Industry
Considerable opportunities exist for improving energy efficiency in the industrial sector, which consumes approximately 50% of the world’s energy. Countries around the world have achieved high cost-savings, energy demand and greenhouse gas emission reductions, as well as economic development through various industrial energy efficiency policies and programs. This page provides access to technical resources that policymakers can use to inform the design and implementation of energy efficiency policies and programs for the industrial sector.
