- Webinar & E-Learning 23 June 2021 Policies and investment on energy efficient lighting: models for success (Webinar) – 22.06.2021 Lighting, appliances and equipment account for more than 50% of total global electricity demand which is expected to more than double by 2050 in developing countries. However, energy-efficient lighting, appliances and equipment can save energy, emissions and in all global regions more than $60 Billion annually. Right energy efficiency policies can represent 40% of the emissions reductions to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement. However, this potential is not being grasped and investment in…
