Abstract
The best practices of energy efficiency were selected by reviewing cases collected from the results of IEA research and prior studies, and then by evaluating the correspondence of each case for four attributes including economic performance, synergy, political adjustment, and marketability. The selected best practices included 36 cases in 6 fields such as governance, finance, utility, home, transportation, and industry/small and medium-sized businesses. The reduction of energy costs has brought countries implementing best practices of energy efficiency a variety of benefits, including higher rate of return, the reduction of incidental expenses, the increase of productivity, and the improvement of accessibility to energy. To have similar effects, other countries need to adjust these best practices before applying to their situations.
