The average lifespan of a building is 50 years, so the design of buildings that are constructed now will have an effect on energy consumption in our cities until well into the 2070s. This article presents the most effective options for cities to set mandatory minimum energy performance standards for buildings, to prevent locking in […]
This brochure provides step-by-step instructions for walk-through energy audits, focusing on heating, lighting, and bills and meter readings in offices and factories or warehouses.
This video by UNIDO’s Industrial Decarbonization Accelerator provides a quick introduction to the benefits of energy management systems, as well as tips on how to implement one.
This report by the Global Energy Transitions Commission presents a complete picture of global building sector emissions and describes pathways to decarbonisation for both existing buildings and new construction.
This web page highlights the role of buildings in the energy transition (heating, cooling, lighting, etc), and presents data and recommendations.
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 study examines the integration of AI into energy management processes in industrial facilities and the advantages it provides.
This module aims to help policymakers and regulators understand the potential benefits of and opportunities for improving the efficiency of buildings and give them a background on the key issues to be addressed when developing suitable policies and a framework for implementation.
The purpose of this Guide is to help organizations of all sizes, and in particular SMEs, to improve their energy performance in a logical, controlled and systematic way, thereby saving energy and reducing costs.
This blog article provides a quick introduction to energy management systems.
