| ID #: 7 Area: Mitigation Cluster: Building Energy Efficiency Institution: ADB Author: Operations Evaluation Department Region: East Asia and Pacific Level: Country Year: 2005 Type: Project Performance Evaluation Report |  Adequate heating is essential for survival during the harsh winter in Ulaanbaatar, the coldest capital in the world (average annual temperature of 3 degrees Celsius below zero). Ulaanbaatar's district heating system was established in 1959. By the mid-1990s, there were excessive losses of heat and hot water because of poor insulation and leaks throughout the system, which had deteriorated due to inadequate maintenance.Link to publishing site |
| Energy Policy 2000 Review: Energy Efficiency for a Better Future | |
| ID #: 8 Area: Mitigation Cluster: Industrial Energy Efficiency Institution: ADB Author: Operations Evaluation Department Region: East Asia and Pacific Level: Regional Year: 2007 Type: Policy Evaluation |  This evaluation was based on the analysis of ADB's operational data, ADB publications, and related literature, evaluation evidence in reports and databases, and country studies covering India, the People's Republic of China and Sri Lanka. Both the 1995 Energy Policy and 2000 Review, similar to other policies developed during this time period, lacked a welldeveloped design and monitoring framework with clear objectives and monitorable indicators.Link to publishing site |
| Industrial Energy Efficiency Project in India | |
| ID #: 9 Area: Mitigation Cluster: Industrial Energy Efficiency Institution: ADB Author: Operations Evaluation Department Region: East Asia and Pacific Level: Country Year: 2005 Type: Project Performance Audit Report |  The main objective of the Project was to promote energy efficiency in the energyintensive industries in India. Since the industry did not invest as much as expected in energy efficiency, the Project sought to address this market failure through the Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI), the apex project financing institution in India. The loan proceeds were to finance priority projects of public and private sector enterprises for energy efficiency and environmental improvement for 1995-1997 in the iron and steel, cement, chemical, fertilizer, pulp and paper, sugar, and textile sectors.Link to publishing site |
| Mini-hydropower project in Nepal | |
| ID #: 10 Area: Mitigation Cluster: Renewable Energy Institution: ADB Author: Region: East Asia and Pacific Level: Local Year: 1998 Type: Project Performance Audit Report |  The mini-hydropower project was intended to provide hydropower generation to several district headquarters and major market and tourist center in the hill areas of Nepal. The main components of the Project were eight small hydropower generating plants and related transmission and distribution facilities, service connections and house wiring, canal and pipe irrigation, a central maintenance workshop, and training for plant operator and linesmen.Link to publishing site |
| Rural Electrification Project in Bhutan | |
| ID #: 11 Area: Mitigation Cluster: Renewable Energy Institution: ADB Author: Operations Evaluation Department Region: East Asia and Pacific Level: Country Year: 2003 Type: Project Performance Audit Report | The Seventh 5-Year Plan (1992-1997) gave high priority to conserving natural resources and reducing the existing rate of forest depletion. It envisaged that this goal could be achieved through a gradual substitution of electricity for other types of fuel particularly in rural areas. The Asian Development Bank's (ADB's) strategy for the energy sector in Bhutan, which focused on the expansion of the power transmission and distribution systems for balanced regional development, coincided well with this goal.
