         emissions by developing and promoting a market environment stimulating 
         investments in projects related to Renewable Energy/Energy Efficiency .
       • The project will help in developing policy regulatory framework on RE/EE, 
         Capacity development , energy surveys, implementing Energy Management 
         Systems and pilot projects for demonstration and replication

       • Key objectives of the project are :
          • Driving productivity and competitiveness improvements through key 
           established Punjab export focused SME manufacturing clusters.
          • Building the support infrastructure that underpins collaborative and 
           strategic industry activity.
          • To address the comparative shortcomings i.e. costly factors of production, 
           quality and delivery inefficiencies, lack of demand driven export 
           strategies.
