2025

Annual
Report

Chair’s Statement

Often described as the “first fuel,” energy efficiency has long underpinned the clean energy transition, playing a vital role in lowering consumer bills and supporting economic growth.

Recent energy price volatility has further highlighted its importance as a key pillar of national energy security: as by reducing consumption without compromising the services households and businesses rely on, efficiency measures cut the need for imported fuels and strengthen energy resilience.

At COP30, countries re-affirmed the ambitious pledge first agreed at COP28 — to double the global annual rate of energy efficiency improvement from two percent to over four percent by 2030. Meeting this target will require coordinated action across all sectors, with end-use equipment central to the effort. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has noted, achieving this goal would require appliances to become 30–40% more efficient by 2030.

Established policy instruments — including minimum efficiency performance standards and energy labelling schemes — have already proven highly effective at improving equipment performance while lowering household costs. The IEA’s Technology Collaboration Programme on Energy Efficient End-Use Equipment (4E TCP) offers governments a trusted platform to collaborate, share best practices, and strengthen policies that deliver these outcomes.

I am delighted to continue as Chair of the 4E TCP as the fourth term advances with an expanded scope. Alongside our continued work on conventional efficiency measures, we are deepening our focus on emerging priorities — demand flexibility, system-wide improvements, and the rapid rise of new end-uses such as data centres. These efforts align closely with national policy goals and the wider energy transition, helping to build energy systems that are more adaptable, resilient, and secure.

This report summarises our activities and achievements in 2025. I hope you find it informative and inspiring.

The ongoing success of the 4E TCP rests on the unwavering support of its members. I extend my sincere gratitude to member countries and stakeholders for their dedication to advancing global energy efficiency. Together, we can continue driving progress towards a sustainable, secure, and energy-efficient future.

The Role played by 4E

Governments around the world place high priority on ensuring that energy is accessible, secure, affordable and sustainable. A crucial part of meeting this challenge is improving energy efficiency, which remains one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to strengthen energy security, lower costs and reduce emissions.

4E aims to promote energy efficiency as the key to ensuring safe, reliable, affordable and sustainable energy systems.

Vision

4E’s vision is to see products and systems optimised to accelerate the transition to a safe, reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy future

Mission

4E engages with member governments to promote improved and innovative energy efficiency policy as the key to ensuring, reliable, affordable and sustainable energy systems. 4E is an international platform for collaboration that harnesses the expertise of governments, industry, experts and other organisations focused on the development and deployment of energy efficient equipment and systems within all non-transport sectors.

Overview of 4E Structure and Activities

Executive Committee

4E is managed by an Executive Committee (ExCo) comprising one voting delegate from each of the 15 Members.

The ExCo manages the work programme of 4E, including the dissemination of 4E’s research results. Secretariat functions for the ExCo are provided by the Programme Manager, funded by annual membership fees.

Since the start of the fourth 4E term, the ExCo now meets every 4-5 months, alternating between a physical in-person ExCo meeting and shorter online ExCo meeting. Making use of online meetings was done to reduce transport CO2 emissions and costs to members.

Since March 2024, Thore Stenfeldt (Denmark) has been the 4E Chair, for a term of two years. At the same time, Hans-Paul Siderius (Netherlands), Brian Fitzgerald (New Zealand), Ashley Armstrong (United States) and Laura Gritt (United Kingdom) were approved as 4E Vice-Chairs for a two-year period.

The 34th ExCo meeting of the ExCo was held in Copenhagen, Denmark in May 2025. An interim online ExCo meeting was held in September 2025. A full list of the 15 Members of the ExCo during 2025 is shown in Attachment 1.

Platforms

Platforms provide a mechanism for collaborative research amongst 4E Members on key technologies or topics.

Platform managers are paid to manage and coordinate the platforms on behalf of the members. The 4E structure is show below, and this highlights the four current 4E Platforms.

Reports on all currently operating Platforms are included later in this report.

Energy efficiency is the fastest, most affordable and most equitable way to cut emissions while improving lives.

4E Tasks

4E Tasks are developed and funded by the Executive Committee to assist the development and implementation of policies for energy efficient
end-use equipment.

These research activities cover a wide range of technologies and cross-cutting issues and benefit from the collective insights provided by all 4E Members.

During 2025, the notable achievements of the some prominent 4E Tasks are illustrated on the following pages

Product Energy Efficiency Trends (PEET)

The PEET Task assists 4E Members to understand the performance of products across economies and regions and over time.

