| Project Rationale | Improving energy efficiency and energy productivity are key components of Pakistan's energy strategy. Reducing unproductive and volatile demand will result in immediate energy savings. Lower energy intensity will boost energy access and meet social development goals, and reduce carbon emissions and meet climate change adaptation goals. Energy productive Pakistan will be more competitive in the global economy. Pakistan is determined to pursue a sustained long-term plan to optimize the energy mix and consumption across all sectors of the eonomy.
The Government has an existing policy framework for energy efficiency. Achieving energy security and energy affordability are two main goals set in the Vision 2030 and the Medium-Term Development Framework of Pakistan. The National Energy Conservation Policy was adopted in 2006. It defines the energy efficiency objectives and cross-sector implementation parameters. |
