More attendees would like more workshops in future and wish to here more about the SA context

• We need more SA experience stories on Escos in municipalities & how barriers such as regulations can be dealt with. Thank you for the opportunity

• The concept was fairly new to me , in as much as how good it is, we need to explore more on energy perfomance contracting as well as energy supply contracting.

• The whole workshop was good but it must be relevant to SA. Situation and currency. It is up to the facilitator to make the workshop live.

• Follow up workshops will be of assistance.

• Need solutions on how to implement in RSA. Need indepth investigation of the legal framework.

• The workshop will be appreciated in the next financial year 2015/16 or.

• At times hearing problems