This task does this by examining the scope and stringency of regulatory policies within 4E economies and using crawling technology to scan product offered for sale on websites.

Regular PEET workshops enable policy-makers and regulators to conduct deep dives into the scope, test methods and stringency of national regulations to understand the national variations and potential for closer alignment. It also facilitates the transference of innovative policy approaches between regions, speeding up the implementation of effective policies.

4E Members covered the following topics:

  • Large industrial fans (Copenhagen, May 2025)
  • Air compressors (Tokyo, March 2026)
  • Private swimming pool-related equipment (Tokyo, March 2026)
  • Policy status review of key product (report)

    Note – average USD exchange rates used

Whilst government policy may aim to increase energy efficiency to benefit its citizens, environment, and business, any increase in the initial purchase prices can be problematic, thus important to understand.

The 4E has been looking at obtaining information on prices for products sold online, to obtain real time prices being offered to consumers. The latest runs were complete in 2025.

Analysis of the data yields straightforward descriptive statistics on online sales — including purchase price, energy efficiency, and product features such as size — and also supports more sophisticated investigation. For instance, the dataset has supported linear regression analysis to quantify the influence of size, efficiency, and brand on product purchase price.

Note – using averaged Q3 2025 USD exchange rate

To complement PEET activities, the 4E TCP undertook other activity in 2025, including commencement of new research on the affordability of residential appliances. The Programme also continues its work on sharing information between members regarding monitoring, verification and enforcement (MV&E) — including a new analysis of compliance with MEPS and labelling requirements for online sales.

Co-ordination with IEA and other organisations

As one of nearly 40 Technology Collaboration Programmes (TCPs) established under the framework of the International Energy Agency (IEA), the 4E TCP has a particularly close relationship with the IEA Secretariat and other TCPs.

The collaborative activities of 4E in 2025 included:

  • 4E’s webinars being held in partnership with the IEA.
  • 4E contributions to the IEA flagship publication ‘Energy Efficiency 2025’
  • 4E support for three new TCP coordination groups, including one on Heat Pumps, Demand Flexibility, and the renewed Building Co-ordination group.
  • The IEA’s Office of Energy Efficiency provides a report to each meeting of the 4E Executive Committee and participates in discussions at these meetings.

Intergovernmental and Standardisation Organisations

4E engages continuously with a range of intergovern-mental organisations, including but not limited to:
  • The Energy Efficiency Hub – particularly the Digitalisation Working Group
  • The Clean Energy Ministerial – primarily through the IEA and SEAD
  • The Super-Efficient Equipment and Appliances Deployment (SEAD)
  • United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) particularly through United for Efficiency (U4E)
  • International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO), especially on motor and lighting related topics.
4E EMSA continues to work with the Joint Advisory Group ISO & IEC JAG 22 and with the IEC Advisory Group on Energy Efficiency (ACEE), both dedicated to advising, guide and co-ordinate activities on energy efficiency standardisation. 4E EMSA successfully completed a European Motor Renovation Initiative (EU-MORE), exploring opportunities for the replacement of inefficient motors.

Industry and Academia

4E has extensive contact with a variety of industry organisations and companies. 4E runs workshops to gain industry input to 4E’s work. These tend to focus on private sector companies related to its workstreams, such as suppliers of motor systems, solid state lighting, power electronics, ICT equipment and air conditioning.

Depending on the topic, we may also seek industry comments on our published materials or conduct formal consultation processes. 4E Members also participate in many formal standardisation processes, contributing to the results of work undertaken by 4E, which has often been commissioned specially to inform standards development.

Some of 4E’s Platforms have specific advisory groups formed from academia and relevant industries. For example, given the growing focus on data centre energy efficiency, EDNA established an Industry Advisory Group for regular exchanges on priority topics.

Platform Achievements in 2025

The following pages shows the key achievements of the four 4E TCP platforms

EMSA provides guidance, recommendations and research to its members and others on improving the energy efficiency of electric motor driven systems in industry.

In 2025, EMSA concluded its international round robin testing programme of small, packaged air compressors and launched a new project ‘Future of advancing electric motor systems’ efficiency’.

EMSA continues to coordinate and advance energy efficiency and testing standards while providing related calculation tools. This work lays the groundwork for designing and implementing effective policies through evidence-based research, the exchange of information and experience, and awareness raising.

