Energy Conservation & Energy Efficiency (EC&EE) is
cheap, quick, and relatively painless way for most
developing countries to slash energy costs, stretch energy
supplies, and save foreign exchange. Energy Conservation
does not mean rationing and austerity rather, it aims at
increasing the efficiency of energy use through waste
reduction, fuel switching, and cogeneration of heat and
power. By producing more output with the same energy
cost input, Energy Conservation promotes economic
efficiency and improves the productivity and
competitiveness of energy consuming enterprises. In
addition, Energy Conservation will help the inevitable
transition to higher energy prices since this transition will be
easier for enterprises, which have reduced the energy
content of their goods. Energy Conservation is also an
excellent vehicle for promoting private sector development
and can alleviate both the growing shortages of power
supply and the capital constraints of building new
generating capacity and other energy production and
transformation units (e.g. petroleum refineries).
Furthermore, by decreasing energy use, Energy
Conservation reduces energy production requirements.
This mitigates the negative environmental impacts of
energy resources exploration, development, and
production. Energy Conservation also reduces the
atmospheric emissions from electric power plants, industrial
facilities, and motor vehicles. Finally, by reducing the
energy needs of economic growth and conserving
depletable energy resources, Energy Conservation
promotes sustainable and environmentally sound economic
growth and development.

Energy Conservation is an important element of Energy
Policy, which reduces the energy consumption and energy
energy demand per capita and thus offsets the growth in
energy supply and needs to keep up with population
growth. Energy Conservation (EC) is a movement to
resolve and to plug in all kind of inefficiencies and wastage
in all aspects of Energy Consumption. All sectors of
economy can conserve energy to the extent of 25% of total
importance of saving energy. The energy waste is common
factor amongst all sectors and this energy can be saved
with a little care and concern.

Need of Law
Looming energy crisis requires introduction of
legal instrument for EC promotion.

Vast windows of EC potential available to exploit.

Policy Comfort/support accountability must be in a
society likes ours.

EC legislation successfully being used in several
countries as a basic policy instrument for EC
promotion like India & Japan.

National Energy Conservation Policy (NECP)
requires an EC law to be promulgated.

Legislation necessary to discourage non-energy
efficiency practices.

The suggestions of provinces are also incorporated in the
Draft Bill. The draft bill was duly amended in the light of
comments received from stakeholders to meet present and
future country requirements. The re-drafted summary for
CCI and PEEC Bill has been forwarded to parent Ministry
for seeking approval/clearance of CCI before introduction of
the Bill in the Parliament for approval and promulgation.

















































OSRAM and National National Lighting Test Centre (China).
Components of the Project are as under:

Component 1: Development and implementation of a
National Efficient Lighting Strategy to phase-out inefficient
and obsolete lighting products.






Component 5: Establishment of a 3 million USD revolving
loan fund to assist in overcoming the financial barriers
having similar structure to the Energy Conservation Fund
(ECF), established under the UNDP/GEF funded Fuel
Efficiency in the Road Transport Sector (FERTS) Project
during 1996-2005.


MD ENERCON in a meeting with Chairman FBR & Member
customs proposed that certain amendments be made in the
SRO 575 so as to provide exemptions on the import of LED
lighting equipment irrespective of the source of energy and
related components not only to benefit importers but also
provide a substantial impetus to energy conservation
measures by reduction in cost of LED lights. Chairman FBR
& member custom assured to look into the proposed
amendment on priority basis.

Component 2: Creation of
Monitoring, Verification, &
Enforcement (MVE) capacities
to ensure an effective transition.

Component 3: Implementation
of environmentally sound
Management for lighting
products including: establishing
a collection scheme; recycling
facilities; and/or sound disposal
of hazardous waste from lighting
products.

Component 4: Promotion of
high performance, efficient
lighting products.

Electricity for lighting accounts for almost
20 per cent of global power consumption
and close to 6 per cent of worldwide
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

If a global transition to efficient lighting occurred, these
emissions could be reduced by half. Few actions could
reduce carbon emissions as cheaply and easily as the
phase-out of inefficient lighting, making it one of the most
effective and economically advantageous ways to combat
climate change.
The UNEP en.lighten
initiative has been est-
ablished to accelerate
global market transfor-
mation to environmen-
tally sustainable light-
ing technologies by
developing a coordinated global strategy and providing
technical support for the phase-out of inefficient lighting.
en.lighten Global Efficient Lighting Partnership Programme
was established in 2011. Nearly 50 developing and
emerging countries have joined. Pakistan is also a partner
and committed to take steps to phase out inefficient lamps
by end of 2016.
On 27th June, 2012 Pakistan joined en.lighten Global
Efficient Lighting Partnership Program. In 3rd Global
Environment Facility (GEF) National Steering Committee
meeting of Ministry of Climate Change, the committee
appreciated the concept and approved the project for
requested GEF funding but funding could be acquired either
from SCCF (if the project is targeting adaptation activities)
in GEF -5 or for GEF -6 Climate Change (mitigation)
allocation considering the national priorities at the time of
start of GEF-6. Over US $408 in annual savings could be
achieved and will result in 2 million tonnes annual reduction
of CO2 emissions. ENERCON is the executing partner
whereas the private sector partners include Philips,

