6. Carbon Markets Development
Sustainable Energy Initiative
SEI Results 2006- 2010:– EBRD SEI investments of € 6.1 billion for total project value of over €32 billion – EBRD SEI financing account on average for 20% of the Bank’s total investment, (24% in 2010)– Annual emission reduction of 37 million tons of CO2
The SEI responds to the specific needs of the energy transition in the EBRD region,
as well as to the EU call for the IFIs to scale-up climate change mitigation investment.

Barriers to sustainable energy financingBarriers to sustainable energy financing
– Uncertainties about Uncertainties about market demand market demand for EE financing; lack of for EE financing; lack of reliable datareliable data
– Low awareness Low awareness about the sustainable energy and energy saving concepts;about the sustainable energy and energy saving concepts;
– Skeptical attitudeSkeptical attitude on the clients’ side on the clients’ side about the technical risks and financial about the technical risks and financial benefits of energy efficiencybenefits of energy efficiency
– Legal enforcement Legal enforcement in the property and residential sectorin the property and residential sector
– Non-supportive Non-supportive procurement rulesprocurement rules
– Public budgeting Public budgeting rules (”pressure to spend”)rules (”pressure to spend”)
– AccountingAccounting problems (investment vs. operating costs); lack of ”off-balance problems (investment vs. operating costs); lack of ”off-balance sheet” solutionssheet” solutions
– Lack of specific structures for Lack of specific structures for implementationimplementation; limited technical expertise for ; limited technical expertise for appraisal and risk assessment appraisal and risk assessment

EBRD integrated approach EBRD integrated approach Tailor made financing vehicles reflecting country and market specifics:
– REECL-type (Bulgaria);– SlovSEFF type (Slovakia case study see next slide for summary) – EEFF, RoSEFF (Romania) SME Sustainable Energy Financing Facility
Capacity building: local banks, technical consultants & engineers, local authorities
Awareness raising: general public, project stakeholders, authorities Corporate sector: technology and service providers, utilities, project
developers; Policy dialogue: assistance on development/upgrade of supportive
legal and regulatory framework: legislation; regulations, sustainable energy Action Plans
High leverage of national (Donor funded) support programs.
Example: SLOVAK SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FINANCING FACILITY EE, RE AND RESIDENTIAL HOUSING ASSOCIATIONS Drivers: high energy intensity, significant potential for energy savings, closure of Bohunice Nuclear Plant. EBRD Credit Line: €60 million Framework of loans to local banks (four to date) for on-lending to enterprises and housing associations to make better use of their energy resources. Grant Support: Bohunice International Decommissioning and Support Fund (BIDSF) of €15 million financing technical assistance (€2.5 M), incentives to sub-borrowers (€ 10 M) and participating local banks (€2.5 M).
Results to date – Portfolio of projects €56.4 million with a pipeline for the remaining €3.4 million (under preparation) – 250 residential energy efficiency projects– 41 industrial energy efficiency and/or renewable energy projects
Estimated Impact – 1,105,000m2 of floor area refurbished and 46,000 people benefiting from lower energy bills and better thermal
comfort; an estimated 14,316 households have been targeted – Estimated energy savings of 32%, twice as much as initially foreseen – 279,197 MWh/a of primary energy savings and 63,120 tCO2 emission reductions per year; – Grant per CO2 12.5 EUR/ton, Investment per CO2 81.1 EUR/ton;– Every EUR of Donor Support received has resulted in energy savings of 355kWH;– One new job created for every EUR 9,000 of investment*, meaning SLOVSEFF has helped in the creation of
8,535 jobs so far. * According to methodology indicated by the Slovakian Authorities.

Energy Efficiency in Public Buidlings
Aim to support development of public EPC market in CEE and CIS, initially: Romania, Bulgaria,Russia and Ukraine
Developing a suitable EPC-model for the Romanian market Use initial TA to assess market and identify main obstacles Implement capacity building programme to support cities,
ESCOs and banks Provide initial financing through ESCO financing, commercial
banks or dedicated funds Saving energy, reducing public spending and GHG-emmissions
EPC is included in the Romanian National Energy Policy
– Government Ordinance (GO) 22/2008 (transposed from 2006/32/EC)
Defines the National Energy Policy Defines ESCOs and energy services Defines EPC Defines financing instruments for EPC-projects
– Government Decision (GD) 163/2004 defines the National Energy Efficiency Strategy (targets)
– GD 1661/2008 identifies efficiency measures (incl. EPC)
– National Strategy for Energy Efficiency – under revision

Driving force: • Decision makers who take on the responsibility
Reliable legal framework: • Procurement: EPC allowed, tender procedure formally approved (guideline
by ANRMAP) Standardized procedures and contracts approved by ANRMAP:
• Reliability, transparency, time and cost effectiveness for implementation• Need to ensure obligations under EPC do not count as municipal debt• Need to ensure energy savings can be re-allocated to payments under
EPC over life of contract• Need to ensure ESCOs are free to assign payments under EPC as basis
for financing
