Abstract
This paper addresses the challenges and opportunities electricity-demand growth and management respectively bring. It presents an overview of energy-efficiency initiatives being implemented in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and how the Regulation & Supervision Bureau (the Bureau) supports and leads some of these, such as demand side management. This paper looks in particular at the role regulatory frameworks play in developing incentive schemes to facilitate the involvement of sector stakeholders in energy efficiency. Finally, this paper provides examples of pilot schemes carried out by the Bureau's Powerwise office, to study potential electricity-consumption saving programmes to build a business case for rolling out such schemes on a large-scale.
