The Philippine Efficient Lighting Market Transformation Project is intended to address the barriers to widespread utilization of energy efficient lighting (EEL) systems in the Philippines. It is aimed at contributing to the realization of the country’s sustainable development objectives and its goal in reducing GHG emissions in the energy sector. It will specifically focus on the promotion of energy efficient version of linear fluorescent lamps (i.e., slim tube T8 triphosphor), CFLs, high intensity discharge lamps, ballasts (low loss electromagnetic and electronic), and luminaries.

The project seeks to ensure the conservation of Rwanda's in-situ biological diversity through holistic support to the strenthening of the national protected area system, its technical and financial sustainability, and its cooperative link to local, national and regional constituents. The seven year project will lay the groundwork for a long-term effective system of protected areas in Rwanda.

The proposed project will promote efficient utilization of agricultural waste products to improve the physical environment in the rural areas of the four provinces of Henan, Hubei, Jiangxi, and Shanxi, and thereby reducing the emission of GHG, by (i) increasing the biogas (energy) supply in remote areas in four provinces; (ii) reversing the trend of deterioration of the ecological environment; (iii) decreasing the consumption of biomass resources; (iv) improving air quality; (v) reducing the use of chemical fertilizers as they are gradually replaced by organic fertilizers from the biogas dig

VEEPL is aimed at building both technical and policy support for transition to more energy efficient public lighting in Vietnam. By increasing the energy efficiency of public lighting installed over the next 10 years, the project will significantly reduce electricity consumption by the public lighting sector in Vietnam compared to what it otherwise would have been. Reducing electricity consumption will reduce emissions of GHG from the Vietnamese electricity generation sector.

The project’s focus is on strengthening protected area management and integrating biodiversity conservation criteria with sustainable forest use and agricultural production in the surrounding productive landscape of Western Terai. Within the Western Terai Landscape comples, project interventions will occur in three sites, including two protected areas, Royal Bardia National Park and Royal Suklaphanta Wildlife Reserve, their respective bufferzones, and priority areas in the intervening productive landscape that are critical for biodiversity conservation.

The project has the overall objective of ensuring the sustainable management of the basin's water resources, biodiversity and environment.

With an area of 400,000 km2, the Volta basin is one of the largest African freshwater basins. Shared by 6 countries, it is threatened by increasing pollution and sediment loads, introduction of non-indigenous species harmful to human and ecosysetm health, habitat degradation (wetlands, mangroves, estuaries) due to human activities, overfishing and excessive water withdrawals, accelerated erosion caused by deforestation, bush fires and overgrazing.

The project aims to protect a representative sample of the biodiversity of the Central Saharan region. This will be achieved through the conservation and sustainable use of globally significant biodiversity in the Tassili N'Ajjer and the Ahaggar National Parks. Given the vastness of the two protected areas and the specificity of desert ecosystems, a mixed strategy will be adopted.

The project will develop an integrated approach to in-situ Conservation of plant agrobiodiversity in Armenia. The project will combine in-situ Conservation with Conservation of crop wild relatives in protected areas.

The project aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from current heat and hot water supply practices in Armenian cities. The project consists of four components: 1.Strengthening the role of condominiums in organizing and managing the heat and hot water supply services at the building level. 2.Supporting the restructuring process and building the capacity of the existing DH companies to improve the efficiency of their operations.
