With this background, the UNDP implemented the ‘Solar for Health’ project, funded by Germany through KfW Bank, which included a number of actions from energy auditing public hospital facilities for the implementation of various energy efficiency and renewable energy projects as well as the development of a strategy to enhance the energy performance of Lebanese public hospitals, which is covered in the present report. Furthermore, and as part of the National Sustainable Energy Strategy for the Lebanese Health Care Sector, the World Health Organization (WHO) assessed hospital medical equipment to identify their energy characteristics and needs, using a combination of desk review and field visits for a mix of private and public hospitals. Based on this, WHO developed energy-saving criteria for medical equipment per hospital department, the outcomes and results of which are included in this assessment.
