SUMMARY:IEA 10th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency 2025
DESCRIPTION:The International Energy Agency’s 10th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency is being co-hosted by IEA Executive Director Dr Fatih Birol and European Commissioner for Energy and Housing Dan Jørgensen\, in Brussels on 12 and 13 June 2025. The event is being held in partnership with the Energy Efficiency Movement. \n\n\n\nThe 10th edition of the IEA’s landmark event comes at a pivotal moment. Governments agreed at COP28 to double the rate of global energy efficiency improvements by 2030. Achieving this goal is critical if the international community is to bring about the secure\, affordable clean energy system that can meet our shared climate goals. But progress must accelerate rapidly if the goal is to be met. \n\n\n\nThe 10th Global Conference provides the key forum in 2025 for Ministers\, CEOs and senior leaders to come together to chart a path towards achieving the doubling goal. They will examine how best to maximise energy efficiency’s potential to boost affordability for consumers\, industrial competitiveness and energy security – in every region of the world. Over two days of high-level panels\, roundtable discussions\, workshops and meetings\, participants will develop solutions for enacting stronger policy action and unlocking investment in energy efficiency.  \n\n\n\nA ministerial roundtable chaired by the co-hosts will provide the setting for government decision makers to discuss how to move forward. A parallel CEO roundtable\, held in collaboration with the Energy Efficiency Movement\, will allow industry leaders to examine the challenges and opportunities they face in order to overcome barriers to further progress. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to welcoming delegates from around the world to this pivotal event. Participation is by invitation only. If you have any questions then please contact efficiency.conference@iea.org

SUMMARY:WorldGBC: NDCs Building Local Impact Webinar
DESCRIPTION:WorldGBC invites you to the inaugural webinar in our #BeBoldOnBuildings COP30 series: NDCs Building Local Impact. \n\n\n\nThis year’s COP30 in Belém\, Brazil\, will be a critical inflection point for global climate action as countries update Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). In this webinar we will uncover the gaps and opportunities for policymakers and industry to #BeBoldOnBuildings; and officially launch our new ‘NDC Scorecard for Sustainable Buildings’ — a tool which enables governments to analyse\, align and action bolder building policies ahead of COP30. \n\n\n\nAbout the NDC Scorecard \n\n\n\nMost countries’ NDCs and policies are not ambitious or detailed enough when it comes to the built environment. Whilst 81% of NDCs reference buildings\, only 18% include quantified targets and just 16% outline funding strategies. \n\n\n\nOur NDC Scorecard tool addresses these issues whilst supporting governments and key stakeholders by: highlighting the gaps\, identifying action areas\, supporting advocacy engagement\, and preparing political actors to develop wider decarbonisation roadmaps. \n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\nWe are delighted to be joined by keynote speaker Antonio Francisco da Costa e Silva Neto\, Ambassador from the Office of the Minister of Cities in Brazil\, to share insights on the built environment ahead of COP30. \n\n\n\nWe will also hear from government officials and Green Building Council implementers in Brazil and the United Arab Emirates to discuss what a strong outcome for the built environment at COP30 looks like\, and the role NDCs play. \n\n\n\nAgenda: \n\n\n\n\nKeynote speech from Antonio Francisco da Costa e Silva Neto\, Ambassador\, Chief International Advisor\, Office of the Minister of Cities\, Brazil \n\n\n\nWorldGBC NDC Scorecard for Sustainable Buildings launch and live demo  \n\n\n\nPanel discussion diving into international and country-level NDC\, policy and community implementation in the lead-up to COP30:\n\nAntonio Francisco da Costa e Silva Neto\, Ambassador\, Chief International Advisor\, Office of the Minister of Cities\, Brazil \n\n\n\nFelipe Faria\, CEO\, GBC Brasil \n\n\n\nCarlos Andres Amaya\, Programs Development & Oversight Section Head\, UAE Government  \n\n\n\n\n\nQ&A

SUMMARY:#BeBoldOnBuildings COP 30 Webinar Series - Adapting with Impact
DESCRIPTION:We’re showcasing real-world case studies from business leaders who are prioritising resilience and adaption across the building sector — by empowering local communities\, protecting vulnerable regions\, and designing buildings that can withstand climate shocks. \n\n\n\nAccording to the UNFCCC\, only 62 parties have submitted adaption communications under the Global Stocktake. There’s an urgent need for greater transparency\, leadership\, and local action. \n\n\n\nThis session will introduce the “Developing a strategy for climate resilient buildings” — a position paper outlining how resilient building strategies can safeguard communities\, support climate goals\, and deliver business value. \n\n\n\nJoin this webinar as we spotlight green building solutions that prioritise adaptation and resilience to protect people\, infrastructure\, and investments from escalating climate risks. \n\n\n\nAbout the #BeBoldOnBuildings COP30 webinar series In the lead-up to COP30 in Belém\, Brazil\, our webinar series highlights tangible case studies from industry leaders who are already scaling actionable climate solutions in the built environment. \n\n\n\nCOP30 will be a critical turning point as countries update Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) — action plans that implement the Paris Agreement and close the gaps highlighted by the Global Stocktake. \n\n\n\nAchieving this requires a tripling of renewable energy capacity\, doubling energy efficiency improvements\, and moving decisively away from fossil fuels. \n\n\n\nFrom developers and investors to manufacturers and technology providers — the building and construction community are already implementing green building solutions that plug this gap. \n\n\n\nJoin us to lead the global Mutirão for the built environment.
