Delivering Energy Efficiency in the Middle East and North Africa : Achieving Energy Efficiency Potential in the Industry, Services and Residential Sectors
The main objective of this report is toprovide an intermediate step toward building moreenergy-efficient economies in the Middle East and NorthAfrica (MENA) region. The present study complements the 2009Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) reportby providing a quantitative basis for sectoral targeting andfocusing on delivery mechanisms. Taking advantage of theresults of the Regional Center for Renewable Energy andEnergy Efficiency (RCREEE) and preliminary results of theReadiness for Investment in Sustainable Energy (RISE) WorldBank Survey, the report is able to assess the areas wherecountries in MENA can gain most from the energy efficiency(EE) potential and build an enabling environment forenhancing EE. Finally, the report draws on lessons learnedon EE from other middle-income and high-income countries andbrings in perspectives that can serve as beneficial for theMENA countries. The report focuses primarily on the threemost electricity intense end use sectors: the industry,services, and residential sectors. For many countries in theMENA region, electricity shortages—often connected to thecost and availability of imported fuels—are key motivatorsfor raising EE. This book is arranged as follows: 1) Chapterone seeks to provide a quantitative basis for considering EEpriorities; 2) Chapter two presents a comprehensive,integrated framework to support EE; 3) Chapter three drawson examples from other regions of how energy savings havealready been delivered through mechanisms involving twoclasses of agents—energy utilities and domestic financeinstitutions—whose participation is key to scaling up EE;and 4) Chapter four combines the information in the previousthree chapters, and offers options for how to enhance EE inthe MENA region.
