Field Testing of the Tool for Rapid Assessment of City Energy (TRACE) in Quezon City, Philippines and Recommendations

The Quezon City Energy Efficiency Report documents the findings from a two week study of energy use and efficiency opportunities during February 2010. The study was undertaken as part of a wider program of work commissioned by the World Bank’s Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) to field test and validate an early version of the Energy Efficient Cities Initiative Rapid Assessment Framework (RAF).

 

The RAF is a novel tool that quickly diagnoses inefficient energy performance across a city’s systems and offers a range of potential solutions embedded within implementation guidance and case studies. The study therefore had two objectives: to provide Quezon City Government (QCG) with recommendations to improve energy performance and to validate and test the RAF.
