CEATI International has invited EVO to lead in the development of a common protocol for measuring the impact of Demand Response (DR) programs conducted by electricity suppliers.

EVO has tried to influence the draft ISO Standard 50001 where the opportunity to harmonize with IPMVP is being missed. We believe that IPMVP has not been properly understood.  And we believe you can help – but please act quickly. Public input is our last hope, during the voting stage which closes August 31st. Voting is done by standard setting bodies in the 42 participating countries. Votes can be positive, negative or abstain. Comments can be added. So we encourage IPMVP supporters to approach the right people in their own countries NOW. Read More on this draft Standard.

The M&V course can help the energy professionals in China further in measurement and verification.  Contact Harry ZHANG, Energy & Carbon Services.  Email: harry.zhang@sgs.com  Mobile:  +86 (0) 139 2650 9900 or Office: +86 (0)755 8637 5345
