Objective:
Increase energy efficiency in new and existing residential buildings using mature technologies.
Activities: (2011 - 2014)
The following activities would be undertaken:
- The distribution of compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) (Distribution of 5 million CFLs, possibly increasing this number as incandescent lamps will be banned according to the government strategy)
- A programme for roofs and walls insulation (Insulation of 2000 buildings by 2014)
- Introduction of subsidy/loans to encourage solar water heaters
The following types of support would be needed:
- Financial support for subsidy for solar hot water heaters
- Capacity building on insulation technologies and installation of insulation systems
- Assistance in the development of programmes and MRV systems
- Providing equipment for insulation material testing

Co-benefits:
| Social: | Information has not been provided |
|
| Economic: | Development of market of solar hot water heaters increases economic activity. |

| Environmental: | Information has not been provided |
MRV Framework:
The MRV approach is to be developed. There is a suggestion to base the approach on the CDM whole-building methodology “Energy efficiency technologies and fuel switching in new buildings” (AM0091), which allows for a simplified approach based on a 20% top performance benchmark expressed in terms of CO2/m2.
