According to the 2020 Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction, the buildings and buildings construction sectors combined are responsible for over one-third of global final energy consumption and nearly 40% of total direct and indirect CO2 emissions. The path to low-emissions, efficient and resilient buildings, construction sectors will require greater collaboration among policymakers at all jurisdictional levels, as well as with urban planners, architects, developers, investors, construction companies and utility companies.
Based on the findings from the GlobalABC Regional Roadmap for Buildings and Construction in Asia, there exists significant potential in policy and technology development in the ASEAN region, across the areas including new building construction, building retrofits, appliances, building operations and construction materials.
This webinar, organised by the International Energy Agency (IEA) will explore some of the key questions around advancing energy efficiency in buildings in Southeast Asia. It will mark the official launch of the IEA’s new online course on Energy Efficiency in Buildings and is part of the IEA’s training programme in Southeast Asia this year. This free online course will be accessible on the day of the webinar here.
