Project Objective: Development of Project Brief and UNDP Project Document for the Full Project.

The full project’s strategy will address capacity and awareness issues amongst local authorities and state enterprises by building a center of expertise (Energy Center), to provide information and consulting services, and training to local authorities and enterprise employees in energy efficiency. The Energy Center will support the state sector efforts to identify and realize energy efficiency opportunities in the DH&CHP sector, including the utilization of concessional financing opportunities being offered by central government and local bank loans. In addition to building awareness the project plans to create momentum amongst local government for investment in energy efficiency by designing and testing employee bonuses for realizing energy efficiency and institutional incentives by enabling municipalities to retain some or all of the savings they make from energy efficiency investments.
