They were tasked with answering the question: “What policies and investments would give Bangladesh the most impact for every taka spent?”

Den nye Tesla er slet ikke det vidunder for miljøet, som alle går og tror 

KRONIK - Da Elon Musk præsenterede den nye Tesla 3, annoncerede en logrende presse, at den "verdensændrende bil" kunne "dominere" markedet.

Repensando las políticas de eficiencia energética

Published by La Nacion

Mejorar la eficiencia energética es una política de moda que promueven los gobiernos en todo el mundo. En los papeles, parece algo obvio: mejorar la eficiencia energética se vende como una medida que reduce costos, genera empleos y salva al planeta. Se gana por todos lados -y los medios suelen aportar su granito de arena al centrarse enteramente en todos los supuestos beneficios-. Pero la historia tiene otra cara -y es negativa.

Přehodnoťme politiku energetické účinnosti

Published by Hospodářské noviny

Zlepšování energetické účinnosti je módní politika, kterou podporují vlády celého světa. Na papíře to vypadá jednoznačně: zlepšování energetické účinnosti se vydává za opatření, které snižuje náklady, vytváří pracovní místa a zachraňuje planetu. Všude jen samé výhody, výhody a výhody – a sdělovací prostředky často pomáhají dávat na tento stav razítko, když se zaměřují výhradně na předpokládané plusy. Celý příběh však má i druhou – odvrácenou – stranu.

Es lohnt sich, die Energieeffizienzpolitik zu überdenken

Published by Project Syndicate

Rethinking Energy-Efficiency Policies

Published by Project Syndicate

Improving energy efficiency is a fashionable policy that governments worldwide promote. On paper, it seems a no-brainer: improving energy efficiency is sold as cost-reducing, job-creating, and planet-saving. Win, win, win – and the media often help close the deal, focusing entirely on all the supposed upsides. But there is another side – a downside – to the story.

We must focus on the UN goals that are the best value for money

Published by The Guardian

Ten months ago, world leaders gathered at the United Nations to adopt 169 targets that will shape much of the $2.5tn expected to be spent on development assistance over the next 15 years, along with many trillions of dollars of national budgets.

This week government ministers return to discuss the implementation of the sustainable development goals, amid growing recognition of the challenges of pursuing so many well-meaning ambitions at once.
