Abstract: Substantial international cooperation will be required to meet the challenges of the 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate change and UN 2030 Sustainability Goals. International standards can be an important tool for providing structure and guidance in rapidly evolving energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy (RE) markets, thus improving their positive effect on global climate and energy access goals.
