Development of a Business Model for Building Energy Performance Services in the ASEAN Region (64-2003)

Objectives

Energy services, and in particular Energy Performance Contract, are relatively new ventures among the ASEAN countries. An active energy services sector is crucial to the success of energy efficiency development. While there are existing models available, it is necessary to develop an ASEAN model which meets with the current needs and status of development of ASEAN nations.

The objective of this project is to develop a complete business model to serve the needs of energy retrofitting projects involving existing buildings. The business model will include the following:

• An ASEAN Building Energy Performance model for commercial buildings based on existing systems developed in Europe and elsewhere. This will serve as a base model for the measurement and verification of energy retrofitting projects;
• An Energy Services Procurement template in terms of procedure and documentation. This includes performance specification, tender template, evaluation processes and project contract templates;
• Project financing options and relevant documents, and project progress monitoring and management documentation.
