The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved India’s decision to join the International Energy Efficiency Hub by signing a Letter of Intent. This strategic move aligns with India’s commitment to advancing sustainable development and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through global cooperation.

The International Energy Efficiency Hub (Hub) was established in 2020 as the successor to the International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC), in which India had previously participated. The Hub brings together governments, international organizations, and private sector entities to collaborate on promoting energy efficiency across the globe.

With India’s inclusion, the Hub now comprises 16 members, including countries like the United States, China, the United Kingdom, and Germany, and the European Commission. As a member, India will gain access to a wide network of global experts, resources, and best practices that can bolster its own energy efficiency initiatives.

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), a statutory agency under the Ministry of Power, has been designated as the implementing body for India’s participation in the Hub. BEE will facilitate India’s engagement in the Hub’s activities, ensuring alignment with national energy efficiency goals and promoting the adoption of energy-efficient technologies.

India’s participation in the International Energy Efficiency Hub is seen as a vital step toward transitioning to a low-carbon economy. By collaborating with global partners, India aims to accelerate its energy efficiency initiatives, contribute to international efforts to combat climate change, and enhance its energy security.
