Abstract: This paper discusses a crucial topic that has emerged in the policy and economic literature in recent years: the potential role of energy efficiency in the current energy transformation process. It provides a straightforward analysis to explore the prominent role that building energy efficiency may play in shaping the energy transition and sustainability path. The focus of the investigation is the energy efficiency initiatives in Saudi Arabia, as an example of an economy very concerned by and very proactive in terms of efforts to boosting its energy transition. From a policy perspective, the paper emphasizes the importance of accelerating the decarbonization process in the building sector and suggests ways to consider a holistic view of energy efficiency policies in the building sector.
