Efficient Lighting Offers a Rapid Response To a Global Energy Challenge

Source: IEA (2013) World Energy Outlook

3

The Potential Benefits 500 million tonnes of CO2 avoided emissions

Equivalent to the emissions of 140 million mid-sized cars

4

Savings of 113 billion USD in annual electricity bills (958 TWh of electricity)

The Potential Benefits

Equivalent to 5% of the TOTAL global electricity consumption. It avoids the construction of 250 coal-fired power plants (500MW)

Public-Private Partnership

• Established to accelerate the global market transformation to environmentally

sustainable lighting • Target phase-out of inefficient lighting by 2016 • Provides expert guidance, technical support and tools to assist countries

• Promote minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) • Promote and encourage global best practices

• Global Efficient Lighting Partnership Programme • Voluntary initiative open to all developing countries worldwide

5

How to Make the Global Transition a Reality?

6

The Methodology The Integrated Policy Approach

To ensure the efficiency and quality of energy saving lighting products

To restrict the supply of inefficient lighting and promote the demand for energy saving products

To ensure compliance of product quality

To encourage the sound disposal and/or recycling of spent lamps, and to abide to the maximum mercury content limits

7

The Results: Country Support • 50 countries joined the Global Efficient Lighting Partnership Programme • 4 Pilot countries: National Efficient Lighting Strategies

• Chile, Uruguay, Tunisia, Jordan

• 2 Pilot regions: Regional Efficient Lighting Strategies • Central America: 8 countries • West Africa – ECOWAS: 15 countries

• Global Efficient Lighting Centre • Testing and laboratory support • Pilot trials • Training to lab technicians • Training to manufacturers

• Tools and resources for decision makers • Policy and technical advice • UNEP – UNDP collaboration • Lighting NAMA guidebook (soon to be published) • Ambilamp Academy for Environmental Sound Management

Ambilamp Academy International course for sound management of lamps

• A joint initiative from Ambilamp, UNEP and the private sector to offer training courses on the environmentally sound management of lighting products

• Objective : provide participants with the necessary tools to establish a national scheme for collection and recycling of spent lamps in their own country

• Target audience: policy makers and technical experts in the field of waste management and lighting energy efficiency

• Format : 5 days training course in Madrid including interactive and multimedia technical presentations; discussions sessions and experience sharing; hands-on exercises and field visits

12

What is Next? • Promote the transition to efficient lighting in other sectors: commercial,

industrial, and outdoor lighting • Promote top-notch technologies: LEDs and controls • Develop more technical and policy guides to keep supporting countries • Foster a global consensus: the Global Efficient Lighting Forum

13

What is Next?

• Platform for dialogue and agreement on concrete measures and financial options

• Accelerate a global transition to efficient lighting with innovative efficient technologies

• Concrete global contribution to cost-effective low carbon development and energy efficiency

• All lighting sectors: residential, industrial, commercial, outdoor
