Teaching (general)
NUOL offers Ph.D.(3), M.Sc.(33), B.Sc(96) and Some
Associate degrees (higher diploma) programs
Teaching (energy efficiency)
Energy issues have been taught at several Faculties
Some components of Energy Efficiency have been
included into curriculums of Mechanical and Electrical
Engineering
Faculty’s staffs actively participated EE projects
(ACMECS, PROMEEC)
5. About NUOL
Research (general)
all
staffs are encouraged to do scientific research
Research activities are among the compulsory
requirements for academic title award and
promotion
Research (energy efficiency):
Electricity consumption in Public building (survey,
ADB, 2011)
Household electricity consumption (survey, JICA,
2012-13)
Drafting EE&C policy and Strategy of Lao PDR (ADB)

14. About energy efficiency in Lao
PDR
Lao government energy efficiency targets
for the long term:
To reduce Final energy demand by 10%
by 2030, (commitment of Lao PDR at
EMM5)
To reduce annual final energy demand
growth from 4% to 3% by 2030 (drafting
policy)
To achieve 30% share of RE by 2025;
15. About energy efficiency in Lao
PDR
Energy efficiency policies of Lao PDR
Under drafting: National Energy Efficiency
and Energy Conservation Strategy of Lao
PDR (Financial support by ADB)
Drafting action plans (short term):
Capacity building
Base line energy data collection
Kick-start measures (promotional
campaigns, pilot projects)
16. About energy efficiency in Lao
PDR
State of affairs energy efficiency in Lao PDR (best
practice, pilot projects)
PROMEEC (JAPAN+ASEAN): EE&C directory and database
DSM/EE: pilot project (EDL+WB)
ACMECS (Lao PDR + Thailand): training on EE&C
ADB: drafting EE strategy and action plan
Lao Cleaner Production Center(MIC): Promotion on
awareness waste minimization and energy efficiency in
SMEs sector
Lao Brewery Company Limited: CDM Project “Improvement
Energy Efficiency in Energy Utilities Equipment” started 2006
Ongoing work in energy efficiency for low income
households?
Replacement of 500,000 inefficient Fluorescent
tubes by CFL (DSM/EE project, Free of charges)
17. About energy efficiency in Lao
PDR in relation to MECON project
Absence of National EE&C promotion policy/strategy
Unclear and underdeveloped institutional framework for
EE/C.
No taxation system in favor of introduction EE/C measures
Insufficient data on residential energy consumption by endusers groups
Almost all households technologies are imported: Lack of
standards and labeling,
Energy labels are not yet applicable for household technology
Energy efficiency awareness campaigns: dissemination of EE
knowledge (by DSM/EE project) through mass
media, distritution of brochures/posters/stickers
Estimate of current knowledge about EE amongst low income
households: lack of knowledge about EE (including the
emerging consumers)
18. About MECON project
Expectations MECON project results
Better knowledge on energy consumption, in particular
for new emerging groups
Essential information for energy planning
Who are local stakeholders (government, private
sector, finance sector)
Ministry of Energy and Mines
State enterprises (EDL, Water supply utility, )
Private sector: cement industry, Garment
factories, Brewery and food processing
industries, Cottage industries, Hotels, Commercial
buildings,
Finance sector: commercial banks?
19. Final remarks
Any other remarks
MECON
will be an excellent support to drafting EE
policy/strategy/action plans of Lao PDR
NUOL staffs will develop their research skills
through MECON
Important step forward regional networking
cooperation and integration in scientific research
