The study considers the importance of energy efficiency programs and international experiences, and it covers technical aspects like the load characterization, tariff aspects, and identificaction of the energy efficiency measures, estimated savings for lighting, refrigeration and water heaters, and benefitis for residential consumers and Electric Power distributors of Quito. The study includes a legal framework and strategic management tools that could be used during the development of energy efficiency program for the residential sector. In addition, the study develops a sequence of environmental implications including CO2 emission reductions due to electricity generation and other concerns air pollutants emitted to the environment.

New demands cannot be covered by Ecuador National Interconnected System at present, since Ecuador lacks of new infrastructure and energetic projects, although there are old and inefficient sub-transmission networks, with operating characteristics and conditions that make them unsuitable to be considered.

It is for these reasons that this study proposes the use of decentralized forms of energy, like bioenergy, to help meet the country’s future energy needs….
