The Clean Energy Solutions Center, in coordination with the International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC), hosted this webinar to highlight the energy efficiency achievements that have resulted from international cooperation under the G20—and how these offer solutions to the COP21 discussions.

At the G20 Leader’s Summit in Brisbane in November 2014, G20 countries agreed to work together to further energy efficiency both in their domestic policies and internationally (through the G20 Energy Efficiency Action Plan). On 2 October in Istanbul, G20 Energy Ministers provided strong support to this year’s achievements and to proposed work for the Chinese G20 in 2016, marking a key milestone for international cooperation on energy efficiency. This webinar will discuss those accomplishments and future proposed work. IPEEC has been at the heart of the implementation of the G20 Energy Efficiency Action Plan this year. In this 60-minute webinar, Benoit Lebot, IPEEC’s Executive Director, shared the significant achievements scored in each area of the G20 Energy Efficiency Action Plan, along with plans for 2016. And, presentations were followed by an interactive question and answer session with the audience.
