520 3    |a The Upper Rioni Pilot Watershed analysis was produced within the framework of the Integrated Natural Resources Management in Watersheds of Georgia (INRMW) Program. It provides energy analysis for Upper Rioni Pilot Watershed Area, covering the Ambrolauri and Oni municipalities, as selected by the INRMW programin 2011. This analysis is the first one of a series of four, dealing with an upstream and downstream watershed ares for both the Rioni and Alazani rivers. The Sustainable Development and Policy (SDAP) Center conducted this analysis under the contract signed with Winrock International Institute for Agricultural Development (Prime Contract # AID- 114-LA-10-00004 INRMW, Subcontract # 6331-11-01) within Activity 2: Detailed Assessments and Community Stakeholder Engagement. The goal of the energy component of the GLOWS INRMW program is to empower the local government officials with the management opportunities for improving the watershed energy consumption, distribution and resource extraction in a sustainable manner. To fulfill this task the first stage of the project’s energy component required basic energy statistics and detailed energy analysis of the pilot watersheds. For this reason a comprehensive background energy analysis was conducted for four pilot watersheds based on results of energy data collected from surveys. The Watershed Energy Analysis goals are as follows:  Assess local energy resources within 4 pilot watershed areas of Alazani and Rioni River Basins (with a special emphasis on renewable resources - RE);  Determine current energy consumption and production patterns;  Identify opportunities to reduce energy consumption through the adoption of energyefficiency (EE) investments and practices. The outputs of the Watershed Energy Analysis will form the basis for Energy Passports of municipalities within the Watersheds (detailed description of energy passports and the methodology to develop them are given in Annex 1). Although such an analytical document as presented here may be used independently, it will provide an instantaneous snapshot of the current energy situation. The Energy Passport can be systematically updated with new data inputs in the future. Energy planning for a geographical area provides an opportunity for reorganizing the energy consumption and distribution trends so that they can be managed more efficiently in the future. To reach this goal it was envisioned to develop a software energy planning tool that is not a model of any particular energy system, but rather an instrument that can be used to create models of different energy systems, called in this project “Energy Passports”, where each requires its own unique data structures. It is expected that energy planning software tool will be used for forecasting energy balances and development of the energy action plans for each watershed.
