About the product
Promotion of energy efficiency through legislation and regulatory measures seems to offer considerable scope for intra- and inter-regional exchanges of information and experiences. This compendium attempts to contribute to and facilitate the international and regional cooperation in this area. In addition to an overview of energy conservation legislation in the Asia and the Pacific region, it presents country profiles and case studies of national legislation for the promotion of energy conservation and energy efficiency. The Compendium also discusses national and state laws and regulations for promotion of energy conservation and energy efficiency in the region and for the United States of America. It also includes the full text of two Protocols: the Energy Charter Protocol on Energy Efficiency and Related Environmental Aspects and the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
