Center for Energy Efficiency - XXI

The Center for Energy Efficiency - XXI (CENEF-XXI, Russian: ЦЭНЭФ-XXI) is a Russian consultancy and research organization focused on energy efficiency, greenhouse-gas emissions and climate policy. It is described in public reference data as a Russian energy efficiency consultancy organization. Its work spans analysis of long-term prospects and the construction of scenarios for the dynamics of greenhouse-gas emissions across all sectors of the economy, as well as benchmarking of the energy efficiency and carbon intensity of power generation. The organization publishes analytical reports, books and articles aimed at policymakers, utilities and researchers. Its website presents an assessment report (Оценочный доклад), databases of forecasts, and studies such as a book on benchmarking the energy efficiency and carbon intensity of electricity generation at thermal power plants in the Russian Federation, prepared jointly with another research center and edited by I. A. Bashmakov. It also publishes materials on the energy sector, including articles on the future fuel mix of Russian electricity and on rapid assessment of the economic attractiveness of engineering infrastructure for power supply in isolated territories. CENEF-XXI maintains data and visualizations on the structure and dynamics of greenhouse-gas emissions in Russia, including series covering 1990–2018 by sector and in aggregate. It also addresses the public debate on climate change, for example with material on Russian myths and global climate science. The organization operates primarily in the Russian market and positions itself as an analytical and advisory center rather than a product manufacturer or utility.

The Center for Energy Efficiency - XXI (CENEF-XXI) is a Russian energy efficiency consultancy organization. Public reference data identifies it as such, and its own website presents it as an analytical center working on energy efficiency, greenhouse-gas emissions and climate policy in Russia. Its published output includes an assessment report (Оценочный доклад) and supporting publications, databases of forecasts, and studies on the energy sector. Among its documented works is a book on benchmarking the energy efficiency and carbon intensity of electricity generation at thermal power plants in the Russian Federation, prepared jointly with another research center and edited by I. A. Bashmakov. The organization also publishes articles on the future of Russian electricity generation and on the economics of engineering infrastructure for power supply in isolated territories. CENEF-XXI maintains data series and visualizations on the structure and dynamics of greenhouse-gas emissions in Russia, including sectoral and aggregate series for 1990–2018. It also engages in public communication on climate change, including material addressing Russian myths and global climate science. The organization operates in the Russian market and continues to publish analytical materials, with website content dated to 2025.
