This report delves into the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping the future of the steel industry as the global transition to a low-carbon economy accelerates.
The Breakthrough Agenda Report 2023 is an annual collaboration between the International Energy Agency (IEA), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and the United Nations Climate Change High-Level Champions. It takes stock of emissions reductions in key energy subsectors and focuses on supporting stronger international collaboration to drive faster reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions.
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 slide desk provides an overview of energy efficiency standards in Southern and East Africa and presents (draft) harmonized standards for lighting, refrigerators and air conditioners.
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 training platform offers two modules which aim to build the capacity of relevant stakeholders to kick-start markets for efficient lighting and appliances in East and Southern Africa. Module 1 introduces markets for efficient lighting and appliances, and Module 2 focuses on lighting.
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.
Water infrastructure is among the biggest users of electricity in many municipalities. This policy brief makes recommendations to government (national, provincial and local) for cleaner energy (renewable energy and energy efficiency) policies related to municipal waterworks and their operations.
This step-by-step guide suggests the key elements that municipal officials need to consider to implement clean energy/energy efficiency projects in waterworks or other municipal operations. It provides information on developing strategies, formulating plans, providing adequate capacity and mobilising resources for successful origination and implementation of a project.
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.
