, using a differentiated approach that carefully follows a series of design principles.
This guidance note outlines how cities can tap into a wide array of proven technologies, policies, and financing mechanisms to improve energy efficiency and capture cost-effective energy savings in buildings.
This guidebook helps practitioners adopt a holistic approach to sustainable neighbourhood design, integrating the design of efficient energy, water, wastewater and solid waste systems, and low energy mobility.
This is a syllabus for a course to train engineers to conduct energy audits. It contains an overview of lesson topics, reading materials, activities, learning objectives and more. It was developed for Nigerian educational institutions.
This is the slide deck for the first module of an online course about energy audits for small- and medium-sized enterprises.
Designing for energy efficiency reduces the overall demand for resources to generate energy. This checklist will help to identify key design issues that will demonstrate whether the proposed design will be energy efficient.
This is the slide deck for the second module of an online course about energy audits for small- and medium-sized enterprises.
This report helps policymakers develop building codes and regulations that promote the construction of green buildings.
