IIEC Delivers Energy Audit Training in the Pacific
Under the Promoting Energy Efficiency in the Pacific – Phase 2 (PEEP2) Project, funded by the Asian Development Bank, the International Institute for Energy Conservation (IIEC) is tasked with the development and conduct of energy audit training programs for local experts in each of the Pacific Developing Member Countries (PDMCs) covered under PEEP2 - Cook Islands, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Tonga and Vanuatu.
The overall objective of the training program is to build capacity of local professionals with the necessary energy auditing skill sets enabling them to provide continuous support to the government departments, building owners, industries and households.Therefore, in addition to the walk-through energy audit training conducted in 2012, IIEC will be carrying out a series of detailed energy audit training workshops from July 2013 to April 2014 in the 5 PDMCs. The first workshops will focus on Module 1 (Walk-Through Energy Audit), and Module 2 (Technical and Financial Evaluation). The second workshops will focus on Module 3 (Contracting, Project Management, and Measurement & Verification of Energy Efficiency Projects) and Module 4 (Detailed Energy Audit – Investment Grade Audit).The Module 1 and 2 workshops were already successfully held from July to October 2013 in the five PDMCs, as shown in the photographs below. The workshops were kindly supported by the PEEP2 implementing agencies in each respective country.
