Partnership
The Solar Heating and Cooling Programme was established in 1977, one of the first programmes of the International Energy Agency. Its work is accomplished through the international collaborative effort of experts from country members, sponsor members and the European Union.
Through multi-disciplinary international collaborative research and knowledge exchange, as well as market and policy recommendations, the Solar Heating and Cooling Programme works to increase the deployment rate of solar heating and cooling systems by breaking down the technical and non-technical barriers to increase deployment.
