Project Context, Objectives and Description
Most recent data available indicates that the primary energy intensity level in Lao PDR regressed by 72.3% between 2010 and 2015 due to, among others, limited information on energy consumption patterns, lack of public or private sector capacity for energy efficiency planning and implementation, limited regulatory framework, and low level of understanding of the benefits of energy efficiency.
This Readiness proposal has been prepared to help the Government of Lao PDR implement the National Green Growth Strategy and achieve the energy consumption reduction target. It consists of developing a comprehensive set of activities to increase levels of awareness about green industrial practices and catalyze private investments in the deployment of energy efficiency measures in the industrial sector. The project deliverables comprise:
- An effective stakeholder coordination mechanism.
- Lao PDR’s industrial energy efficiency policy guidelines and action plan.
- A training program for the development of local energy services companies (ESCOs) and auditing skills.
- At least 25 energy audits, technology options assessment and financial models completed across the industrial sectors.
- An Information Memorandum and an investor forum which will highlight identified energy efficiency investment opportunities and match private and public enterprises in the industrial sector with investors and financiers.
- A GCF concept note on industrial energy efficiency investment through ESCO delivery model.
The program aims to coordinate and engage stakeholders including the domestic private sector to catalyze investments in the deployment of energy efficiency measuresin large, medium and small industrial enterprises. The program will also address policy gaps, remove identified investment barriers, and develop a quality project concept note for submission to the GCF.
