This study brings together existing literature on the policies and programs implemented across APEC, targeting energy efficiency in the industrial sector. This research has then been supplemented and brought up to date through a survey of APEC member economies.

This survey was distributed to all APEC member economies, nine of which responded providing specific information on the programs and policies implemented in their economy, benchmarking activities, and case studies of policies and programs that have been particularly effective in improving energy efficiency.
