Country: MALAYSIA

Description of the assignment: Component Manager cum Lead Consultant (CM) for Component 4:

Information and Awareness Enhancement (Malaysians only)

Project name: Building Sector Energy Efficiency Project (BSEEP)

Period of assignment/services (if applicable): 10 man-months, based at the Environment and

Energy Branch of Public Works Department (JKR-CAST)

Proposal should be submitted by email to [email protected] no later than 24 Dec 2011, 5pm

Any request for clarification must be sent in writing, or by standard electronic communication to the

1. BACKGROUND

Building Sector Energy Efficiency Project (BSEEP) has for its goal the reduction in the annual

growth rate of GHG emissions from the Malaysia buildings sector. The project objective is the

improvement of the energy utilization efficiency in Malaysian buildings, particularly those in the

commercial and government sectors, by promoting the energy conserving design of new buildings

and by improving the energy utilization efficiency in the operation of existing buildings. The

realization of this objective will be facilitated through the removal of barriers to the uptake of

building energy efficiency technologies, systems, and practices.

In general, EE is not fully employed in the design, operation and maintenance of buildings and

building services in the country. The main reason for this is the existence of various barriers which

include: (1) Institutional barriers (e.g., lack of national institutional framework to implement EE

application in buildings); (2) Policy and Regulatory barriers (e.g., inadequate enforcement of building

EE policies; lack of policies regarding incentives for EE building technology applications, non-

mandatory compliance to the building EE requirements stipulated in the UBBL); (3) Financial

barriers (e.g., high cost of building EE technologies and building materials; and, lack of financing

Page 2: INDIVIDUAL CONSULTANT PROCUREMENT NOTICEbseep.weebly.com/uploads/8/0/7/2/8072374/component... · Project name: Building Sector Energy Efficiency Project (BSEEP) Period of assignment/services

schemes to finance building EE projects); (4) Information and awareness barriers (e.g., low level of

awareness about building EE applications; and, lack of information on the costs and benefits of

building EE applications; and, (5) Technical barriers (e.g., lack of technical expertise in EE building

architectural design and in the utilization of EE technologies; limited experience with the technical,

economic and environmental aspects of EE buildings; and, lack of experience in incorporating

measures and technologies to improve the energy utilization efficiency in new and existing buildings.

To address the barriers in Component 4: Information and Awareness Enhancement, UNDP seeks to

engage a Component Manager cum Lead Consultant (CM) who understands the above context and

able to produce the outputs and fulfill the below criteria.

1. BACKGROUND

Building Sector Energy Efficiency Project (BSEEP) has for its goal the reduction in the annual

growth rate of GHG emissions from the Malaysia buildings sector. The project objective is the

improvement of the energy utilization efficiency in Malaysian buildings, particularly those in the

commercial and government sectors, by promoting the energy conserving design of new buildings

and by improving the energy utilization efficiency in the operation of existing buildings. The

realization of this objective will be facilitated through the removal of barriers to the uptake of

building energy efficiency technologies, systems, and practices.

In general, EE is not fully employed in the design, operation and maintenance of buildings and

building services in the country. The main reason for this is the existence of various barriers which

include: (1) Institutional barriers (e.g., lack of national institutional framework to implement EE

application in buildings); (2) Policy and Regulatory barriers (e.g., inadequate enforcement of building

EE policies; lack of policies regarding incentives for EE building technology applications, non-

mandatory compliance to the building EE requirements stipulated in the UBBL); (3) Financial

barriers (e.g., high cost of building EE technologies and building materials; and, lack of financing

schemes to finance building EE projects); (4) Information and awareness barriers (e.g., low level of

awareness about building EE applications; and, lack of information on the costs and benefits of

building EE applications; and, (5) Technical barriers (e.g., lack of technical expertise in EE building

architectural design and in the utilization of EE technologies; limited experience with the technical,

economic and environmental aspects of EE buildings; and, lack of experience in incorporating

measures and technologies to improve the energy utilization efficiency in new and existing buildings.

To address the barriers in Component 4: Information and Awareness Enhancement, UNDP seeks to

engage a Component Consultant (CC) who understands the above context and to assist the

Component Manager (CM) cum Lead Consultant in producing the outputs and fulfilling the below

criteria.
