- News 16 August 2021 Closing the Energy Efficiency knowledge gaps 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 maintaining or boosting productivity. The potential in improving energy efficiency is also reflected in Sustainable Development Goal 7, which calls…
- News 12 November 2020 New guide: Upscaling Energy-efficiency in Municipalities Climate change is one of the greatest threats humanity faces today, and cities are instrumental in reaching the global climate goals and solving the crisis. Already, more than half of the world population lives in cities, and projections show, that by 2050 another 2.5 billion people will join them, thus increasing the rate to 68 per cent of the total global population. As of May 2020, the UNFCCC platform on climate change actions had registered climate change actions by over 10,000 cities…

- Project 22 May 2019 Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency – Technical educational training The Copenhagen Centre supports project implementation by supporting the development of technical and vocational training programmes on energy efficiency.When it comes to implementing energy efficiency projects in developing countries, the lack of practitioner skills can be a barrier. This is repeatedly identified through the Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency's direct engagement with governments around the world. To support to the energy transition of developing economies and project…
