bigEE makes energy efficiency in buildings and appliances transparent.

For investors, policy-makers and actors involved in implementation and consultancy.
The platform informs readers about energy efficiency options and savings potentials, net benefits and how policy can support achieving the savings. Targeted information is paired with examples of good practice.

Use the potential for cost effective energy-efficient appliances

Numerous studies have confirmed that enormous energy saving potentials of 60 to 85% can be realised by improving appliance energy efficiency, and that these are cost-effective and at the same time reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

As new technologies may allow even higher energy savings, global electricity demand for appliances in 2030 could be reduced by 1,500 TWh/yr, with the right policy support.

This guide was designed to help you find appropriate technologies and to operate appliances efficiently to reach ultra-low-energy consumption levels.
