Abstract

World energy consumption rates vary among different sectors and the building sector accounts for 40% of the world's energy consumption annually, and due to the high world energy consumption rates, various efforts have been made to develop policies to promote energy efficiency in the world, and from wich this study aims to provide an overview of policies and measures to promote energy efficiency in the world, focusing on the situation of Algeria by adopting a descriptive analytical approach based on a set of documents issued by the Algerian government agencies, such as the Ministry of Energy, the National Agency for the Conservation and Promotion of Energy Use, by analysing the energy efficiency policy adopted by Algeria to achieve the objectives of sustainable development. The study concluded that there are many obstacles that stand in the development of energy efficiency in the buildings sector, and that Algeria should exert more efforts for real and effective implementation of the listed programs.
