The overall objective of this project is to improve the energy efficiency of a series of end-use equipment (refrigeration appliances, air conditioners, lighting, electric motors and fans, heating appliances etc) used in residential and public buildings (schools, hotels, government offices etc) in Nigeria through the introduction of appropriate energy efficiency policies and measures (such as Standards and Labels) and demand-side management programs.<\/p>\n<p>Another objective of the project is to strengthen the regulatory and institutional framework, develop monitoring and enforcement mechanisms, provide training to appliance and equipment professionals, and launch a public outreach campaign to promote energy efficiency in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>The activities to achieve these objectives are designed to enhancing the capacity of all relevant stakeholders at the national level of the concept, nature and potential of energy efficiency; develop policy and legal energy efficiency requirements of end-use appliances in Nigeria; train relevant professionals and carry out public outreaches; and conduct pilot project where 1 million compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) will be distributed in residential and public buildings in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>The project will assist the government of Nigeria to put in place comprehensive energy efficiency policy and legislation. It will help to minimize the building of power stations, helping to save money which will be invested in other sectors. This will consequently help in mitigating the emission of greenhouse gases resulting from generating energy. It will also help to increase Nigerian\u2019s access to electricity.<\/p>\n<p>Working together with all relevant stakeholders and partners, the project will achieve the following four major outcomes to remove the barriers towards the long-term promotion of energy efficiency in Nigeria:<\/p>\n<p>Outcome 1: Improve the capacity of all relevant stakeholders at the national level with regards to the concept, nature and potential of energy efficiency in the residential and public sector<\/p>\n<p>Outcome 2: Development of new energy efficiency legal requirements for selected end-use equipment in Nigeria<\/p>\n<p>Outcome 3: Training of professional stakeholders and public outreach activities and enforcement of new energy efficiency legislation<\/p>\n<p>Outcome 4: Transformation of the lighting market: promotion of energy saving lamps<\/p>\n<p>UNDP Nigeria is seeking to appoint a national consultant as Project Coordinator in the implementation and monitoring of the project as laid out in the logical framework.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Duties and Responsibilities<br \/>\nSummary:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under the direct supervision of the Deputy Country Director, Programmes, and in close cooperation with the Climate Change Programme Coordinator, the International Technical Adviser will provide overall technical guidance, advice and support to the Project Coordinator and the Project Team and assist in the recruitment of local and international consultants.
