World Bank Releases Toolkit on Energy Efficient Lighting

April 2010: The World Bank Group and its Energy Sector Management Assitance Progamme (ESMAP) have produced a toolkit for efficient lighting programmes, based on compact fluorescent lamps, that compiles and shares operational (design, financing and implementation) elements, documents, lessons learned, results and other relevant data.

The Toolkit seeks to share operational documents from past projects to help inform new ones and includes key implementation/operational aspects, such as economic analysis and financial analysis (including carbon financing), elements of programme design, and methodologies. [CFL Toolkit Website]
