Home Energy Saving Scheme
…Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI) began running the Home Energy Saving Scheme in March 2009. The grant scheme seeks to encourage retrofit investments by home owners to improve the energy efficiency of their homes. Fixed grants are available up to 40% of the cost. Eligible measures are insulation (cavity wall, attic, external wall, internal wall), heating controls, highly efficient boilers ( over 90% efficiency), and energy assessments. This scheme will be superseded by the National Retrofit Programme, which will be announced/properly launched later in 2011. This scheme was superseded by the launch of Better Energy: Homes under the Better Energy brand…

National Energy Saving Programme: Financial Assistance for Energy Conservation in Residential Buildings
The Hungarian government offers grants for the improvement and modernisation of residential buildings in terms of energy efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions. Such subsidies fit within the national strategy to reduce domestic energy consumption and reduce domestic energy costs. Prime activities include: - additional heat insulation - modernisation (additional insulation or replacement) of doors and windows - modernisation or replacement of heating and hot water supply equipment The greenhouse gas emissions avoided by such efficient residential energy consumption may be eligible for trade.

Landlords Energy Saving Allowance (LESA)
This policy, announced in 2004, provides an incentive for private landlords to improve the energy efficiency of the residential properties that they let. The policy provided upfront relief (up to GBP 1500) for capital expenditure on investment in cavity wall and loft insulation. In 2005, it was extended cover solid wall insulation, in 2006 to include draught proofing and hot water system insulation, and again in 2007 to include floor insulation. Also in 2007, the programme was extended to 2015, and the government also sought state aid approval to extend its availability to corporate landlords.

Mali
In recent years, the rate of access to electricity in Mali has surpassed 25%, thanks to a public focus on mini-grid solutions. The government of Mali now plans to increase hybridisation of its mini-grids by adding PV capacity to diesel power plants. In 2019, Mali’s energy mix was dominated by biofuels and wastes (65%) and oil products (32%), with coal and hydro accounting for the rest. In 2020, less than 5% of the population had access to clean cooking and 52% had access to electricity. For electricity access, the country targets 70% access by 2025, 80% by…

Law of Turkmenistan on Energy Saving and Efficient Use of Energy
The Law on Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency establishes the national legal framework for reducing energy consumption and improving energy efficiency across sectors including buildings. The law introduces energy efficiency indicators, mandatory energy audits and “energy passports” for facilities and allows the government to establish efficiency requirements for buildings and structures. It also provides for short-term (1-year) and long-term (5-year) energy efficiency programmes and state support measures such as preferential loans and incentives for energy-efficient technologies and construction.

E-TRANS energy saving programme
Following on from the calls for projects on the Heavy Electric Vehicle Ecosystems, an E-TRANS energy-saving program operated by ADEME has been implemented for 2024. This program aims to provide financial support to professional road transport stakeholders and local authorities to electrify their heavy vehicle fleets, through financial assistance for the purchase, long-term leasing, or retrofitting of battery-electric heavy goods vehicles, buses, coaches, and urban shuttles. This program, with a budget of €130 million for 2024, will support the acquisition of at least 2,100 heavy goods vehicles, including at least 85% heavy goods vehicles, through…

Ultra-Low Emission and Energy-Saving Transformation Work Plan for Coal-Fired Power Plants
The Action Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction of Coal-fired Power aoùs at promoting the implmentation of "ultra-low emissions" coal power plants, with air pollutant limits for new installations to be complying with the following norms: SO2: 35 mg/m3NOx: 50 mg/m3PM: 10 mg/m3Hg: 30 mg/m3From 2020 onwards, all coal-fired power plants in the country that are eligible for retrofitting shall strive to achieve the emissions limits implemented for new installations.

Law on energy saving and energy efficiency
In 2017, with the assistance of the EU4Energy Programme, Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Azerbaijan started to develop law on energy saving and energy efficiency. The draft law on energy efficiency covers several energy efficiency measures and provisions inside including energy efficiency in buildings. Draft law also includes several approaches in the energy efficiency field like setting up energy auditing, energy management, energy efficiency services, efficiency in the production, transmission, distribution etc. Draft law is under consideration by the relevant government institutions and it is expected to enter into force in 2019.
Draft law is still under review…
