In the wake of two oil crises in the 1970s, the society came together to improve energy efficiency which led Japan’s energy conservation to the highest level amongst the world. Through the experience, Japan holds a great comparative advantage in the field of energy efficiency and conservation in terms of policy, institution and technology. The Knowledge Co-Creation Program has three courses: (A) Industry, (B) Commercial and Residential, and (C) Transportation and Policy development.
Participants formulate action plans to be implemented by their own organizations to improve energy efficiency in industrial sector.
Whole Course Outputs:
(1) Study the energy situation and policies of their home countries and identify their own issues.
(2) Understand Japan’s energy conservation policies, regulations, energy conservation methods and promotion of energy efficiency.
(3) Understand specific methods of energy efficiency, effectiveness and benefits through good practices for energy conservation in industrial sector and then understand differences and applicability of measures by comparing them with current situation of home country.