INTEGRATED POLICY
APPROACH
Automotive sector is the major consumer of fuel worldwide, which
causes a negative impact on the environment. At the same time,
the sustainable supply of established fossil fuels cannot be
guaranteed forever. Immediate contingency is to conserve fuel
through its efficient consumption for the same distance travelled,
and thereby avoid fast degradation of environment.
At present the engine tune-up capabilities in the country are of
poor quality. The tune-up of engines is normally conducted
manually by informally trained mechanics that learn the trade
through on the job training process. They by and large rely on
subjective sensory clues and personal experience.

Such mechanics are also unaware of proper use of
computerized diagnostic equipment and engine tune-up
procedures.
National Energy Conservation Center (ENERCON)/Energy
Conservation Fund (ECF) therefore planned to conduct a
series of One Week Training Course(s) aimed at
providing training to auto-mechanics & automobile
engineers. A total of 133 participants were imparted
training and the courses were conducted in Karachi (17th -
21st December 2012), Lahore (24th -29th December
2012), Peshawar (31st December 2012- 4th January 2013)
& Rawalpindi (7th January-11th January 2013).The activity
is going to be repeated every year covering other major
cities of Pakistan as well.

ENERCON-ECF has partnered with Pakistan
Engineering Council (PEC) as Professional
Engineering Body (PEB) to impart CPD activities to the
engineers. Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC)
is working for professional growth and skill development
of engineers under its CPD (Continuous Professional
Development) Framework for international recognition
and cross-border opportunities whereas ENERCON
is a National Focal institution to promote energy
conservation all over the country with a mission
to cultivate a new energy culture for achieving
sustainable development through conservation and
efficient use of energy resources.

In order to develop a linkage between academia
and industry in this regard, ENERCON in collaboration
with PEC has developed a country-wide plan to hold


















































Technical Sessions on
Energy Audit Tools and
Techniques (3 to 4 hours)
in all universities of Pakistan
offering Energy Courses in
Mechanical, Electrical,
Chemical, Civil or any other
relevant discipline at
undergraduate level for final
year students. An energy
audit is a vital area including
inspection, survey and
analysis of energy flows
for energy conservation in a
building, process or a
system to reduce the
amount of energy input to
the system without
negatively affecting the
outputs. Presently, there is a
very little knowledge of the

subject among technical
professionals and demons-
ration of the tools through trainings would help identify.
The sessions have so far been successful and
universities administration supported the joint
commitment from ENERCON and PEC for highlighting
the importance of energy audits among students and
showed willingness to carry on such sustainable
activities. ENERCON is also technically supporting
engineering students in their research work related to
energy sector.


The awareness drive would play a vital role in setting up
certified energy managers regime for designated energy
consumers as per the Pakistan Energy Efficiency and
Conservation Bill & as well as Energy Provisions for
Building Code of Pakistan both of which are in their final
stages of approval.

Pakistan Sustainable Transport (PAKSTRAN) project is an initiative of UNDP-GEF that aims to provide technical
assistance to reduce the growth of energy consumption & related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transport sector
in Pakistan, while simultaneously improving urban environmental conditions and improving Pakistans trade
competitiveness.

The global objective of PAKSTRAN is to reduce the GHG emissions from transport sector in Pakistan. However, the
developmental objectives of PAKSTRAN are: to improve urban environmental conditions (i.e. improved air quality, urban
mobility, equity, city aesthetics); and to improve energy security for Pakistan.

The project is funded by UNDP & GEF (total budget is US$ 7.8 million with US$ 3.0 million from UNDP & US$ 4.8 million
from GEF). The project was approved by GEF and Government of Pakistan in June 2011, which is expected to be
completed in June 2016. ENERCON, Ministry of Water and Power is the Implementing Partner (IP) of the project.
Moreover, the project has four components (to achieve the project outcomes), which are given below:


Outcome 1:
An operational sustainable urban transport system in Punjab province (Punjab P&D Department is the responsible partner
for this outcome);
Outcome 2:
An operational sustainable urban transport system in Sindh province (Sindh Transport Department is the responsible
partner for this outcome);
Outcome 3:
Improved fuel efficiency in truck freight transport (Planning Commission of Pakistan is the responsible partner for this
outcome)
Outcome 4: Increased public awareness and institutional capacity on sustainable transport concepts (IUCN-Pakistan is
the responsible partner for this outcome).
The project management unit (PMU) is established at ENERCON, Ministry of Water & Power
