Description

Description Demand-side efficiency improvements represent nearly half of the total emissions abatement opportunity to deliver the Paris GHG emission reduction goals, particularly in the near term, while offering wider economic and social benefits. Three percent annual improvement (measured as global energy intensity) represents the opportunity (analysis shows it is achievable through good policies); the necessity (it is the rate required to deliver the Paris goals); and the commitment (to meet Sustainable Development Goal 7).

Efficiency progress has been slowing since 2015, down from almost 3% annual improvement in energy intensity to just 1.3% in 2018, and immediate policy action is required to reverse this worrying trend. Many of the policy and technology solutions are well known, yet only a minority of Nationally Determined Commitments (NDCs) currently contain specific commitments to energy efficiency actions or targets. With growing pressure for stronger action on the Paris goals, revision of NDCs represents a timely and ideal intervention point to strengthen ambition on efficiency through firm policy commitments backed by private-sector and institutional commitments to provide technical and financial support.

Objectives
Activities Three Percent Club partners have cost-effective approaches and solutions ready to save energy and improve social and economic development for countries. Applying these solutions and scaling up energy efficiency requires a coordinated effort to increase market penetration of energy-efficient technologies and service solutions. Three Percent Club partners will engage member countries to put them on a sustained path toward a 3% annual improvement in energy efficiency by transforming countries by matching energy efficiency solutions to economy-wide and end-use sector needs. Key actions include:

Convene: provide matchmaking for governments with civil society and private-sector organization solutions. Commit: Enhance private and public commitments and ambition on energy efficiency Strategize: Conduct analysis and develop energy efficiency strategies and action plans Learn: Develop and deliver training, tools, information and capacity building. Implement: Provide technical and financial assistance for policy and project implementation Communicate: Advise on performance tracking, reporting and communicating progress on energy efficiency. While strategy and action are needed economy-wide, investments happen within specific sectors. We support increased investment in sustainable buildings, cities ,energy supply , industry, products, services, and transport.
