Study on energy efficiency and energy saving potential in industry and on possible policy mechanisms

The study evaluated eight energy intensive industrial sector groups, and four tertiary sector groups. A detailed bottom-up modelling assessment of the energy consumption trends and energy saving potential through 2050 of the eight industrial sectors was conducted. For the tertiary sectors, due to data limitations, a high-level summary of energy use profiles, energy saving opportunities, implementation barriers and policy options is presented based on literature review.
