The development objective of the Urban Scale Building Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Project for China is to improve selected national and city-level policies for (1) the promotion of low-carbon, adaptive and livable urban forms; (2) an increase in energy efficiency in public and commercial buildings; and (3) the scale-up of commercially viable rooftop solar PV deployment. The global environment objective of the proposed project is to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from buildings in selected Chinese cities by supporting improved policy making and implementation in promoting low-carbon, adaptive and livable urban forms, increasing energy efficiency in public and commercial buildings, and scaling up commercially viable rooftop solar Photovoltaic (PV) deployment. There are four components to the project, the first component of the project is promoting the development of low-carbon, adaptive and livable urban forms; the second component is improving energy efficiency in public and commercial buildings; the third component is scaling-up commercially viable rooftop solar PV deployment; and final fourth component is project management.
