About

The World Energy Efficiency Association grew out of a 1992 initiative of the Atlantic Council of the United States which brought together a diverse group of over ninety world energy experts to study how to improve the effectiveness of energy technology cooperation, transfer efforts and programs.

The group's final report stressed the need for an international mechanism, such as the World Energy Efficiency Association, to assist developing and reindustrializing countries in accessing information on energy efficiency.

Since 1993, WEEA has assisted developing countries in accessing information on energy efficiency, served as a clearinghouse for information on energy efficiency programs, technologies and measures, publicized international cooperation efforts in energy efficiency and disseminated this information worldwide.

The organization continues its efforts in meeting the goals with which it was charged in 1993.
