Progress has always relied on changes in perspective. Today, we must realise what is blocking prosperity: old ideas that don’t work for today’s world. Two-thirds of the energy used is wasted. 4.6 trillion dollars every year. This translates into shrinking margins for companies, rising bills for households with less comfort, and increasing pressure on both sovereignty and sustainability.

At COP30 in Belém, the Solar Impulse Foundation comes with one clear mission: to prove that efficiency is the most powerful lever for climate action.

Through strategic collaborations and evidence-based innovation, we’re scaling up clean, profitable solutions that deliver tangible results. Among our key initiatives is the joint publication with the European Commission, ENERGY €FFICI€NCY: The Silent Money Maker, a showcase of real-world success stories where efficiency drives savings, and innovative financial mechanisms power growth. Together with UNEP and the GlobalABC, we’re advancing the Catalogue of Climate Solutions for Buildings, a practical roadmap to reduce emissions in one of the world’s most resource-intensive sectors.

In Belém, we’re not just presenting solutions; we’re forging the connections that will make them the global standard.

Effizienz in Aktion: Der stille Motor der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit

Energy efficiency has long been called the “first fuel” of the transition - but in practice, it remains the most undervalued. While efficiency could deliver over 40% of the emissions reductions needed to reach net zero, investments are still falling short, even though they offer the highest return per euro spent.

At COP30, where attention will focus on implementation and industrial decarbonisation, this session will bring efficiency to the forefront - not as an abstract policy goal, but as a proven engine of competitiveness. The event, co-hosted with the Energy Efficiency Movement, will highlight concrete examples from leading companies and financiers showing how efficiency cuts costs, creates jobs, strengthens supply-chain resilience, and can be a bankable investment, while driving measurable emission reductions.

Through two linked dialogues - one on deployment and one on finance - the session will show that the solutions already exist, and that scaling them is a question of structure, not technology.
