Project description

The public sector in China include the national and local government-owned and operated institutions and facilities that provide service to the general public. These include buildings of government (central and local) ministries/departments, quasi-government organizations and associations whose operating budget comes from the Chinese government. To facilitate the widespread practice and application of energy conservation and energy efficiency (EC&EE) in the public sector, the National Government Offices Administration (NGOA) established its Energy Conservation Management Division (ECMD) in 2010, making it responsible for advancing, guiding, coordinating and supervising the implementation of EC&EE initiatives in the public sector in China. It has issued a number of administrative actions on EC&EE in the public sector during the 12th Five-Year Plan (12th FYP) period and has so far realized modest achievements. Even though the public sector in China has realized some achievements in EC&EE and in the application of low carbon technologies, energy utilization efficiency and reduction in specific energy consumption in the public sector can be further improved in the coming 13th FYP periods. This existing situation can be greatly improved through improving barriers, including: integrating policy and regulatory frameworks, evaluations systems, market-oriented financing mechanism, and improved outreach and professional capacity building.
