The project will support the establishment, pilot testing and commercial demon-stration of market-oriented Energy Management Companies (EMCs) that will promote investments in energy-efficient technology through energy performance contracting. The project will start in three provinces, and after a pilot phase will be expanded to other parts of the country, and may involve more varied applications such as leasing or Chinese-foreign joint ventures. The project will also develop a national energy conservation information dissemination center to gather informa-tion and lessons learned on energy efficiency measures and disseminate informa-tion on the technical and financial results of these measures, targeting enterprise managers.
