- Webinar & E-Learning 11 December 2018 Global Growth Potential of Energy Efficient Data Centres (Webinar) - 11.12.2018 Data centres are among the most complex and energy-demanding facilities in the world. Currently, the world's data centres consumed 3% of global electricity with a growth project to 20% by 2025. These power hungry data centres are now responsible for 2% of global CO2 emissions, a similar share of the entire aviation industry. This value potentially will escalate to 14% by 2040. The economic and environmental ramifications of continued data centre growth provide the rationale for exploring more…
- Webinar & E-Learning 22 November 2018 Overcoming Barriers to Investing in Energy Efficiency (Webinar) - 04.12.2018 The presenters provide their views on the ways to improve the investment climate for energy efficiency and to find policy solutions and incentive schemes to make energy efficiency projects viable. They talk of the role of private sector and financial institutions in implementing energy efficiency measures and projects and what governments can do to facilitate this. The basis for this conversation is the joint UNECE/Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency publication Overcoming Barriers to…
- Webinar & E-Learning 3 October 2018 Blockchain and sustainable energy in development and cooperation (Webinar) - 16.10.2018 The webinar will showcase the use of blockchain technologies in development and cooperation projects with a focus on sustainable energy (SDG#7). Speakers will present how alternative finance can leverage public-private partnerships on renewable energy projects in Moldova, how a community is empowered through peer-to-peer energy trading in Thailand, and how blockchain-based applications can bring societal benefits and support the achievement of SDG#7.
- Webinar & E-Learning 2 October 2018 Energy Efficiency Policies and the Arab Future Energy Index (Webinar) - 11.10.2018 Arab countries are putting in place numerous energy efficiency measures in all sectors to save energy, reduce emissions and fulfil their climate goals. The case of Tunisia strikes to be progressive due to its structure and projects that support energy efficiency in the country. During the weminar three experts are speaking on the following topics, with a focus on the Tunisian energy market: Energy efficiency trends and challenges in the Arab region (AFEX 2017) Energy efficiency policy…
- Webinar & E-Learning 23 August 2018 Energy Efficiency and the Cooling Imperative: Tapping the synergies with the HFC Refrigerant Phasedown under the Kigali Amendment (Webinar) - 05.09.2018 The IEA estimates that by 2050 energy demand from space cooling will triple. Entering into force in 2019, the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol seeks to reduce the global warming impacts of air conditioners and refrigerators through reducing the use of refrigerants with strong global warming effects. Such a shift in refrigerant offers a great opportunity for energy efficiency improvements during appliance re-engineering. In this webinar, the World Wide Fund for Nature, the …
- Tools 14 August 2018 Support Public Authorities for Implementing Energy Efficiency Policies (PUBLEnEf) PUBLEnEf project aims to assist European Union Member States in implementing effective and efficient sustainable energy policies (with the focus on energy efficiency) and empower them to make use of the best practices and policy processes implemented in other Member States at the national, regional and/or local level.PUBLEnEf addresses the topic Horizon 2020 EE7-2015 on “Enhancing the capacity of public authorities to plan and implement sustainable energy policies and measures”…
- Webinar & E-Learning 20 July 2018 Sistemas urbanos de calefacción y refrigeración eficientes – Energía distrital en América del Sur (Webinar) - 01.08.2018 La actual situación energética en los países de la América del Sur necesita un cambio radical: aumentar el uso de fuentes de energía renovables y tener un uso más eficiente de la energía, también alineándose con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible 7, 8 y 13. Una de las soluciones más interesante (y necesaria) es el desarrollo de sistemas urbanos eficientes para calefacción y refrigeración, a través de proyectos de energía distrital.

- Webinar & E-Learning 6 July 2018 Efficient Mobility: Electrification in Maritime Transportation (Webinar) - 24.07.2018 Among the various transport modes, shipping is one of the most efficient cargo transport. Yet, the significant growth of seaborne trade increased the energy consumption of shipping, despite of the improvement in the energy efficiency of shipping engines. According to the International Maritime Association, global fuel shipping consumption increased from 291 to 298 million tonnes (+2.4%) from 2013 to 2015. Thus, the global shipping emissions amplified quantitatively. Check our webinar to know…
