Energy in bilateral cooperation –

some examples

Nepal

In 1999 a 5 year programme (about USD 20M) Improved cooking stoves. – 15.000 have

been realised to date Electricity from micro-hydropower plants –

300 kW are installed to date Solar energy to households – about 8.000

installations have been realised to date

Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples

Burkina Faso

On the 2nd 5-year programme (about USD 40M) Institutional strengthening – frameworks Traditional energy RET and EE (industry + household/public

sector + norms for buildings) Rural electrification – demonstration projects

Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples

Earmarked funds for RET and EE development to WB and ADB

Affrei – demonstration programme - “next generation” of energy projects from

government-led to private-led rural electrification/ transformation

- cross-sectoral approach UNEP/Risø and CTI Promote sustainable energy solutions

Page 10: Danish Development Cooperation

Energy under MIFRESTA – some

examples Projects on

- RET (wind and solar)- EE (building sector in South Africa) - Institutional strengthening – planning, frameworks in a number of African and Asian Countries

Projects in economies in transition - Improved heating systems- District heating

Lessons Learned Organisational set-up is the single most

important thingTop down vs Buttom up. Demonstration projects – scaling up to

make a differencePrivate sector involvement in all seizes
