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.
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 guide suggests tools cities can deploy to encourage the implementation of building energy efficiency and renewable energy measures by the private sector and citizens.
This policy brief assesses a selection of green building practices, programmes, and regulatory frameworks from Latin American countries including Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Mexico and Peru.
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.
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 report helps policymakers develop building codes and regulations that promote the construction of green buildings.
This technical note introduces a simplified path to sustainable design in seven steps: site analysis, site plan, building design, energy, water, solid waste and agriculture.
This database provides different dashboards presenting data on the latest investment and operational trends in clean cooking, including carbon market data and customer perceptions of clean cooking companies’ products and services.
This page presents the Principles for Responsible Carbon Finance in Clean Cooking, developed by the CCA.
