Urban Climate Neutrality (Zambia)
The project in Zambia is designed to support the country’s transition to a more sustainable and energy-efficient future, aligning with its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), National Adaptation Plan, and Green Growth Strategy. A series of energy audits will be conducted in various public buildings across Lusaka, including schools, hospitals, and universities, to assess baseline energy consumption. The audits will identify […]

Urban Climate Neutrality (Mauritius)
As a Small Island Developing State, Mauritius is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and faces significant energy challenges due to its dependence on imported fossil fuels. Recognizing the urgent need for sustainable solutions, the Mauritian government outlined ambitious energy efficiency targets in its 2021-2022 budget speech, aiming to reduce energy consumption by 10% by 2030. In support […]

Urban Climate Neutrality (Vietnam)
Why Vietnam? Vietnam’s rapid urbanization and economic growth are significantly increasing cooling demand in cities, leading to a surge in power consumption and refrigerant use. This trend is projected to raise emissions from cooling from 34 MTCO2.eq in 2017 to 81 MTCO2.eq by 2030. Furthermore, the urban heat island effect (UHIE) is intensifying as cities replace natural land cover with […]

Urban Climate Neutrality (Argentina)
We recently developed a comprehensive training program through the Argentine Network of Municipalities Facing Climate Change (RAMCC) aimed at municipalities, focusing on the critical importance of implementing energy efficiency measures in buildings. This training not only highlights the benefits of energy efficiency in reducing carbon emissions and improving sustainability but also provides hands-on guidance on how to effectively use the […]

Urban Climate Neutrality (Kenya)
Most of the over 3,000 secondary boarding schools in Kenya currently rely on outdated incandescent bulbs for lighting, which significantly contributes to their electricity expenses—often accounting for more than half of their total bills. This inadequate lighting not only impacts the schools’ operational costs but also adversely affects the health and educational outcomes of the students. In response to this […]

Urban Climate Neutrality (India)
WHY India? By 2050, space cooling in India could be responsible for ~1.1GtCO2.eq/yr and consume 28% of total electricity demand and 44% of peak load. Demand for space cooling will be concentrated in India’s rapidly growing cities driving power shortages and rising urban temperatures. The scaling-up of ongoing national and state-level programs for power sector decarbonization, minimum energy performance standards […]
