Organization

IIEC is a non-governmental (NGO), not-for-profit organization, which was established in 1984, to foster the implementation of energy efficiency in developing countries and countries in transition. IIEC has full time local staff in each of its offices that are well placed to contribute to programs due to their extensive exposure to energy, transport and environmental activities in the region and their understanding of cultural issues relevant to the countries. As an organization with proven technical capabilities, IIEC designs policies, implements programs, and supports institutions that mainstream energy efficiency in the entire value chain of energy systems and use. IIEC’ s approach focuses on implementation, resulting in policies developed in partnership with key policymakers and industry in our target countries as well as the bilateral and multilateral institutions that help to shape energy policy and investment priorities globally.


Mission

IIEC' s mission is to accelerate the global adoption of energy efficiency, transport and environmental policies, technologies and practices to enable economic and environmentally sustainable development. The emphasis is finding local sustainable solutions to global energy, transport and environmental issues. IIEC assists in the scale-up and implementation of the solutions through the establishment of sustainable institutions.
