Joint IEA-UNDP webinar sets out key steps in planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation
Details
Buildings are the largest consumers of energy worldwide and will continue to be a source of increasing energy demand in the future. The challenges of the projected increase of energy consumption due to the built environment vary by country. In the International Energy Agency (IEA) member countries, much of the future buildings stock is already in place, and so the main challenge is to renovate the existing buildings stock. In non-IEA countries, more than half of the buildings stock needed by 2050 has yet to be built.
The IEA and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) partnered to analyse current practices in the design and implementation of building energy codes. The aim is to consolidate existing efforts and to encourage more attention to the role of the built environment in a low-carbon and climate-resilient world.
