EVENT OBJECTIVE:
The objective of the forum is to engage the forum participants in the collective actions that the Energy Smart program is initiating at 2 levels of interventions: (1) Government and Private Buildings (2) Economic Zones and Industrial Supply Chains.
KEY MESSAGES:
The Energy Smart Program has taken the challenge of promoting energy efficiency from the enterprise level to the community level. This collective action will engage the government and the private sector to develop a policy environment that recognizes the importance of energy efficiency as a key action to address climate change issues while achieving business competitiveness.
The Energy Smart Program aims to broaden the coverage of the advocacy to achieve a wider and deeper economic impact of the action and to institutionalize energy efficiency initiatives as a way to achieve sustainability.
The Energy Smart Program bridges the need of industries/companies to be energy efficient while tapping renewable sources of energy as a way to address the rising cost of energy.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS: Plenary Session (Morning)

Breakout Sessions (Afternoon)
There will be a designated moderator for each Breakout Session plus panelists who will discuss how to drive energy efficiency in each of the target groups. Each group will focus discussions on the current trends, issues faced, business opportunities and identify ways to advance the advocacy in each target group.
The breakout sessions are aimed at highlighting the potential power of one driver to initiate action in a collective way in order to achieve energy efficiency.
1. Private & Government Buildings
This session will discuss demand trends for energy efficient buildings and best practices in greening buildings particularly reducing energy consumption, the need for energy efficient buildings from the perspective of users and locators (e.g. BPO/IT Companies, other multinational corporations, etc.) and the status of the government’s program to make their buildings/facilities/operations energy efficient. This group will also dialogue with government on their role as a driver of energy efficiency advocacy and look into opportunities for assisting the government in their drive to be energy efficient.
2. Low Carbon Economic Zones and Green Supply Chains
This session will discuss the importance of making locators energy efficient as a contribution to lowering the carbon footprint to international buyers/clients, the cooperation of PEZA and Energy Smart/ECCP in helping locators launch their energy efficiency programs; how to engage big players in industries that have high energy consumption levels to adopt energy efficient measures and how to engage their supply chain partners to do the same to achieve a lower carbon footprint in their operations.
