Description:
Energy-efficiency improvements
Since 1996, a demand side management (DSM) programme in the Ukraine has successfully demonstrated low-cost energy-efficiency measures. They were put in place in residential and public buildings by ARENA-ECO, a localnon-governmental organisation. Support came from the Swiss Agency for evelopment and Co-operation and the US Department of energy. The projects offered high returns in emissions reductions and helped Ukrainian customers with the high and increasing cost of energy.
The project demonstrated the feasibility of a package of low-cost energy efficiency investments and a financing arrangement tailored to local conditions. The demonstration project showed energy savings on the order of 25% from low-cost measures alone.
