Initial Findings of the IEA’s Analysis on Market-based Instruments (MBI)
The International Energy Agency (IEA) and RAP are conducting an in-depth analysis for the G7 on the design of market-based instruments (MBIs) for the delivery of energy efficiency. The study examines market mechanisms and economic instruments, such as auctions and tendering programmes, utility obligations, and white certificates, analysing the choices that policymakers face and the key factors behind successful programme design and implementation in different contexts. Dr. Jan Rosenow presented initial findings at this workshop which will form the basis of broader discussions on the place of market-based instruments in the energy efficiency policy mix.
