United for Efficiency supports Tunisia’s policymakers and regulators to advance policies, strategies and actions for the phase-out of inefficient lighting. Emphasis is on an integrated policy approach so that a transition can be sustained by the domestic market without continued external support or resources.
PROJECT DETAILS
LEAPFROGGING TUNISIA’S LIGHTING MARKET TO HIGH EFFICIENCY TECHNOLOGIES
The objective of this GEF-funded project is to promote the rapid transformation of the Tunisian market to energy-efficient lighting technologies, thereby reducing electrical demand and consumption and related greenhouse gases emissions.
