SE4ALL WORKSHOP Present Status of Building Energy Code  in Lao PDR 14-16 February 2017 Tokyo Japan
I. Overview of Energy Consumption II. Present Status of EE&C and Building Energy Code III.Future Plan IV、Barriers V. Countermeasures VI.Request for Supports By ECCJ and SE4ALL
Primary Energy Consumption in Lao PDR by 2015 (MEM)
▪ To announce and implement National EE&C| policy ▪ To finalize the Decrees on EE&C Promotion ▪ To Develop EE&C strategy and action plan toward 2030 ✓EE&C Capacity building ✓Development　of　National　standards:　Building Energy code, electric appliances labeling, … ✓Initiate and implement some first pilot projects
▪ Regulatory Instruments: • Completed the National EE&C Policy (Industry, Residential, Building and Transportation) . Final Draft Decree on EE&C (8 chapters and 40 articles) . Draft Building Code Prepared by Ministry of Public Work and Transportation (11 chapters and 68 articles) ▪ Voluntary Instruments : •   Voluntary Energy Audit-Limited •   Voluntary Programs for Training and Awareness
▪  Building Energy Code & Standard Development ▪  Building Energy Code Dissemination ▪  Best Practices Guidelines/Manuals ▪ Capacity Building ▪ Energy Code Support ▪  Market Mechanism for code implementation ▪ Developing independent certifying agencies
Building and Systems ◾  Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV) of the building envelope < 45 Wm-². ▪ Efficient Electric Lighting < 16 Wm-² office. ◾ Efficient chillers and compressors (not the system). Building Energy Management ▪ Conduct energy audit ▪ Plan and retrofit building ▪ Report energy use
▪  Building Envelops : Building envelopes comprise a range of elements, with roofs, walls, windows, foundations and air leakage being the primary elements that affect building heating, cooling and ventilation loads. ▪ Heating and Cooling Technologies : A systems approach, including integration of heating and cooling needs with improved building envelopes, is necessary to achieve higher energy efficiencies and a low-carbon heating and cooling supply. ▪ Lighting, Cooking, and Appliances : Significant potential remains to achieve higher energy efficiencies in lighting and appliances, while cooking efficiencies, especially using traditional biomass, can be vastly improved.
▪ Policies for Buildings: Development of Building- specific  and  product-specific  policies,  in conjunction with broader systems-level policies, will be essential to achieving large energy savings and emissions reduction.
▪ Insufficient of regulations and national standards on EE&C and Building Code ▪ Poor public awareness on EE&C and Building Code, ▪ Lack of information on available efficient technologies and knowledge on energy savings potential for EE&C, ▪ Inadequate financial incentives, ▪ Insufficient funding support for EE&C
▪ Expedite relevant decrees, regulations, and national standards on EE&C and Building Code ▪ Raise public awareness on EE&C and Building Code, ▪ Communicate the requirements on EE&C and Building Code with relating authorities, such as public works department, department of commerce, etc. ▪ Communicate information on available efficient technologies and knowledge on energy savings potential for EE&C and Building Code with architects and engineers who are responsible for building design and equipment procurement. ▪ Review of tax incentives for energy efficient building and products.
◾ Public campaign and training on awareness on EE&C and Building Code, ◾ Trainings for energy efficient technologies and knowledge on energy saving potentials for EE&C and Building Code, ◾ Study on financial incentives tax schemes for the support of EE&C and Building Code, Thank you for your kind attention
