The project objective is the promotion and facilitation of the widespread application of building energy efficiency technologies and practices in commercial buildings in Thailand. The project impact is to reduce 23.3 kton of direct CO2 emissions during the project implementation period and 1,630 kton of indirect CO2 emissions from the Thai commercial building sector. It includes demonstration of energy efficiency measures in nine large commercial buildings such as office buildings, hotels, hypermarkets and hospitals.

The Mainstreaming Energy Efficiency Measures in Thai Municipalities (MEET) Project is designed to improve Thailand’s energy security and decrease the rate of greenhouse gas emissions by promoting energy efficiency (EE) initiatives in Thai municipalities. A key outcome of the MEET project will be the strengthened capacity of PEA and municipalities to identify, design, finance, and implement EE measures.
IIEC worked with more than 20 local energy efficiency companies in Thailand to support the founding of the Energy Efficiency Development Association. This energy association aims to stimulate the utilization of the US$500 million Energy Conservation Promotion Fund of Thailand in various feasible energy efficiency and renewable energy projects. The association also aims to facilitate an effective enforcement of the Energy Conservation Promotions Act of 1992.
The objective of this project is to conduct a process and impact evaluation of Thailand’s six-year, US$190 million demand-side management program which is the first comprehensive program implemented in Asia. The extent of the evaluation program involves determining customer attitudes and the satisfaction of manufacturers and distributors of air conditioner, refrigerator, compact fluorescent lamps, and thin tube fluorescent lamps.
IIEC collaborated with the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) in developing sustainable electricity sector options for Thailand. This project assesses the viability of different energy options for meeting Thailand’s future electricity requirements. It includes a comparative analysis of different energy scenarios in terms of costs, environmental externalities, and other impacts and issues.
