Energy efficiency can play a major role in reducing emissions, particularly in rapidly growing economies where fossil fuels are expected to continue as the primary energy resource. Yet unlike renewable energy investment and emission reductions processes, there are insufficient incentive mechanisms to encourage companies to take a more proactive approach to their energy management. Energy management should be viewed as a structured process through which companies seek to optimize their energy use by reducing waste, increasing energy efficiency and increasing the share of renewable energy. By optimizing energy usage, businesses will not only increase their economic health by reducing costs, but they can increase their environmental reputational integrity, as well as improve the overall health of the environment. Many ASEAN countries have generally been slow to adopt incentive mechanisms to accelerate emission reductions, amid concerns that emission constraints would undermine economic growth and create political instability. Yet as signatories to a variety of international environmental agreements, these countries have an obligation to meet their national and international commitments. Improving energy efficiency can be a major contributor to meeting these commitments. KLES Partners helps countries and local businesses develop and manage commercial energy efficiency solutions that enhance environmental integrity, improve productivity and create a more sustainable future.
