	Stage	Sector name	Sub-sector	Objective
Development and Installation of Carbon Dioxide Sequestration Technologies in Pakistan	Under development	Energy	Refining and energy production	To develop and install carbon dioxide sequestration or scavenging technologies near the Thar coal, Kandra gas fields and other power generation stations with reduced risk of un-capture carbon and carbon dioxide, to make safe use of coal deposits for production of energy, in order to cope the prevailing situation of energy crisis in the country.
Energy Efficient Lighting in Residential, Commercial, Industrial and Outdoors Sectors	Under development	Buildings Industry	Energy efficiency	Contribute to energy security and emission reductions through energy efficient lighting.
Harnessing Municipal Waste of big Cities of Pakistan to Generate Electricity	Under development	Waste		This NAMA is designed to develop regulatory, legislative and financial instrumental streams for the development and promotion of municipal waste management system and deploying them for energy generation.
Waste Sector NAMA in Pakistan	Under development	Waste		The overall objective is the reduction of emissions from solid and liquid wastes from the urban cities. With this NAMA, Pakistan wants to development a programme to promote alternative use of waste, specifically for energy production. The scope of the programme will include different forms of energy and technologies.
Strategizing for Grid Strengthening / Improvement for evacuation of power from Wind Power Projects	Under development	Energy	Renewable energy (wind)	This NAMA support project is designed to develop a master plan for development of wind power and prepare a strategy for developing national grid to evacuate the power. This NAMA Support project will also help in addressing the issues related to financing and capacity lackings.
Supporting Mechanisms for Promoting Distributed Generation (Net Metering, Wheeling, Banking etc.) in Pakistan to put 3 GW Alternative and Renewable Energy (ARE) Projects in next 7 years.	Under development	Energy	Renewable energy (unspecified)	This NAMA Support project will enable in establishing a conducive environment for development of Alternative and Renewable Energy (ARE) Distributed Generation options in the country. The overall objective of this NAMA Support document is to establish a regulatory regime that would help in developing the ARE DG options in the country.
Bio-energy generation and greenhouse-gases mitigation though organic-waste utilization	Under development	Agriculture Waste	Renewable energy (biomass)	The overall mission of this project will be to develop and disseminate environment-friendly and cost-effective technologies and management practices of bio-energy generation from organic waste for sustainable development in agriculture and water sectors to attain and sustain cost-effective farming systems and reduce greenhouse gases emission.
Strategizing for Grid Strengthening / Improvement for evacuation of power from Solar Power Projects	Under development	Energy	Renewable energy (solar)	This NAMA Support project is designed to develop a master plan for development of solar power and prepare a strategy for developing national grid to evacuate the power. This NAMA Support project will also help in addressing the issues related to financing and capacity lackings.
Accelerating the Market Transformation to Energy Efficient Lighting	Under development	Buildings	Energy efficiency	The main activities of NAMA proposal includes the development and enforcement of a National Efficient Lighting Strategy, including minimum energy performance standards (MEPS); monitoring, verification, and enforcement; environmentally sound management (ESM); and communication and distribution campaign showing the benefits of high efficiency LEDs. The support from the proposed NAMA will provide both the design and implementation. Additionally, the project will establish a revolving loan fund (RLF) to accelerate the transition to efficient lighting products.
