SUMMARY:COP31 | Accelerating electrification to achieve the climate goals: Enabling conditions and opportunities
DESCRIPTION:A UNFCCC Official Side Event. \n\n\n\nElectrification is one of the fastest ways to cut emissions and boost resilience\, while supporting energy security\, competitiveness and job creation.   \n\n\n\nThis official UNFCCC side event will explore how electrification can be accelerated globally\, examining the opportunities and challenges\, the enabling conditions required\, the skills and technical capabilities needed\, and the role of alliances in supporting and advancing climate goals. Panellists will share practical examples and best practice from academia and the private sector\, drawing on experiences from both the Global South and Global North.   \n\n\n\nHosted by Cambridge Institute of Sustainability Leadership (CISL)

SUMMARY:WorldGBC @ COP31 | Clean electrification of buildings
DESCRIPTION:This event will bring together the public and private sectors to explore national ambitions and implementation pathways for the clean electrification of buildings\, alongside the practical expertise required to deliver them.  \n\n\n\nRepresentatives from national and subnational governments will set out their vision\, ambitions and priorities for advancing this agenda which is currently lagging behind. The private sector will then provide its perspective on the challenges to delivery\, while showcasing the solutions\, capabilities and expertise needed to translate ambition into projects and drive progress forward.  \n\n\n\nHosted by WorldGBC\, GlobalABC Finance Hub (GIZ\, PEEB\, IFC/World Bank)

SUMMARY:COP31 | Scale built circular: Policy & markets in the global south
DESCRIPTION:Globally\, the buildings and construction sector accounts for around one-fifth of greenhouse gas emissions\, generates up to 40 percent of waste\, and consumes nearly one-third of all raw materials extracted worldwide. The current linear construction paradigm is unable to keep expanding within the planetary boundaries while meeting the growing demand for housing\, commercial buildings and infrastructure. \n\n\n\nCircular Economy keeps building materials in a closed loop economy\, offering a fundamentally different paradigm that is urgently needed to solve the triple planetary crisis of climate change\, biodiversity loss and pollution. This event is organised by the GlobalABC Circular Built Environment group led by the Ministry of the Environment Finland and RMIT university and it discusses the power of policies and markets for mainstreaming a Circular Built Environment in the fast-growing Global South. \n\n\n\nHosted by GlobalABC Circular Built Environment group led by the Ministry of the Environment Finland and RMIT University

SUMMARY:COP31 | Housing affordability through energy efficiency and building performance
DESCRIPTION:The COP31 Presidency’s “35 by 35 Global Electrification Pledge” aims to increase electricity’s share of global energy use. Expanding clean power alone will not be enough. Energy efficiency\, deep retrofits and better building performance can reduce demand\, lower operating costs and support climate goals.  \n\n\n\nBuilding on Canada’s National Electricity Strategy and the Belém Call for Action on Sustainable and Affordable Housing\, this panel will explore how high-performance buildings provide a pathway to electrification. Drawing on experience in development\, design and affordable housing\, panelists will share practical lessons from new construction and large-scale retrofits. They will discuss how governments\, investors\, designers and housing providers can overcome barriers and scale solutions that improve affordability and quality of life. \n\n\n\nHosted by Canada Green Building Council

SUMMARY:COP31 | Efficiency first: How regulation\, finance and measured performance decarbonize buildings faster
DESCRIPTION:The cheapest and cleanest energy is the energy we do not use. The IEA calls efficiency the “first fuel”\, yet the world improves by around 2.2% a year when it needs to more than double that pace by 2030. Buildings account for about 30% of global final energy use and more than half of electricity consumption. A building built to a modern code can use up to 50% less energy\, and replacing a fossil boiler with a heat pump can cut energy use by up to 75%.  \n\n\n\nThis session brings regulation\, measured performance and finance into a single format. Two keynotes set the direction. A first panel shows how French building regulation\, the Décret Tertiaire and RE2020\, together with the World Championship for Energy Savings (WCES)\, inspires other countries and makes real performance comparable internationally. A second panel addresses scale through finance\, drawing on PEEB’s ten years of experience and concrete public-private cases. The whole session serves the COP31 Presidency goal of cutting building sector energy intensity by at least 25% by 2035.  \n\n\n\nHosted by Schneider Electric\, AFD (PEEB)\, A4MT (Action for Market Transformation)\, GIZ
