The ASEAN Cool Initiative, funded by the Clean Cooling Collaborative (CCC), is geared to revolutionize Malaysia's air conditioning landscape. Led by United for Efficiency (U4E) in collaboration with the International Institute for Energy Conservation (IIEC). Its primary goal is to accelerate the implementation of the ASEAN regional and national policy roadmap for RACs, facilitating a swift transition to the more ambitious Regional Phase II standards outlined in the roadmap.

International Institute for Energy Conservation (IIEC) is providing partnership-cum-support to SDC to demonstrate building integrated renewable energy systems in India, increase the local capacity and stimulate market transformation towards the adoption of renewable energy technologies (BEEP-RE).

Solar water pumps are a cost-effective and more environmentally beneficial option for irrigation. However, overextraction of groundwater is a serious threat posed by solar water pumps as they offer virtually free electricity throughout the day. Thus, greater incentivization is required to motivate the users and promote the use of solar water pumps with judicious use of groundwater. 

IIEC supported GIZ India to explore and document the diverse applications of decentralized renewable energy (DRE) technologies within key stages of the Agriculture, Dairy, and Fishery value chains. The primary objectives involved a comprehensive review of existing literature, reports, and publications to identify suitable DRE technologies applicable to small and marginal farmers.
