Forum on Energy Efficiency Projects in CDM and JI, 19-20 March 2007, and Experts Group Meeting, 21-22 March 2007, Vienna, Austria.

The energy efficiency and climate meetings, organized by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), aim to offer new insights on how to reduce energy inefficiency in industry, save increasingly expensive fuel and power and control the growth of industrial greenhouse gas emissions in developing and transition economy countries.

The event is organized in two parts. The Forum on Energy Efficiency Projects in CDM and JI will take place from 19-20 March 2007 and is an initiative of UNIDO in partnership with the Climate Technology Initiative (CTI) and UK Trade and Investment. It aims to provide a forum for business and industry to advance their understanding of energy efficiency projects within the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism and the barriers to their development and implementation. The forum will provide an opportunity for discussion among countries hosting CDM and JI projects and countries that are interested in purchasing emissions reductions to meet their emissions reduction targets. The provisional agenda is available at: http://www.unido.org/file-storage/download/?file_id=63298.

The Experts Group Meeting will take place from 21-22 March 2007 and will focus on the practical aspects of optimizing the efficiency of electric motor and other industrial energy systems. The meeting aims to contribute to the body of knowledge concerning the promulgation of energy management standards as incentives for sustainable industrial energy efficiency and will also inform UNIDO's industrial energy efficiency program. The draft agenda for the Experts Group Meeting is available at: http://www.unido.org/file-storage/download/?file_id=63296.
