Overcoming Pakistan's current crisis through energy efficiency and renewable energy was the topic of a seminar supported by USAID and organized by Senator (R) Rukhsana Zuberi, chairperson of the Pakistan Engineering Council and head of the non-government organization, South Asian Women in Energy. The Alliance's Alexander Filippov was among the experts advising Pakistani representatives on energy efficiency implementation.

• National Petroleum Council (“Hard Truths”)
- “energy efficiency is a very near-term energy resource,
and tapping it is essential” (Dan Yergin, Vice Chair of
Study)
• Utility leaders
– Jim Rogers (CEO, Duke Energy) -- “the fifth fuel”
– Tom Kuhn (President, EEI) -- “the first fuel”
• Barack Obama:
– “One of the fastest, easiest, and cheapest ways to make
our economy stronger and cleaner”
• Secretary Chu
– "The biggest gains…will come from energy efficiency and
conservation”
Everyone’s talking about energy efficiency:

Why Energy Efficiency?
• CHEAPER
• Each $1 invested in Energy Star program = $75 in energy cost
savings and $15 of investment in new efficiency technologies
• Average cost of utility DSM programs = $0.02 -0.04/kWh
• QUICKER
• In 2001, California cut peak electricity use by 10% in less than
a year
• CLEANER
• “Negawatts” produce NO ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT
• IMPROVE THE ECONOMY and ENERGY SECURITY
• Minimize Needs for Imported Energy
• Create New Jobs
• Help Keep Energy Prices Lower by Reducing Demand

Policy Tools: Appliance Standards
• Appliance standards are among the most
effective EE policies
• Total savings from existing standards in 2000:
– 2.5% of U.S. electricity use
– 21,000 MW of peak power demand
– $50 billion in net consumer savings
• Total savings from existing standards by 2020:
– 7.8% of projected U.S. electricity use
– 120,000 MW of peak power demand
– $186 billion in net consumer savings

Industrial Systems Energy Efficiency
• Industrial firms tend to invest in process changes for EE
and productivity – long term and high cost
• Cross-cutting energy systems (motors-driven, steam,
process heating) offer 20-50% savings potential
– Inefficient systems found in nearly every plant
– Near-term, lower-cost savings are from optimizing
systems not components (2-5% savings)
• Customize system energy efficiency for each site
• Best Practices:
– Educate plant engineers: training, software, publications
– Industry partnerships
– Cost-shared plant energy assessments

WATERGY : Efficiency of municipal water
and wastewater systems
Watergy makes the best use of two valuable,
limited resources: water & energy
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
 Every liter of water that passes through a system has a significant
energy cost.
 Water sector efficiency leaves more funds for crucial and often
underfunded public services.
 In developing countries, the loss of supplied water is 30 – 50%
AND IT’S COST EFFECTIVE…
 Rapid Payback: generally from a few months to 3 years
 Huge Savings: at least 20% in energy costs; much higher possible
 Makes the most of existing infrastructure; reduces the need for new

COMMON BARRIERS to Energy & Water Efficiency
1. Lack of Awareness
Especially true applying energy efficiency to water sector
2. Aversion to Risk
Fear of change. Must convey that benefits outweigh any risks.
3. Change May Imply a Problem with the Status Quo
Suggestions for change may imply criticism of performance,
ability.
4. Subsidies
Water should be priced to recover costs.
Can be politically sensitive.
5. Financing Efficiency
“Performance” (savings)-based financing in cases where
capital outlays required.

CASE STUDY:Emfuleni, South Africa
ESCO Model of Performance Contracting
APPLIED TO WATER
PROBLEM
• 80% of water delivered was lost through leaking plumbing fixtures!
• Exacerbated by high pressure in bulk water supply lines:
 makes existing leaks worse;
 pre-mature failure of plumbing fixtures in this low-income area.
SOLUTION
 Pressure reduction
 Water pressure management firm acting as ESCO
 Fees: firm gets 20% of savings
 Build-Own-Operate-Transfer to municipality after 5 years

Issues
 Availability of Finance to
ESCOs.
 Payment Guarantee
Mechanism to ESCOs
 ESCO projects in India
often falter if not fail due
to disputes over
quantifying energy
savings resulting from the
project
Solutions
 TNUIFSL / TNUDF willing to
finance ESCOs
 Setting up of TRA Account
with electricity bill payment
escrowed
 Using The International
Performance Measurement
and Verification Protocol
(IPMVP).
