The transition to a lower
carbon economy is gathering pace – and with it comes major investment into new
sources of renewable energy. Energy efficiency is a major stake when it
comes to reducing gas emissions, fighting climate change and accelerating
growth in an inclusive and sustainable way. It accounts for ~40% of the
required reduction in greenhouse gases emissions to achieve the goals of the
Paris Agreement by 2050.
Energy efficiency also brings
major benefits, and in particular generates short-term savings. It is therefore
a perfect match between environmental and financial targets.
We want our community of
interest to foster concrete collaborations to boost business opportunities and
generate gains for its members, be they revenues for stakeholders providing
energy efficiency solutions or savings for companies implementing them. But
beyond that we have the ambition to create a virtuous circle where energy efficiency
would finance the energy transition.
BNP Paribas, Solar Impulse,
Michelin and ENGIE – under the umbrella of Movin’On – are collaborating to
bring together their network in a community of experts including energy
efficiency champions, solutions users and innovative start-ups, or other
organisations and public authorities.
A concrete example of our first contribution is a list of all the solutions labelled by Solar Impulse, which you can find below:
