SRI LANKA'S COMMITMENT
To The Paris Agreement And Net Zero 2050
Sri Lanka has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 14.5% by 2030 compared to business-as-usual levels, with a broader goal of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 under the Paris Agreement. A key focus of Sri Lanka’s climate strategy involves enhancing energy efficiency across its government and commercial buildings, which are significant contributors to the nation’s energy consumption and carbon emissions.
However, Sri Lanka faces challenges such as outdated infrastructure and financial constraints that limit the adoption of energy-efficient technologies. ESCO Financial helps Sri Lanka overcome these challenges through its Energy Efficiency-as-a-Service (EEaaS) model, which provides the capital necessary to upgrade critical energy systems. This includes modernizing HVAC units, boilers, chillers, smart controls, motors, compressors, air handling units, and lighting systems, leading to substantial reductions in energy consumption and GHG emissions.
The International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) is essential in ensuring that Sri Lanka’s energy efficiency measures result in measurable carbon reductions. By applying IPMVP, Sri Lanka can demonstrate the effectiveness of its initiatives, supporting its Paris Agreement commitments and attracting further international investment.
Sri Lanka also faces challenges in managing waste, particularly in reducing methane emissions from landfills. ESCO Financial’s Waste-to-Energy-as-a-Service (WtEaaS) model provides a sustainable solution by converting waste into energy, reducing landfill reliance, and aligning with Sri Lanka’s Paris Agreement goals. This approach accelerates Sri Lanka’s progress toward achieving Net Zero by 2050, contributing to both environmental sustainability and energy generation.