EMSA complements the work of national regulators, international standardisation organisations, non-governmental organisations, and relevant initiatives in the field by addressing topics of interest not researched in detail by others, or by contributing the specific knowledge of EMSA experts.In early 2026, EMSA looked back at the past 15 years of motor system efficiency, how this evolved and how EMSA has contributed to it. Experience shows that collaboration across governments, industry and experts—supported by sound analysis, aligned standards and practical tools—can help improve the efficiency of electric motor systems. EMSA has contributed to this shared learning by providing evidence, guidance and platforms for exchange, supporting ongoing efforts to improve policies, standards and real-world outcomes worldwide.

Major Achievements During 2025

EMSA concluded an international round robin testing programme of small, packaged air compressors, which has run since 2022. A report with the results of the round robin as well as a guide for measuring specific energy and isentropic efficiency of packaged air compressors in line with ISO 1217:2009 and Amendment 1:2016 were published. The EMSA CompressorCalc calculation tool for the stepwise calculation of isentropic efficiency, is also available.

EMSA published on its website a world map showing the status of MEPS worldwide, for motors and VSDs. This is complemented with an overview of the related standards, and the underlying national sources.

The results of EMSA’s international round robin testing programme of Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) were referenced in the review study of the European EU Ecodesign Regulation (EU) 2019/1781 that sets minimum energy performance standards for electric motors and VSDs. The EMSA round robin for Variable Speed Drives ran between 2017 and 2022 and is the first publicly available independent study that has systematically examined the efficiency of VSDs.

EMSA launched a new project ‘Future of advancing electric motor systems’ efficiency’. The scope covers the analysis of potential metrics and/or requirements, monitoring and policy instruments to advance system level optimisation of new and existing electric motor systems.

EMSA in collaboration with PECTA drew up a wide bandgap industrial Variable Speed Drives Research Roadmap, with research questions aiming to address the barriers to the adoption of Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) for industrial Variable Speed Drives. A joint EMSA-PECTA Policy Brief was published, which is the first ever joint Policy Brief across two 4E Platforms.

EMSA published a new Policy Brief on the importance of electric motor systems worldwide, estimating their share in electricity consumption across sectors.

EMSA updated the world map showing the status of MEPS worldwide, for motors and VSDs according to evolving regulations throughout the year.

EMSA works within IEC’s ACEE and ISO/IEC JAG22 on harmonisation and further alignment of energy efficiency standardisation for systems. ACEE’s Guide 118 Ed.2 assists standard makers in applying a systems approach into their standards.

The SSLC Platform conducts research and provides data analysis that is highly relevant for regulatory processes in several countries, as well as international standardisation work in which several member governments are engaged.

The SSLC Platform has seven active Members working across eight tasks in the workplan.

Globally, lighting accounts for approximately 12 percent of end-use electricity, and solid-state lighting (SSL) and controls have the potential to reduce that consumption by 50% or more. The policy-focused work of the Smart Sustainability in Lighting and Controls (SSLC) Platform covers four critical areas:

1. SSL product quality and performance;

2. SSL testing, metrics and standards;

3. Public health, productivity and environmental impacts; and

4. Smart lighting, digitalisation and connectivity.

The collaborative work of the SSLC Platform ensures that member governments can undertake efforts that have bigger impact than any individual member government could achieve on their own. This includes time, resources, information exchange and knowledge transfer. The SSLC Platform’s work is primarily conducted through in-kind contributions from member country’s national Experts. The quality of the outcomes is enhanced through the international collaborative work of these national Experts, enhanced by three-day in-person meetings every six months.

Major Achievements During 2025

Temporal Light Modulation (TLM) Interlaboratory Comparison (The Interlaboratory Comparison Task (IC 2023)): Commonly known as “flicker”, government policies are setting limits on TLM. IC 2023 works to support laboratories getting accredited for the TLM metrics. Approximately two-thirds of the participants in IC 2023 failed to meet acceptable levels of measurement accuracy, largely due to the “noisy” laboratory power supplies affecting the measurements. Without the IC 2023, this power supply problem would most likely have remained unknown, with inaccurate measurements of PstLM. This is one of the TLM metrics, and is regulated in Australia. PstLM is a regulated metric in Australia, the EU, the United Kingdom and other national lighting efficiency requirements around the world. Research findings have been shared with international bodies (IEC, IES and CIE). Individual lab test reports were issued that can be used for labs applying for accreditation. The final report will be published in May 2026.

