• Publication 8 November 2022 Regulatory Barriers for Energy Service Companies. Perspectives Based on Feedback from National ESCO Associations As the climate change agenda tightens, we can no longer afford to leave the immense emissions reduction opportunities in energy efficiency untouched. But it requires professionalism. The required expertise rests with the ESCOs, and activating the energy efficiency expertise should be a first choice for climate policy developers. Over the months of April to November 2021, the Global ESCO Network has conducted a series of interviews with…
• Publication 8 November 2022 Perspectives_2020_Incorporating energy service companies in NDCs This year’s edition of Perspectives, issued by the Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency (C2E2), is devoted to the opportunities presented by the Energy Service Company (ESCO). In particular, it focuses on the potential role of ESCOs in developing ambitious Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) as part of the Paris Agreement, thus not only under- pinning the energy efficiency agenda itself, but also creating a perspective from which to influence entire NDCs, thus integrating the…
• Podcast 26 July 2022 Energy Efficiency Financing Problem: There is a fundamental disconnect between the finance community and energy efficiency. The Mission Efficiency Financing Charette was convened to undo this disconnect. The charette brought together two groups: the world’s finance community (private sector, development banks, philanthropic organisations, climate finance facilities, etc.) and the projects and initiatives. Key message: To address current gaps and facilitate commitments to work together to redefine investing in energy…
• Webinar & E-Learning 14 October 2021 Closing the Energy Efficiency Knowledge Gaps (Webinar) – 24.09.2021 Energy efficiency – the low hanging fruit of climate action – needs to be improved, but it requires the right mix of skills and knowledge Improving energy efficiency is widely recognised as a key element and a low hanging fruit in addressing climate change while at the same time contributing to sustainable development. Specifically, energy management represents a significant opportunity for building, transport, industrial-commercial, and other sectors to reduce their energy use while…
• Podcast 23 August 2021 Sustainable ICT development and the role of ITU - DigiGreen EP.1 Problem: Information and communication technologies (ICTs) could help address climate concerns and enable the much-needed shift toward a circular economy (CE). But ICTs also contribute to global carbon emissions and generate waste in their production, usage and eventual obsolescence. What type of collaborations do we need to address sustainable ICT development? Key message: Actions on climate change and digitalization should influence each other at the strategic level. Digitalization should…
• Webinar & E-Learning 20 July 2021 Incorporating ESCOs in Nationally Determined Contributions (Webinar) - 07.07.2021 Since the global climate change agenda first dawned, energy efficiency has held out the promise of the most cost-efficient options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It practice, it has delivered poorly on that promise, as recorded evidence from practically all frameworks emerging from the climate change negotiations have shown. Why is that - and can The Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) under the Paris Agreement finally change the outlooks? Frauke Röser, founding partner of New…
• Webinar & E-Learning 7 July 2020 Examining Data Management in the Face of Climate Change (Presentation) Johanna, Kristine and Frederikke, three students from the IT University of Copenhagen, share with us their experience and findings in their collaboration with the C2E2 when carrying out their MSc thesis: "Examining Data Management in the Face of Climate Change". Through questionnaires and interviews, they investigated the existence of environmental sustainability in the data management strategy of Danish companies. They identified barriers and opportunities to enhance it in the future, given…
