Robust policies, action plans are impactful mechanisms to inculcate energy efficiency at various levels.  Various standards and labelling programs for equipment, appliances, and buildings play a major role in this. Energy Conservation Building Code is one such example.

Policies correlate the climate change issues and their impact on the national economy and society with an emphasis on energy efficiency, if implemented well. Community engagement, adequate humans and material resources bridge the gap between policy creation and implementation.

The impending sense of doom due to global warming, disturbed weather due to climate change requires dedicated action plans, strategy documents to execute the policies derived from the SDGs, and other global agendas.

Additionally, a more dynamic and evolved outlook is required towards policy formulation. The deliberations in the session shall focus on the policy framework for energy efficiency in the country, execution mechanisms, challenges and issues.
