On Monday, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI-Rwanda) in collaboration with the Rwanda Ministry of Infrastructure organized an inception meeting with PwC India
team to conduct detailed energy audits of 13 facilities in Rwanda.
According to the Experts, Energy efficiency helps meet Rwanda’s NDC mitigation actions.

The project is funded by Korea’s Ministry of Economic and Finance under the Korea Green New Deal Fund (KGNDF) established within GGGI Headquarter.
These detailed energy audits will help in coming up with a detailed market assessment of energy efficiency potential in Rwanda under the Non-Residential buildings sector.