Health Effects of Solid-State Lighting: Building on the SSLC health and lighting report published in October 2025, the Platform has now launched the ‘Targeting Well-being in Illumination by neutralising Kinetic Light Effects’ (TWINKLE) project. This seeks to conduct research on human subjects to identify a safe threshold value for temporal light modulation. The 28-month research project includes external labs from universities and industry. A journal paper on the TWINKLE test methodology is being prepared for publication, and the project recently received ethical approval and research funding in France. The SSLC Platform’s work is designed to study that interface of health and lighting and develop and improve metrics that can be used by policymakers to protect the public from poor quality lights that can affect health.

Continued interaction with global standardisation bodies and industry: The SSLC Platform Experts continued to publish scientific papers and engage with the standardisation community and industry. This interaction is important as it helps to ensure standards are useful and relevant for regulatory policies around the world. Experts presented at the CIE major biannual conference in Austria in June and published a paper on our research. Two of our Experts also convened a national CIE chapter lighting event in Australia in late January which highlighted some of the Platform’s work. In October 2025, one of our Experts, Dr. Yoshi Ohno, was awarded the Global SSL Award of Outstanding Achievement for 2025 by the International Solid-State Lighting Alliance in China.

The EDNA platform provides analysis and policy guidance to member and partner governments with the aim of improving the energy efficiency and demand flexibility of connected appliances and networks.

Connected devices play an increasingly important role in empowering consumers to respond dynamically to grid requirements — for instance, by adjusting power consumption in line with energy generation patterns or local demand constraints. The widespread deployment of such appliances is considered essential to achieving a secure and resilient energy grid; their capacity to reduce reliance on costly energy storage solutions represents a significant and tangible benefit. This also reduces the need for additional power generation. Accelerating the adoption of demand-flexible appliances is therefore expected to hasten the clean energy transition and contribute to lowering its overall cost.

In response to government priorities, EDNA also continued its intensive programme of work on the energy efficiency of data centres

Collaboration with external organisations continues to be highly valued, and outputs from such partnerships are integral to EDNA’s work.

*(until November 2025)

Major Achievements During 2025

The second year of the 4th term saw significant progress across two major workstreams: one focused on demand flexible networked appliances and a newly established workstream dedicated to data centres.

The demand flexible networked appliances workstream produced a suite of major reports in 2025, covering a product policy framework for demand side flexibility through international case studies, residential home energy management systems and controllers, advancing the energy efficiency of home energy storage systems, and an overview of flexibility platforms.

The demand flexible networked appliances workstream produced a suite of major reports in 2025, covering a product policy framework for demand side flexibility through international case studies, residential home energy management systems and controllers, advancing the energy efficiency of home energy storage systems, and an overview of flexibility platforms.

In collaboration with the Users TCP, a joint report was published examining the flexibility potential of electric vehicles and heat pumps, exploring the interplay between technology, economics, regulation, behaviour and policy.

The new data centres workstream made a strong start, delivering foundational research including the Total Energy Model 4.0 focused on data centres, a study on the energy efficiency of servers, and a critical review of models and results relating to data centre energy use. This workstream was further supported by a stakeholder workshop held in Copenhagen, bringing together industry and government representatives, alongside the establishment of a new EDNA Data Centre Expert Group.

Beyond these outputs, numerous additional tasks were initiated across both of EDNA’s major workstreams during the year.

Power electronic conversion stages are integral to virtually every electrical energy conversion process, ranging from charging a mobile phone or an electric vehicle, to powering data centres, to delivering solar energy into the grid.

The efficiency of these power electronic conversions has been transformed by the availability of wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs and gallium nitride (GaN) transistors. WBG devices enable higher switching frequencies, lower conduction losses, and more compact system designs, unlocking efficiency gains across a broad range of applications.

The Power Electronics Conversion Technology Platform (PECTA), operating under the IEA 4E Technology Collaboration Programme, was established in 2019 as the only international, government-backed initiative dedicated to bridging the gap between these technological advances and energy efficiency policy. With five participating members and a network of over 50 experts from industry and academia spanning more than 12 countries, PECTA provides policymakers with independent, evidence-based assessments of WBG technology’s potential.

PECTA’s research has quantified the global energy savings opportunity at over 130 TWh per year from WBG adoption in applications including motor drives, PV inverters, data centres, and consumer chargers, a figure projected to grow substantially as electrification accelerates. Beyond energy efficiency, PECTA has broadened its scope to address sustainability aspects, including life cycle analysis, critical raw-material dependencies, and circular-economy considerations in power electronics.

