We
develop a
concrete concept for the roll-out of combined demand response and EE options in
China through so-called Networks for Energy Efficiency (LEEN), which have been
developed to spread out through small networks of companies (10-15) the
experience on energy efficiency. This helps lowering learning and transaction
costs for the companies.
These networks
are well adapted to the spread of demand response options also and their
concept shall be developed further in this direction.
The networks
have a large success in Germany with respect to the spreading of EE options in
industry and services.
China has had experience with the networks and is looking at them in the 13th 5-years plan.
