•Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL) - goal and tracking

•Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency (C2E2) Regional Reports

•Global Energy Efficiency Accelerator Platform

•Readiness for Investment in Sustainable Energy (RISE) Initiative

•Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN)

One Goal:

Achieving Sustainable Energy for All by 2030 Three Objectives:

Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL)

Proxy indicator

Universal access to modern

energy services

Doubling global rate of improvement of energy efficiency

Doubling share of renewable energy in global

energy mix

Percentage of population with electricity access

Percentage of population with

primary reliance on non-solid fuels

Rate of improvement in energy intensity

What is the Global Energy Efficiency Accelerator Platform?

•Established to support specific sector-based energy efficiency accelerators.

•Targeting action at various levels - regions, countries, cities and companies.

•Developing Public-Private Partnerships including organisations, development banks, financial institutions etc.

•Platform was formally launched at UN SG CC Summit in September 2014 with an evolving group of Accelerators

Lighting Transport and Motor Fuel Efficiency

Appliances & Equipment Building Efficiency

District Energy

Global market transformation to efficient lighting

Improve the fuel economy capacity of the global car fleet

Promote sustainable building policies & practices worldwide

Support national & municipal governments to develop or

scale-up district energy systems

Industrial Energy Efficiency

Implementing Energy Management Systems,

technologies & practices

Global market transformation to efficient appliances & equipment

Power Sector Finance

Improving the efficiency of generation, transmission,

distribution & end-use

Accelerating investment in energy efficiency

The Accelerator Platform was established to support specific sector-based energy efficiency accelerators

Global Energy Efficiency Accelerator Platform

Transport and Motor Fuel Efficiency

Expected savings: 1 Gt CO2 by 2025 and 2 Gt CO2 - by 2050

The Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) was established in 2009 with the primary aim to:

• reduce emissions

• at least double the efficiency of the global vehicle fleet from an average of 8L/100 km in 2005 to 4L/100 km by 2050

• halve new light duty vehicle fuel economy (in l/100km or gCO2/km) by 2030

Governments joining the GFEI are committing to develop national fuel economy policies

more than 40 countries joined

Instruments Supported Regulatory policies: National Standards, Import Restrictions, Technology Mandates Economic instruments, Traffic control measures, Information Technology

en.lighten Global Partnership Programme Goal: To accelerate a global market transformation to environmentally sustainable, energy efficient lighting technologies, as well as to develop strategies to phase-out inefficient incandescent lamps.

67 partner countries worldwide

Appliances and Equipment - An integrated policy approach to transform markets

Appliances and Equipment Assessments

•33 Country Assessments have been completed in Latin America and Caribbean Region

•Transition to best available energy efficient refrigerators, air conditioners and electric fans in households in the LAC region could result in annual energy savings of 138 TWh - equivalent to USD 20 billion.

Building Partnership in Mexico City Commitment from city to:

– Implement a building energy code

– Retrofit public buildings

Launch event and workshop for common vision – 19 March 2015 – 100 Participants – including 25 city government, 5 federal

government, 20 businesses, 8 finance, 21 consultants

– 4 workgroups chaired by Mexico City staff and an SE4All partner, project managed by WRI/CTS EMBARQ

Action plan now underway:

5 International Organizations 6 Industry Associations 8 Private Sector Companies 27 Local and National Governments

Technical Assistance • City twinning. • Pre feasibility and feasibility

studies. • International consultants. • Metering equipment.

Awareness raising • Study tours. • Assistance in negotiations.

at national level. • Public consultations.

Successful Market Transformation

Demonstrations activities • Local planning policies. • Local and national support

programmes. • Regulatory framework. • Tariff structures.

Capacity Building & Knowledge Transfer

• Best practice sharing. • Training workshops. • Heat planning. • Local coordination

development.

Leveraging the Partnership and Pool of Expertise to Provide

Readiness for Investment in Sustainable Energy (RISE)

• A suite of indicators that assesses the legal and regulatory environment for investment in sustainable energy.

• Provide a global reference point that will support decision-making and inform country-level interventions under the SE4ALL initiative

• Pilot phase of 17 countries completed in 2014 • RISE encompasses 28 indicators and 85 sub-indicators across four

categories.
