The G20 Energy Efficiency Forum and the Energy Efficiency Investment Toolkit
The G20 energy efficiency work has not got much attention but there are some good things happening. At the event the group, with 15 participating countries chaired by France and Mexico, launched its G20 Energy Efficiency Toolkit. The toolkit offers a perspective on scaling up energy efficiency investments by defining and separating core EE investments - those stand-alone projects where energy savings are the main driver and integral investments where overall asset performance is the lead driver. It is a normal investment and a missed opportunity to include cost-effective energy efficiency measures. We need to change that through better regulation, capacity building amongst investors Banks and investors can help this process by building in checks and questions during their investment decision making. And we need to take actions to increase the rate energy efficiency we must take steps to increase efficiency. To scale up our energy efficiency, and actions to reduce customer risks by reducing customer risks and increase the deployment of capital into cost- effective efficiency opportunities within normal investments.
