14 Measure/Program - Results and Plan Revolving Fund Program Description Low interest loan for Energy Efficiency via financial institutes Less than 4% interest Loan period of 7 years with one year grace period Up to 50 million baht (1.3 milion USD) Results Support over 240 EE/RE projects Total investment around 500 million USD of 150 million USD of Government s Revolving Fund Energy savings of 120 million USD per year. Future Plan Secured additonal 60 million USD of budget Long term Plan Reduce DEDE roles on Funding Sources providing more technical assistance More co-financing from the banks Training banking officers on EE technical knowledge

15 Measure/Program - Results and Plan ESCO Fund Program Description Results 2008 Future Plan Co-investment fund with private sector/investors Equity Investment Venture Capital Equipment Leasing Carbon Credit Trading Technical Assistance Credit Guarantee Facility Set up the Fund (initial budget of 15 million USD Selected 2 Fund Managers - Energy Conservation of Thailand Foundation - Energy for Environment Foundation Approved 17 projects for the total investment of 125 million USD. The investment from ESCO Fund is around 8.8 million USD with generating energy saving around 14 million USD /year Promoting and Marketing the Fund Support at least 20 projects Leverage minimum of 50 million USD Energy Savings of 10 million USD Long term Plan Increase the Fund to 100 to 200 million USD Corporatise the program to be Investment Company Open for private investors

16 EE Training and Capacity Building Measure/Program - Results and Plan Curriculum Results Future Plan General courses PRE Senior PRE Specialized Courses - Energy Management - Energy Audit - Energy Efficiency in Major Systems such as airconditioning, lighting, heating, etc - Energy Efficiency in Specific groups of industries (e.g. Textile, paper, Cement, etc.0 Cooperate with Vocational Study Department to add EE study in regular curriculum Trained over 4,000 PREs Trained 250 Senior PREs Trained over 15,000 people in other courses Added 4 EE courses in vocational study Train 40 college teachers to deliver EE course Train over 12,000 engineers and building operators Over 10,000 students attend EE courses every year Next Step DEDE develop Curriculums and allow private sectors to deliver the courses and charge trainees Train 500 vocational school teachers all over the country

17 Measure/Program - Results and Plan Cooperative Efforts for Energy Conservation Main Components Results Future plan On-siteTechnical Assistance to embed Sustainableenergy management system in facilities Establish EC Team and assess energy situation Identify EE opportunities Implement EE Projects M&E implemented over 3,000 facilities including 1250 Designated factories (Metallic, Food, Chemical, Textile) 600 Designated buildings (hospitals, hotels) over 1200 SMEs energy savings 80 million USD/ y (Housekeeping, Low cost measures) Implement in over 600 buildings and factories saving 450 million baht per year Long term plan Cost Sharing between government and private sector Develop Energy Management Standards as Ministerial Orders

20 3.1 Legislative Measures for Energy Efficiency Products

21 ECP Act, Section 23 In order to conserve energy in machinery or equipment, and to promote the use of energy efficient materials, the Cabinet, under the recommendation of the National Energy Policy Council, shall have the power to issue the Material Regulations as follows: (1) To designate machinery or equipment as having high efficiency, according to the types and sizes of the machinery and equipment, the quantities of energy consumption, the rate of energy loss, and the efficiency in energy consumption. (2) To determine which materials, by types, qualities, and standards, are materials used for energy conservation. Producers and distributors of high-efficiency machinery or equipment, or materials to be used for energy conservation under Clause one hereof, shall have the right to ask for support and assistance under Section 40. (ECP Act B.E. 2535)

22 ECP Act, Section 40 The producer or distributor of high efficiency machinery or equipment, or materials to be used in the energy conservation programmes shall have the right to request for promotion and assistance as follows: (1) exemption from paying surcharges under this Act; (2) grant or subsidy from the Fund under Section 25. Owners of factories, buildings, or government agencies and state enterprises which are not required to have energy conservation programmes under Clause one hereof, but desire to make provisions for energy conservation purpose, shall have the right to request for promotion and assistance under Clause one hereof. (ECP Act B.E. 2535)

23 Difference between MEPS & HEPS MEPS (Minimum Energy Performance Standard) : Mandatory Standard HEPS (High Energy Performance Standard) : Voluntary Standard

24 S&L Objective Raise the Average Energy Efficiency of the Products in the Market Market Transformation

25 Market Transformation Market penetration High Minimum Standard Push Labeling, Information, Co-operative procurement Lift Incentive Schemes, R&D, Technology Procurement Pull Low Bad Energy Efficiency Good

26 Strategy for establishing MEPS & HEPS DEDE signed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) in The agreement is that DEDE has responsibility to determine at least 35 products of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) in The new strategy: MEPS is targeted to cover 50 products and Ministerial Regulations are targeted to establish 54 products between 2007 and 2011.
