Energy Efficiency in Emerging Economies
…critical role in addressing climate change, energy security and the economic welfare of people. The E4 programme has pioneered the IEA’s work with major emerging economies since 2014, supporting Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa at a country-level and in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa at a regional-level. The programme supports exchanges and cross-learning between partner countries and regions, helping countries build, implement and monitor effective energy efficiency.Against the backdrop of the ongoing effects of the energy and climate crisis, emerging and developing economies will account…

State of Energy Policy 2026
The IEA State of Energy Policy 2026 report provides with a unique review of policy progress made in 2025 across all energy sectors and instruments, with a special focus on government spending, energy efficiency regulations, and the contribution of the energy sector to nationally determined contributions and long-term net zero pledges.This year’s report brings an extensive examination of energy security policies to the period 1973-2025, from oil and natural gas to clean energy technology supply chains and critical minerals. It also spotlights the policy momentum around energy access, most particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, taking stock…

Tajikistan
Hydropower is the main source of energy in Tajikistan, followed by imported oil, gas and coal. However, Tajikistan's energy sector is prone to supply shocks, due to seasonal shortages. Energy policy focuses on providing uninterrupted energy access to all users while improving regional co‑operation and energy sector efficiency, but significant domestic and foreign investment will be necessary for continued energy sector development. Tajikistan is part of the EU4Energy Programme, an initiative focused on evidence-based policymaking for the energy sector.

Kyrgyzstan
Kyrgyzstan’s hydro-rich energy sector is characterised by aging infrastructure and significant losses, which are exacerbated by a combination of weather-related shocks and growing demand. Energy policy aims to improve energy security by developing indigenous energy sources and rehabilitating and expanding transmission and distribution networks. Developing sustainable energy and improving energy efficiency are also priorities, while slowly removing subsidies will allow for further investment and expansion of domestic resources. Kyrgyzstan is part of the EU4Energy Programme, which is focused on evidence-based policymaking in the energy sector.

Universal Access to Clean Cooking in Africa
Progress update and roadmap for implementation Clean cooking access is a defining challenge for Africa’s prosperity. While the number of people without access to clean cooking has halved globally since 2010, the number in sub-Saharan Africa continues to rise. This harms health, economic development, and the environment – contributing to 815 000 premature deaths annually and significant deforestation.In a new report, Universal Access to Clean Cooking in Africa: Progress update and roadmap to implementation, the International Energy Agency (IEA) provides an updated picture of where things stand today, where efforts are gaining ground, and where urgent action is…

National Grand Energy Strategy
The Energy Grand Strategy aims at supporting Indonesia in achieving its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets. The Grand Strategy includes plans to reduce oil and LPG imports, promote electric vehicle development, improve old oil refineries and construct new ones, and develop renewable energy, among others. It also set a 100% target of renewables portion in the energy mix by 2060.

Support to Just Energy Transition Partnerships (JETPS)
Canada supports the JETPs in Indonesia, Vietnam, South Africa and Senegal. JETPS are financing cooperation mechanism, the aims of which are to help a selection of heavily coal-dependent emerging economies make a just energy transition. The goal is to support these countries' self-defined pathways as they move away from coal production and consumption while doing so in a way that addresses the social consequences involved, such as by ensuring training and alternative job creation for affected workers and new economic opportunities for affected communities.
