As part of this year’s AJEEP Scheme 5 program, ECCJ implemented the CN diagnosis in the ASEAN region. This year, two CN diagnoses were scheduled for the industrial sector, and Lao Coca-Cola was selected as the second CN diagnosis site, where CN diagnosis were implemented for three days from September 30 to October 2, 2024. After explaining the CN project formation, CN guidelines, and practical CN diagnosis method, the CN diagnosis was implemented at an actual factory. The factory’s energy manager, Lao government officials (DEEP/MEM), and ACE participated, and Japanese experts provided guidance on the CN diagnosis.
(1) Explained CN project formation, CN guidelines, and practical CN diagnosis procedures, ensuring understanding by those responsible for CN diagnosis.
(2) Confirmed the questions from ECCJ through the interviews based on preliminary survey data.
(3) Proposed nine primary proposals for CN measures and energy conservation measures based on the confirmation of facility operating conditions through the on-site survey, data measurement and data analysis.
ECCJ will calculate CO2 reductions for these proposals and continue discussions with the diagnosed company toward the formulation of a med- to long-term plan.
(4) An online meeting will be held in mid-November after summarizing the results, and ECCJ will support the preparation of the report on the CN diagnosis results by the mid-term check meeting in February.
(5) Taking the company’s production and investment plans into consideration, ECCJ aim to formulate a med- to long-term plan for CO2 reduction by August, next year. As part of this effort, ECCJ will promote the adoption of new Japanese technologies for CO2 reduction, contributing to the benefit of Japanese companies.
(6) Four officials from the Lao PDR government (DEEP/MEM) participated in this CN diagnosis, allowing for extensive information exchange with Lao Coca-Cola. Moving forward, ECCJ will continue to provide support through close cooperation with government officials and thorough information sharing with ACE.
