Thematic session: Demand-side energy data for improving lives
Event backgroundIn today’s context of energy market volatility and economic uncertainty, energy efficiency remains one of the most effective tools to support affordability, energy security and competitiveness. The 11th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency will bring together global leaders to accelerate policy action at this critical moment. The availability, quality, and use of demand-side energy data are essential enablers of effective energy efficiency policy.As clean energy transitions accelerate, understanding energy consumption across end uses, sectors and population groups is increasingly important, yet, demand-side energy data remains limited, particularly in the emerging economies. This limitation constrains…

Ireland Support Scheme for Renewable Heat (SSRH)
In December 2017, the Support Scheme for Renewable Heat (SSRH) was approved by Government. The Scheme is a government funded initiative designed to increase the energy generated from renewable sources in the heat sector. The scheme is open to commercial, industrial, agricultural, district heating, public sector and other non-domestic heat users.
The primary objective of the support scheme for renewable heat is to increase the level of renewable energy in the heat sector. This will contribute to meeting Ireland’s 2020 renewable energy targets whilst also reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The government funded scheme will support the adoption of… -
