Country-level snapshots: waste-to-energy and cities: demand-side management
1st August 2013
Topic(s): Energy efficiency, Renewables
The Global Sustainable Cities Network (GSCN) is an initiative of the Clean Energy Ministerial, a high-level global forum to promote policies and programs that advance clean energy technology, to share lessons learned and best practices, and to encourage the transition to a global clean energy economy. The aim of the GSCN is to provide an open platform for groundbreaking sustainable city initiatives throughout the world to share knowledge that can be utilized and incorporated throughout the initiatives’ respective development life cycles.
Participant countries have produced the following country-level snapshots to summarize their activities, challenges, and successes in the areas of waste-to-energy and demand-side management in cities. Including commercial-scale projects, pilot studies, pipeline inventories, national market size and investment estimates, R&D status, best practices and policy mechanisms as well as identified areas of greatest interest to their respective constituents.

The Zero Carbon Australia Buildings Plan is the first comprehensive, nationwide plan to retrofit Australia’s buildings. This plan demonstrates how all existing buildings can reach zero emissions from their operation within ten years. It sets out how Australia can transform its building stock to reduce energy bills, generate renewable energy, add health and comfort to our living spaces, and make our workplaces more productive.

This report aims to give a comprehensive overview of the work of the Joint Research Centre (JRC) - the European Commission’s in-house science service - in relation to the global energy challenge. The description of the JRC’s work in this area is divided into 7 chapters including renewable energy and energy efficiency. For each chapter, the detailed policy context is cited, showing clearly how and where the JRC provides its scientific and technical support to energy-related policies. Furthermore, an ample list of publications for further reading is proposed as well as useful scientific tools such as maps, energy calculators, specialised information systems and databases.

Low carbon energy 2050: local and regional impact and perspectives
21st May 2013
Topic(s): Energy efficiency, Renewables
The scope of this report is to identify a set of framework conditions facilitating the European Union’s transition to low carbon economy (LCE) by local and regional authorities (LRAs). The identification process is supported by the evidence provided through the detailed description and analysis of four successful experiences, two at the local and two at the regional level.
