 The LEEAP describes actions to reach energy efficiency targets and thus, improve air quality. It also includes monitoring and energy management. Trough establishing a common understanding of the starting point with an initial quantification of the scale of the problem, LEEAPs are the first step in the right direction for a safer, healthier, and greener city. [[Local Energy Efficiency Action Plan|Read more]] to find out how a LEEAP will help Mongolia and especially Ulaanbaatar to save energy and CO<sub>2</sub>-emissions.
-Improving the energy efficiency of (public) buildings also requires legal groundwork. Therefore, it is important to improve the management of public investments, and to introduce new standards to improve energy efficiency through better planning, budgeting, financing, implementation and monitoring of project activities. The focus of the governance advisory work was therefore on enriching the core system with institutional quality and principles of good governance. Read more about this and on why energy efficiency is a particularly gender-sensitive topic in the [[Governance|Governance chapter]].

-The building of capacities in public and private sector institutions needs to be strengthened on different levels if you want to integrate know-how in many different areas. [[Capacity Building & Finance|Read more]] on this issue in an interview about the need to develop a new financing scheme for energy efficient houses, and on the first officially certified green building in Mongolia.

-Mongolia is characterised by extreme climatic conditions with short summers and long, cold winters, which make Ulaanbaatar the coldest capital in the world. As of 2020, the city is home to 411,000 households, 221,000 of whom live in informal settlements called “ger districts”.
+[[Mongolia Energy Situation|Mongolia]] is characterised by extreme climatic conditions with short summers and long, cold winters, which make Ulaanbaatar the coldest capital in the world. As of 2020, the city is home to 411,000 households, 221,000 of whom live in informal settlements called “ger districts”.
 The ger districts are mostly off-grid areas with limited access to electricity, water, sanitation, heat supply, and public transport. In their brick-and-mortar houses and gers with high energy loss, households burn coal in stoves and use latrines in temperatures regularly dropping below minus 20°C. This makes the city a pollution hub, and exposes it to a public health crisis.

 Hence, energy efficiency in the building sector is a crucial topic with extensive dimensions. Without good insulation, winter times mean cold buildings and devastating air pollution. A problem that is most hazardous for children and elderly people, but harms everyone. For example, miscarriages are 3.6 times more likely to happen during coal burning months, and one in 10 deaths is attributable to air pollution, 80% of which is caused in the ger districts. Low room temperatures in public and private buildings are an additional acute health hazard during the winter season. At the same time, Mongolia has joined the Paris Climate Agreement and pledged to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. If widely applied, the measures to improve energy efficiency in the building sector can also significantly reduce Mongolia's CO<sub>2</sub> emissions - currently ranked 8th in the world on a per capita basis - and thus fulfil the Paris Climate Agreement.

 As this cooperation was established on existing activities, two projects were merged: The SDC-funded ”Public Investment in Energy Efficiency Phase 2“ (PIE-2), and the German Government funded “Energy Efficiency Building Refurbishment in Mongolia“ (EEP). The two projects joined forces, and worked together along with the MUB on four main topics on different implementation levels:
-#Adopting the Local Energy Efficiency Action Plan for the construction sector (see chapter “[[Local Energy Efficiency Action Plan|LEEAP]]”).
