on Energy Management in Lao PDR
Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR)
Institute of renewable Energy Promotion (IREP), Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM)
Miss. Souphavady PHOTHISATH

Roadmap on EE&C Policy on EMS
There are three phase on Energy efficiency and conservation promotion in
Lao PDR:
Phase I: Introduction period. The energy reduction target 3% between 2015
to 2020
Phase II: Implementation period. The energy reduction target 5% between
2021 to 2025
Phase III: Experienced Implementation period. The energy reduction target
10% between 2015 to 2030.

Current status of Energy Management in Lao PDRCurrently, We have not had BEC/GBC in Laos PDR yet. We just started toestablish the Energy Management System on factories and buildings inVientiane CapitalDraft and developing the regulations, decree, policies, EC Guideline, EM
Manual:The EE&C policy was approved by 2016
The Prime Minister Decree on EE&C is expecting approval within this year.
(There are 13 parts, 78 Articles)
Draft the EC Guideline and EM Manual under AJEEP activities cooperation

The implementation on Energy Management System in Lao
 January, 2016 we have a Project on GEB at UNDP’s Building with Solar roof top. the capacity isabout 18 KW
 Energy Conservation Building 236 kW at Wattay international Airport and 178 kW at EDL’s
Building support by JICA

 After TOT in Thailand by 2016-2017 Energy Audit on MEM’s building and Coca-cola’s Factoryby 2017 and will develop to other office Government in the future Cooperation 4 year plan with AJEEP, following on the activities of EMS arrangement scheme
plan by ECCJ:- This year, we conducted energy data collection survey of 31 factories and 36 buildings in Vientiane
capital and analysis data of sample survey.
- Based on the result of the 1st workshop on Scheme 3 in Lao PDR on 29-31 Aug 2018, weselected 3 factories and 2 buildings to be the “Model Project”- Set up TWG on Energy Management System- Considering the certification system of Energy manager

The Certification methods on Energy Manager:• Education Background of Electricity or Mechanical Engineering +Practical experience + Examination• Practical experience < 3 years + Training Crouse + Examination• Practical experience ≥ 3 years + Examination
