Training & Capacity Building
{jb_greenbox}Pacific Islands
Under the Promoting Energy Efficiency in the
Pacific - Phase II (PEEP II) Project, IIEC conducted a
training program to support the development of EE
projects in five Pacific Island Countries: the Cook
Islands; Papua New Guinea; Samoa; Tonga; and
Vanuatu. The training modules covered energy auditing,
financial analysis, measurement and verification
(M&V), contracting, marketing, and project management.
Energy Audit Training in Samoa
Vietnam
IIEC conducted several training programs in
Vietnam covering the commercial, industrial and
Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) sectors with
funding from the World Bank, UNDP and ADB. A
four-year program titled Commercial EE Pilot
Program (CEEP) focused on the private sector
(ESCOs, financial institutions and equipment suppliers)
and EE project development, resulting in the
implementation of 205 EE projects. In the industrial
sector, the training focused on energy management
practices for senior and middle management and
investment-grade energy audits. In the SME sector,
training was provided to potential ESCOs and
energy efficient equipment suppliers.

Lao PDR
As a part of the World Bank funded Demand-Side
Management and Energy Efficiency (DSM/EE)
Project, IIEC conducted an advanced energy audit
training program for DSM staff and energy coordinators
at Electricite du Laos (EdL), and prepared a professional
development program for EdL staff.
Advanced Energy Audit Training in Lao PDR
Kenya
IIEC delivered a detailed introductory and technical
training on Standards and Labeling (S&L) to key
implementers in Kenya. This project was part of the
national S&L Programme, which was a 5-year
initiative designed to remove barriers to market
transformation of energy efficient products and
services in Kenya. The program was funded by
UNDP and supported by the Ministry of Industrialization
and Enterprise Development.The training
covered testing procedures, performance standards
and certification for CFLs and fluorescent
tubes, domestic and commercial refrigerators, air
conditioners, and three-phase electric induction
motors.
S&L Training in Kenya
Lebanon
For the Lebanese Center for Energy Conservation (LCEC) Project on Capacity Building of ESCOs,
funded by UNDP, IIEC designed, developed and conducted training modules on EE project financial
analysis and evaluation. The training materials included the development of an automated spreadsheet
for the financial projection of project cash flow, income and balance sheet statements tailored for the
Lebanese economy.
