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.

This peer-review paper presents a new mathematical approach to the diffusion of energy efficient technologies using the diffusion of natural processes as an analogy. This approach is applied to the diffusion of the electric arc furnace in Japan. The main advantage offered by the new approach, is the incorporation of an average effect of barriers to, and support measures for, innovation.

Brussels, BE — Tuesday, June 14, 2016 - 09:00 to 14:00
The workshop presents the scale of the highly costeffective energy savings that can be obtained from broader and more effective adoption of energy management (EM) across the EU, followed by an open discussion with representatives of industry and the Commission, on how current EU policy instruments (such as the EPBD and the EED) could evolve to become more supportive of unlocking these largescale savings.

The development of standard procedures for measurement and verification (M&V) of savings is an important task for the promotion of the ESCO business. The key to unlocking the enormous potential for energy efficiency worldwide is securing financing. Good measurement practices and verifiability are some of the important elements in providing the confidence needed to secure funding for projects.

Financing
Three broad options for financing energy efficiency improvements can be distinguished.
ESCO financing refers to financing with internal funds of the ESCO and may involve own capital or equipment lease. ESCO rarely use equity for financing, as this options limits their capability of implementing projects on a sustainable basis;
