Energy Management for Industry Executive summary
…double the rate of energy efficiency improvement At the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) in 2023, nearly 200 countries reached a landmark agreement to collectively double the global average annual rate of energy efficiency improvements by 2030. The rate of global energy efficiency progress has actually slowed, and, as the number one driver of global energy use industry is one of the main reasons for this slowdown. This is a result from two factors happening in parallel: first, the stagnation of industrial efficiency, and second, the growth of industrial energy demand. This is the worst possible scenario for efficiency progress…

Energy Efficiency 2025 Industry
…such as heat pumps. What are the key measures to accelerate progress? Upgrading motor systems is a key area to promote industrial efficiency. Countries can implement more stringent standards for new motors and equipment, such as fans, pumps and compressors. Additionally, promoting the use of variable-speed drives, through regulations and targeted incentives, can further increase savings in variable-load applications.Electrifying low-temperature heat using heat pumps is another important lever to accelerate efficiency progress, particularly in less intensive industries, due to its large share in energy use. Governments can accelerate heat pump deployment by offering grants or tax…

Ecuador
In Ecuador, The Energy Efficiency National Plan 2016-2035 presents an inter-sectoral plan for energy efficiency, policies in transport, industry, residence, production, generation and all energy consumption sectors. In 2013, a new feed-in tariff scheme for renewable energy projects also entered into force.

Gaining an Edge Opportunities in efficiency markets
…and rising energy costs, and is expected to maintain this momentum. In the EU alone, driven by the Fit for 55 package and the Renovation Wave strategy, the insulation sector could reach around USD 175 billion by 2030, creating approximately 1.5 million jobs. Similarly, electric motors, a component present in a large number of technologies, have also shown remarkable growth. The global electric motor market grew significantly between 2020 and 2024, reaching a value of USD 145 billion in 2024. While the overall sector expanded steadily, some companies more than doubled their revenue over the same period. Energy efficiency…

Assessing emissions from LNG supply and abatement options
…availability and reporting of emissions data from the natural gas value chain in recent years. However, estimates are still subject to a high degree of uncertainty. This interim report estimates emissions from LNG supply today, based on the latest and best available data including those from scientific studies and measurement campaigns. It covers upstream production and processing of natural gas, pipeline transmission from processing facilities to export terminals, liquefaction processes, shipping and regasification at import terminals. It considers methane emissions, flaring, naturally occurring sources of CO2 and energy consumption from across the supply chain. It also explores mitigation options, c...

World Energy Outlook 2022 Energy security in energy transitions
…unit energy consumption significantly, but the pace of improvement has slowed in recent years. Policies that accelerate the rate of retrofits are crucial as over half of the buildings that will be in use in 2050 have already been built.Reverse the slide into energy poverty and give poor communities a lift into the new energy economy. As a result of the pandemic and the energy crisis, 75 million people have lost the ability to pay for extended electricity services and 100 million for clean cooking solutions. In emerging market and developing economies, the poorest households consume nine-times less energy than…

Pledges to Progress 2025 Recommendations

emissions. Disclosing the proportion of flaring that is classified as “routine” (using a clear definition) would also allow progress to be tracked against zero routine flaring targets.Strengthen emissions reduction aims by extending targets, plans and disclosures to non-operated assets.Calculate the costs associated with the identified abatement opportunities and publish a marginal abatement cost curve that allows stakeholders to assess scope, scale and cost of abatement activities.Report on asset transfers and their impact on…

World Energy Investment 2025 Executive summary
…USD 1.1 trillion going to oil, natural gas and coal. Open questions about the economic and trade outlook means that some investors are adopting a wait-and-see approach to new project approvals, but we have yet to see significant implications for spending on existing projects. Rapid growth in spending on energy transitions over the past five years was kicked off by post-pandemic recovery packages and then sustained by a variety of economic, technology, industrial and energy security considerations, not only by climate policies. Some 70% of the increased spending came from net fossil fuel importers. This was led by…

Global Energy and Climate Model About the Global Energy and Climate Model
…four years, the IEA has worked to develop a new integrated modelling framework: the IEA’s Global Energy and Climate (GEC) Model. This model is now the principal tool used to generate detailed sector-by-sector and region-by-region long-term scenarios across IEA's publications.The GEC Model brings together the unique modelling capabilities of the WEM and ETP models. The result is a large-scale, bottom-up simulation modelling framework with elements of optimisation, allowing for a unique set of analytical capacities in energy markets, technology trends, policy strategies and investments across the energy sector. The IEA…
