International Partnership For Energy Efficiency Cooperation
The International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC) is a high-level international forum which includes developed and developing countries. Its purpose is to enhance global cooperation in the field of energy efficiency (EE) and to facilitate policies that yield energy efficiency gains across all sectors globally. Its foundation in May 2009 represents a key milestone in the improvement of energy efficiency, generally referred to as the use of the least amount of energy per unit of production and/or population.
The IPEEC promotes energy efficiency worldwide by exchanging information related to energy efficiency, developing partnerships between energy efficiency actors and supporting energy efficient initiatives. IPEEC supported initiatives are open to both member and non-member nations as well as the private sector.

“Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests.

—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

—Baruch (Benedict)

—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
