Raza also highlighted that Energy Desk is aimed toward enhancing the capacities of EE and RE systems through an online “Data management System” for providing seamless access to information, including technical guidelines, manuals, links to energy experts and technology suppliers, and a regular update on training programs and events.
It should be noted that the formal announcement of the Energy Desk was made at the first-ever “Energy Performance Awards” 2022 held earlier at Islamabad. The project is working closely with government to promote inclusive and sustainable industrial development in line with its key thematic areas, one being energy & environment.
