Our manifesto

A Movement is a collective and sustained force for change powered by a shared purpose,collaboration, and a clear vision. What makes a movement thrive is when individuals and organizations come together, united by a goal bigger than themselves.

The Energy Efficiency Movement brings together industry leaders and the broader private sector to accelerate the transition towards net-zero through energy efficiency. We raise awareness, spark innovation, share knowledge, build.partnerships, and foster collaboration.

As we grow, we envision a future where energy efficiency is embedded into the strategy of every organization, in every sector, especially in industry, transportation, and buildings. Together, our community of Movers is creating and sustaining the momentum needed for the transition toward smarter energy use through energy efficiency. With every step forward, we are shaping a stronger, more sustainable economy for generations to come.
