Case study on energy efficiency: UNIDO in cooperation with the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy (MEER) worked together with INDIMA, an Ecuadorian

company, to implement an Energy Management System (EnMS) in line with the international standard ISO 50001.

Africa's renewable energy power potential is substantially larger than the current and projected power consumption of the continent. Local geothermal, solar thermal and bioenergy resources have an important role to play in covering future heat demand. Domestic biofuels and renewable energy-based electrification of urban public transport can contribute significantly to transport needs.
