ezszSince September 2014, ISEDC is serving as the Executing Agency for the UNDP / GEF Project "Building Energy Efficiency in the North West of Russia" (corresponding agreement was signed between the ISEDC and UNDP was on September 25, 2014).
National Executing Agency for the Project is Federal State Budget  Institution "Russian Energy Agency" (REA) by Russian Ministry of Energy.
UNDP/GEF Project “Energy Efficiency in the North West of Russia” is submitted under the framework of the Umbrella “Russia Energy Efficiency Programme” – a partnership of UNDP, EBRD, and UNIDO involving key Russian federal sectoral agencies and regional authorities. Three regions in the North West Federal District are participating in the Project.
The project will build local capacities for and demonstrate local solutions to improved energy efficiency in buildings in three regions in North West Russia: Pskov, Vologda and Arkhangelsk Oblasts.
The project objective will be achieved through the following three components:

  • An enabling environment and enforcement capacities for improved energy efficiency at  the provincial and local levels with an emphasis on efficient building codes and their enforcement
  • Capacity building and know-how for architects, engineers, and students
  • Demonstration of local energy-efficient solutions and management models.

The project strategy is to reduce existing institutional, management, information, technological, investment, and knowledge barriers that hamper wide penetration of energy efficient technologies and practices in the construction and building maintenance sectors.
The project expects to save 11,755 MWh/yr and reduce 2,380 tCO2 a year directly, or nearly 235,013 MWh/yr and 47,535 tCO2 over a twenty-year period.

During 2013 – 2014, ISEDC served as the Executing Agency for the UNDP / GEF Project "Greening 2014 Sochi Olympics: A Strategy and Action Plan for the Greening Legacy" (corresponding agreement was signed between the ISEDC and UNDP was on December 29, 2012).
National Executing Agency for the Project is the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of the Russian Federation.
The project "Greening 2014 Sochi Olympics: A Strategy and Action Plan for the Greening Legacy" was developing an environmental strategy and action plan for the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi in 2014.
In the framework of the project the environmental recommendations and action plans for six following separate components were developed:

  • Green building standards
  • Energy efficiency and energy savings
  • Technologies of use of renewable energy sources
  • Use of low-carbon transport
  • Compensation for carbon emission
  • Public awareness

Via early planning in the sphere of reduction of the climate change impact, the project aims to assist in the preparation of measures for "neutralization" of carbon emissions and realization of the potential of greenhouse gas emission reduction during the preparation and implementation of the Olympic Games in Sochi.

In 2011 ISEDC actively participated in implementation of the project of UNDP / GEF “Transforming the Market for Efficient Lighting”. In the framework of the project experts of the Center prepared scientific research study for UNDP on “Development of the mechanisms of the energy efficiency standards in lighting enforcement”.
The project aims reduction of the greenhouse gas emission in Russia by increasing the energy efficiency of lighting.
The object of the project is the transformation of the Russian lighting market by promotion of the energy-efficient lighting technologies and systems, and gradual replacement of inefficient lighting.
The project focuses on the following sectors of lighting systems:

  • Housing sector
  • Public sector
  • Educational sector
  • Industrial Sector
  • Outdoor lighting

The objects of study in the framework of the project are:

  • Compact fluorescent lamps (CFL)
  • Modern fluorescent lamps with electronic ballast (T5 and T8 types)
  • Ceramic metal halide lamps
  • LED lighting
  • Centralized management system
  • Efficient lighting systems.
