Zero Emission Buildings China (ZEB China)
China | Building and Settlement
The project supports the decarbonization of China’s building sector, which is the biggest in the world, with Switzerland’s leading know-how on sustainable construction working with Chinese partners on upgrading building standards, advising demonstration projects and enhancing capacities of local authorities, professionals as well as university students.
AGUASAN Workshop Series
Switzerland | Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)
AGUASAN is an interdisciplinary Swiss community of practice (CoP) bringing together a wide range of specialists to promote wider and deeper understanding of key issues in water and sanitation in international cooperation.
SDC Backstopping Mandate for Water
Switzerland | Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)
Through the SDC’s global programmes, Switzerland aims to establish universally recognized standards helping to resolve global challenges at the core of sustainable development. Against this backdrop, the Global Programme Water (GPW) contributes to the reduction of global water-related risks and the realisation of a water-secure world.
Central project evaluation of the project “Programme for sustainable energies, Senegal”
Senegal | Energy and Climate
The approach of this program is to support the Senegalese government in exploiting the potential of renewables for electricity production and, at the same time, to use the available energy in a more efficient way and engage the private sector.
Central project evaluation of two projects “Energy Efficiency in Morocco” and “Employment promotion through energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energies (RE) in mosques”
Morocco | Energy and Climate
Preparation and implementation of online workshops and interviews, verification of several hypotheses selected from the results matrix (Theory of Change), SMART analysis of indicators, application of efficiency tool based on cost data, etc.; reporting on both evaluations with due regard to the requirements of GIZ.
International Support for Village Renewable Energy Survey for Afghanistan – focus on Micro Hydropower (MHP)
Afghanistan | Energy and Climate
Only one third of the population of Afghanistan has access to electricity; hence, The Afghanistan Ministry of Energy and Water (MEW), aims to meet the energy demands across the country by supporting and encouraging the use of Renewable Energy (RE). The GIZ Program’s Output 4 is mainly addressing climate change as well as boosting the productive use of renewable energy in Afghanistan through sustainable energy and ecosystem management.
Environmentally compatible hydroelectricity for small businesses and rural households – Madagascar
Madagascar | Energy and Climate
Based on a preliminary study from 2013 and a feasibility study carried out by AIDER in 2019, a detailed design study of the project is developed for the Small Hydroelectric Power Plant (PCH) of Mandialaza. The role of Skat is to accompany the different stages of the work and provide the necessary technical support to ensure the quality of the study, with a focus on the hydrology and civil engineering parts as well as hydraulic- engineering structures up to the turbine.
Promoting Rural Electrification in Myanmar
Myanmar | Energy and Climate
The aim of the Project is to increase the number of MHP projects and widen outreach to beneficiaries including remote mountainous area communities.
Mid-term evaluation of the project “Climate-friendly cooking technologies, Kenya and Senegal”
Global | Energy and Climate
Subject to this evaluation is the project “Climate-friendly cooking technologies, Kenia and Senegal. The project aims to demonstrate an innovative improved cooking stoves (ICS) market transformation strategy to significantly increase the level of ICS production and sales.
IRENA Expert Follow-up Event on Hydropower
Global | Energy and Climate
Plan an “Expert follow-up Event on Hydropower” for 3 days with about 80 participants. The participants will gain a common understanding of the role which hydropower can play in the renewables energy mix and the policy and general framework which is required to pave the way for hydropower development.
