On 5 April 2016 the JRC presented the interactive and collaborative online European Energy Efficiency Platform. This beta platform is conceived to fill the gap opened by scattered data and fragmented knowledge resulting from a rapidly growing energy efficiency market. It is expected to be both a one-stop shop for information retrieval and a meeting point for experts to exchange data and reduce redundant activities.

Energy Generation and Distribution
Energy efficiency is not a single market: it covers measures in a diverse range of end-user sectors, end-use equipment and technologies and consists of very large numbers of small, dispersed projects with a dispersed range of decision makers. Overall, many EE technologies are proven and economic: if properly financed, the investment costs are paid back over short periods from energy cost savings.

Technology and Standards
Lighting is responsible for about 15% of global electricity consumption. LEDs are a new technologies introduced in the market over the last 10 years. LED offers a very high efficiency compared to traditional lamps and higher lighting quality compared to fluorescent lighting in the non-residential sector.

Behaviours and Social
This report aims at showing the present status of energy consumption in the EU-28, in the four main energy consuming sectors: residential, tertiary, transport and industry. During the last years, there have been efforts by the European Union to cut down on energy consumption and improve energy efficiency. From 2000 to 2014, there have been various initiatives that aim at reducing final energy consumption.

On 22 June 2016, the CoM Europe and Compact of Mayors announced the formation of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy (GCoM) - as a worldwide coalition of cities committed to fighting climate change. Over time, the Global Covenant of Mayors will work towards ensuring compatible and comparable reporting approaches for signatory cities worldwide.

Urban Areas
The Streetlight-EPC project has created demand and supply for Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) in 9 regions by setting up regional EPC facilitation services and supporting projects towards implementation. The facilitation services provided comprehensive support to municipalities (including members of the Covenant of Mayors) and (potential) ESCOs.

This paper analyses the role of barriers preventing the worldwide take-up of a clean technology: the electrical arc furnace. It also identifies which barriers affect a parameter that summarises the combined effect of all of them. The first step, determination of the combined effect of the barriers, is carried out using a novel approach to model the diffusion of innovations.
