This endeavor seeks to equip energy practitioners with globally recognized credentials, ensuring they possess the requisite knowledge and skills to navigate the complexities of renewable energy solutions. The program&#8217;s objectives are clear: to deliver top-tier training conducted in the Maldives and certify at least 25 individuals who demonstrate proficiency in renewable energy practices. By adhering to these stringent requirements, the Ministry aims to bolster the country&#8217;s sustainable energy endeavors while fostering a cadre of adept professionals poised to drive positive change within the Maldives&#8217; energy sector.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aeecenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/maldives-1.jpg\" alt=\"maldives-1\" height=\"250\" width=\"400\" title=\"maldives-1\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aeecenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/maldives-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"maldives-2\" height=\"250\" width=\"400\" title=\"maldives-2\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n\t<h3>\u9a6c\u5c14\u4ee3\u592b<\/h3>\n<h5>Contract for Certified Energy Auditor (CEA) training and certification program with the Government of the Republic of Maldives through Ministry of Environment\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h6>February 2020 &#8211; March 2020<\/h6>\n<ul>\n<li>\nPermanent Secretary, Mr. Ajwad Musthafa both inaugurated and closed the first ever Certified Energy Auditor course presented in Maldives in February 2020.\u00a0 The training was organized by the Ministry, under the LECI project and conducted by AEE with participants from both the government and private sector.

A crucial step in achieving these objectives is enhancing institutional capacity to measure and verify the efficacy of energy efficiency investments and resultant savings, aligning with global standards. The World Bank collaborates with SLSEA through its Sustainable Energy Support initiative, aimed at scaling up renewable energy, enhancing energy efficiency, and bolstering institutional capacity. Specifically, within the energy efficiency and cooling domain, the Bank has devised implementation models to encourage investment in energy-saving initiatives within public, commercial, and industrial sectors. However, there exists a necessity to fortify measurement and verification protocols to effectively implement such strategies in Sri Lanka, ensuring transparency and accountability in evaluating their effectiveness. In partnership with SLSEA, the World Bank endeavors to engage a consulting firm to conduct a certification program focused on energy savings monitoring and evaluation (M&amp;V), targeting up to 30 professionals involved in energy management and demand-side efficiency in Sri Lanka. The primary aim is to elevate professional standards in M&amp;V practices by promoting internationally recognized methodologies for quantifying energy usage. The program will particularly emphasize energy efficiency measures, such as building retrofits and appliance replacements, funded through Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs), equipping participants with essential skills. AEE was chosen to facilitate a three-day Fundamental of Measurement &amp; Verification certification training program (CMVP) and exam for 30 candidates, while AEE collaborated with Econoler to offer a two-day Advanced Measurement &amp; Verification Professional course (AMV) to 30 local government and industry professionals.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aeecenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/sri-lanka-1.jpg\" alt=\"sri-lanka-1\" height=\"250\" width=\"400\" title=\"sri-lanka-1\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aeecenter.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/bb-plugin\/img\/pixel.png\" alt=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our business development team works with agencies, governments, NGOs, and local businesses to create programs that support professional and sustainable workforce development and capacity building.
