Why is Energy Efficiency Important for Armenia?
create conditions for economic growth while improving
Energy Efficiency can
:
the country’s energy security.
reduce the energy intensity of the national economic
output, improve cost-effectiveness & competitiveness
maintain a safe, sustainable and affordable energy supply,
while mitigating climate change
help meet increasing energy demand, capturing “lost
opportunities” for saving energy in new construction
Improve the quality of life for the Armenian population,
create jobs and help local economy
reduces utility bills for all consumer groups
reduces use of limited natural resources and pressure on
endangered forest resources
Under conditions of extreme energy import dependence, energy that Armenia’s citizens, businesses,
and infrastructure do not use is the cheapest, cleanest, and most secure energy resource.
Quantifying Energy Efficiency for Armenia’s Economy
Realizing full economic
potential of energy saving, can Economic gain from energy
rise Armenia’s domestic energy saving equivalent to 5% of GNP,
supply may rise by 50-70% or 80% of state budget deficit
(reduced energy imports)
1m3 of imported natural gas costs
Building 1kW new capacity costs
twice more than investments to
5 times more than saving 1kW
reduce 1m3 natural gas
energy on demand side

NEEAP Process Introduction
• NEEAPs in Southeast European Countries (West Balkans, Moldova, Ukraine,
pending Georgia)
• focus on documenting ongoing efforts,
• identify cost-effective and/or low-cost/no-cost measures to promote energy efficiency,
• under conditions of limited availability of funds from state budget, rely on IFI lending
and private sector participation
• 1st National Energy Efficiency Action Plan (NEEAP)
• developed in 2010 for 2010-2013, assessed for 2010-2014
• Set energy saving target for 3% by 2013;
• 2nd NEEAP
• Assesses the 1st NEEAP progress (2010-2014)
• Sets forth targets for the next 3-year period (2015-2017)
• Sets indicative targets for 2018 and 2020
• Outlines the allocation of institutional roles and monitoring duties
The 2nd NEEAP also includes
Analysis and
report on the • Primary energy savings (separate
implementation section), which will include description

for 2018 and 2020
• National target for nearly zero energy
buildings – not quantitative;
2nd NEEAP
• Possible improvements of the primary
elements
and secondary legislation necessary
for achieving the energy efficiency
Funds required Education and
targets; this may include mechanisms
for the promotion
for energy efficient public
implementation activities aimed to procurement, new regulations and
of anticipated encourage standards for enforcement of new
activities and rational energy energy efficiency technologies, etc.,
and
sources thereof use
Deadlines for
implementation • Other data as proposed in the
template, as well as data that are not
of energy
required in the template but are
efficiency
deemed to be necessary and
activities
important to be included such as the
financial aspects and savings.
