- News 5 July 2019 Global partners gathered to map 2020 strategy and beyond We need district energy if we want to close the gap between our current actions and ambitions and where we need to be to reach the goals in the Paris Agreement and SDGs. Current national commitments to the Paris Agreement make for climate projections many degrees above the desired 1.5C standard to avoid the most catastrophic impacts of climate change. To achieve the energy transition necessary, it will be crucial to increase the share of renewables in power supplies while increasing…
- Project 14 May 2019 District Energy in Cities Initiative The Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency provides expertise in district energy solutions to cities, as a means of unlocking decentralised energy. We support cities to connect district energy with efficient buildings, waste heat resources and renewables to achieve greater sustainability. Our team supports cities in their heating and cool planning, local capacity building and in conducting pre-assessments and pre-feasibility studies. We are able to provide independent advice to cities in…

- Webinar & E-Learning 8 March 2019 Carbon Reduction and Energy Efficiency in the Water and Wastewater sector (Webinar) - 20.03.2019 The linkages between water and energy consumption are significant. To produce energy, water is needed and, likewise, the provision and treatment of water requires the consumption of energy, in particular of electricity (ca. 60%). Reports and analysis demonstrated that the water sector is becoming more energy-intensive, while the energy sector is increasing its water-intensity. In 2014, 120 Mtoe of energy was used in the water sector only, and the growing global water use suggests that the…
- Project 7 December 2018 Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions for Low Carbon Island Development Strategy The objective of this project is to ensure a low carbon economy development pathway for Mauritius by establishing the national capacity for formulating, prioritizing mitigation actions to implement Mauritius’ Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) for all mitigation sectors and further develop the local capacity to design and implement mitigation actions relevant for the energy sector. The project is structured into three components, as follows: Component 1: Strengthen national capability to…