Platform Participants

Major Achievements During 2025

Policy Briefs and key publications: PECTA released several high-impact publications in 2025, including three Policy Briefs targeting policymakers and the public:

  • the Application Readiness Map (ARM) for WBG Semiconductors,
  • a joint Policy Brief with EMSA on WBG Industrial Variable Speed Drives, and
  • a Policy Brief on Circular Economy-Compatible Power Electronics and New Application Areas.

The ARM update, which maps WBG device readiness across applications, provides policymakers with a practical tool to time regulatory interventions effectively. These publications directly support 4E’s mission to provide evidence-based guidance for energy-efficiency policy.

Broadening sustainability scope: With the publication of the Circular Economy Policy Brief, PECTA expanded its work beyond energy efficiency to address the full environmental footprint of power electronics. This includes considerations around life-cycle impacts and circular design principles, reinforcing PECTA’s role in supporting a broader sustainability perspective within the 4E framework. In addition, the groundwork has been laid for two projects in the field of circular economy power electronics in 2026.

Continued dissemination and academic outreach: PECTA maintained active dissemination through a dedicated newsletter, a conference paper on wireless charger no-load energy consumption presented at the e-nova international conference in Pinkafeld, Austria, and an integrated content in a lecture at TU Leoben. These activities help ensure that PECTA’s findings reach both academic and industry audiences.

Preparation of the 2026 PECTA Experts Workshop: Throughout 2025, PECTA prepared its flagship Experts Workshop, held in February 2026 in Vienna, bringing together academia, industry, policymakers, and stakeholders for dedicated sessions on WBG readiness, reliability, circular economy, and regulatory developments. This event represents a key milestone in PECTA’s dissemination strategy.

4E Outreach and Communication

In addition to providing an exclusive members forum, the 4E also uses a range of channels to reach an external audience. Outreach activities include technical reports, webinars, workshops, 2-page policy briefs and newsletters.

4E TCP Finances

In 2025, total expenditure on 4E TCP activities is approximately EUR 1.5 million, broadly consistent with 2024 levels and reflecting a stable base of resourcing across the Programme’s workstreams and platforms.

4E activities are made possible through the contributions of member countries: taking the form of annual fees and substantial in-kind work by national experts. In 2025, the annual fees of the 15 Members funded 50% of the total expenditure.

Research activities accounted for most of the expenditure in 2025, reinforcing the Programme’s core mission. Communication represented approximately 23% of funding, while administration and financial management accounted for just 6% — broadly consistent with the previous year.

4E membership fees, 2025

ExCo and Platform annual membership fees are set according to the agreed annual work porgramme and therfore may vary from year to year. However, apart from SSLC in 2024, the individual annual members fees have not changed since 2016 are considered by exsiting members to represent excellent value for money.

About the
International Energy Agency (IEA)

The IEA is at the heart of global dialogue on energy, providing authoritative analysis, data, policy recommendations, and real-world solutions to help countries provide secure and sustainable energy for all.

The IEA was created in 1974 to help co-ordinate a collective response to major disruptions in the supply of oil. While oil security remains a key aspect of their work, the IEA has evolved and expanded significantly since its foundation.

Taking an all-fuels, all-technology approach, the IEA advocates policies that enhance the reliability, affordability and sustainability of energy. It examines the full spectrum of issues including renewables, oil, gas and coal supply and demand, energy efficiency, clean energy technologies, electricity systems and markets, access to energy, demand-side management, and much more.

Since 2015, the IEA has opened its doors to major emerging countries to expand its global impact, and deepen cooperation in energy security, data and statistics, energy policy analysis, energy efficiency, and the growing use of clean energy technologies.

IEA Technology Collaboration Programmes

The Technology Collaboration Programme (TCP) is a multilateral mechanism established by the International Energy Agency that was created with a belief that the future of energy security and sustainability starts with global collaboration. The programme is made up of thousands of experts across government, academia and industry in 55 countries dedicated to advancing common research and the application of specific energy technologies.

Currently there are 38 individual technology collaborations working across several technology or sector categories: energy efficiency end-use technologies (buildings, transport, industry and electricity), renewable energy and hydrogen, fossil energies, fusion power, and cross-cutting issues. These technology collaborations are a critical, member-driven part of the IEA family, but they are functionally and legally autonomous from the IEA Secretariat. The breadth of the analytical expertise in the Technology Collaboration Programme is a unique asset in the global transition to a cleaner energy future.
