Overview : The Standards and Labeling Programme is a five year initiative designed to remove barriers to market transformation of energy efficient products and services in Kenya with replication effect to 4 other East African Community (EAC) countries of Burundi, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda.
The goal of the Programme is to reduce energy (electricity) related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in Kenya and the EAC Countries by improving the energy efficiency of selected appliances and equipment in Residential, Commercial and Industrial Sectors. This will be achieved by market transformation towards high-energy efficient appliances through the introduction of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) and Energy Efficiency Labels
The main objective of the project is to remove the barriers to rapid and widespread uptake of energy efficient motors in the industrial sector; refrigerators in the residential; display refrigerators in the commercial sector; air-conditioners in the commercial and residential sectors; and lighting in the three sectors.
Objective.
The objective of this assignment is to undertake a Feasibility study on establishment of a Testing Facility in Kenya for the selected appliances in Kenya. |
