Energy Efficiency: RISE Energy Efficiency vs Business Environment

The document highlights a strong correlation between high energy efficiency scores in the RISE index and high rankings in the Ease of Doing Business among the top twenty high-impact countries. It identifies dedicated entities and specific measures like minimum energy performance standards and building codes as essential for implementing energy efficiency, while noting that Nigeria exhibits both low energy efficiency scores and a low Doing Business rank.

• There is a strong correlation between a high overall RISE Energy Efficiency score and a high ranking on the Ease of Doing Business among the top twenty high-impact countries.
• Effective energy efficiency implementation requires dedicated government entities and the adoption of minimum energy performance standards, appliance labels, and building codes, though sectoral-targeted policies and financing mechanisms are often neglected.
• Nigeria demonstrates a lack of both energy efficiency policy and a favorable business environment, scoring 11 in RISE Energy Efficiency (low in 11 of 12 indicators) and ranking 169 out of 190 in Doing Business.
