The global energy context today
Global energy markets are changing rapidly
North America entering a new age of energy prosperity
Renewables keep breaking records, underpinned by policy support & cost reductions
Electric car sales are growing exponentially
Energy efficiency is making a growing contribution to all core energy policy
goals, including economic growth, access, security & decarbonisation
But strong government policies will be essential to deliver energy
efficiency's full potential

Conclusions
Energy efficiency offers multiple benefits and must be at the center of energy policy making
Policy delivers, but stronger policy is required: Still 70% of global energy use is outside of any
mandatory efficiency requirements
An integrated systems approach considering all technology options must be implemented to
accelerate progress
The IEA is working with partners countries to accelerate energy efficiency uptake
Training more than 500 policy makers from emerging countries in 2017
The IEA’s new Global Exchange Platform for Energy Efficiency will be a global resource for best
practice knowledge, analysis and sharing
