Building Efficiency Accelerator – South Asia

BEA

Back Active Start date: 01.01.2019

ACTIVITY INFORMATION

What we are doing

The energy consumed by buildings are one third of the global energy demand. The global building energy demand can be reduced significantly by adopting energy efficiency practices across regions. The BEA project aims to break down the barriers to efficient buildings which is predominantly institutional and behavioral through global and multi-sector collaboration. It engages with its partner cities networks and facilitates access to global expertise in building efficiency and a venue for engagement with private sector partners. Nagpur city will prioritize policies and implement actions with the objective of increasing building energy efficiency in its jurisdiction. Based on the needs of the city, ICLEI will match the expertise, technical resources and tools required for these activities.

How we are tracking

Adoption of one or more local policy for building efficiency, Identification of project investment Pipelines for direct investment in city efficiency projects, programs and policies, Implementation of replicable and scalable actions

What we are achieving

ICLEI has been appointed as the BEA Regional Lead in South Asia to act as the lead organization to plan and execute the work plan alongside Nagpur City. ICLEI acts as as a technical advisor and will facilitate stakeholder engagement and events, technical support, city recognition and peer learning. The project will build local capacity that can continue building efficiency activities after direct BEA assistance ends.
