European Energy Efficiency Conference

Geopolitical instabilities, high energy prices and growing global competition make one thing clear: Europe must urgently increase its energy independence.

Energy efficiency is a key asset in this transformation: It reduces energy demand, stabilises prices and makes Europe more resilient. The European Energy Efficiency Conference 2026 presents policies, technologies and business models which increase competitiveness and make energy more affordable. The event is part of the annual World Sustainable Energy Days (WSED), a leading conference on the energy transition and climate neutrality in total with over 650 participants from more than 60 countries.
