Barbados National Energy Policy (BNEP 2019-2030) proposes a 100% renewable energy and carbon neutral island- state transformational goal by 2030.
This report seeks to make a contribution to scaling up energy efficiency through improved planning and design of energy efficiency interventions in the developing countries by starting with the basic management principle of What gets measured gets done. The report reviews global experience with the measurement and verification (M and V) of energy efficiency and the emerging field of recognizing the multiple benefits of energy efficiency (MBEE). Through the references, examples, data and practices highlighted in this report, this reports seeks to help practitioners demonstrate the performance of energy efficiency interventions. The overarching objective is to enable project developers, policy...

Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) over the next 30 years will critically depend upon urban land use and infrastructure development actions taken across multiple sectors (buildings, energy, transportation, water-sanitation, and waste) in global cities. Integrated urban planning addresses a multiplicity of urban sustainability objectives (e.g., economy, environment, inclusivity, and resilience) (GPSC, World Bank 2018), including cross-sectoral and cross-scale linkages (Ramaswami et al. 2016) and connection of physical planning with social, cultural, behavior, and policy dimensions. The objective of this report is to review the state of knowledge (science) and the state of practice (models actually used by cities for...
