Energy Efficiency
Introduction
Issues related to energy efficiency are among the priority areas of work of the Committee on Sustainable Energy, and are addressed by one of its subsidiary bodies – the Group of Experts on Energy Efficiency.
The Group of Experts focuses on regulatory and policy dialogue addressing financial, technical and policy barriers, and on sharing best practices, including strengthening institutional capacity in the field of energy efficiency, and carries out concrete and results-oriented activities with the aim to achieve the following specific objectives:
- help significantly improve energy efficiency in the UNECE region, thus contributing to climate change mitigation efforts, and;
- strengthen regional cooperation in energy efficiency, with a view to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Key areas of work
In focus
In response to the request from Kazakhstan and Ukraine, UNECE has developed a study on the Potential for Improving Industrial Energy Efficiency in Kazakhstan and Ukraine. The study presents an analysis of publicly available data on energy consumption and energy sources associated with the industrial sector, up until December 2021, and makes an important case for addressing industrial sector energy efficiency and presents priority actions that the countries can take.
Highlights
Preparations are underway to the ninth session of the Group of Experts on Energy Efficiency (scheduled for 3-4 October 2022).
