INPUTS FOR THE CCXG GLOBAL FORUM DISCUSSION
ON SCALING-UP AND REPLICATION
March 2014

Senior Carbon Manager
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CLIMATE CHANGE
2. THE QUESTIONS
2
1. How has EBRD worked with actors at
international, national and local levels to
identify and tackle barriers to replication and
scaling-up?
2. How can useful lessons and information on
barriers be shared and used for scaling up
and replicating climate finance interventions?
3. SCOPE
1. Introduction to the European Bank and
Reconstruction and Development, and the
Sustainable Energy Initiative
2. Scaling-up and replication, an embedded
consideration in the Bankโs operations
(transition impact, SEI):
โข Ingredients to success
โข Systematic development approach
โข Market demand driven
3. Robust MRV, enabling demonstration effects
and sharing of information.

promote transition to market economies in 34 countries from
Central Europe to Central Asia

5. EBRD REGION โ CHARACTERISTICS
AND BARRIERS
EBRD Region
characteristics:
โข High share of heavy
industry
โข Ageing infrastructure
โข High energy and
carbon intensity
โข Substantial potential
for renewable energy
resources
โข Energy efficiency
potential
externalities and
market failures:
โข Difficult access to
finance (particularly for
SME)
โข Lack of information
and (management)
skills
โข Regulatory
constraints, incl. a lack
of market-based
pricing energy
(subsidized) and
no/low carbon prices.

6. BARRIERS TO SEI (FURTHER)
Credit-related risks
โข high perceived credit risks
โข long pay-back period for investments in energy supply and utilities
โข commercial loans not readily available
Behavioural and technology-related
โข information barriers: consumers have a high discount rate for decisions on EE
investments (based on first costs rather than lifecycle savings)
โข limited market availability of energy efficient technologies
Pricing and policy
โข limited policy support, capacity and expertise
โข energy tariffs not reflective of the costs of generation externalities
โข low collection rates (ETCs)
โข reforms to support renewable developers inadequate in some CoOs
โข unclear carbon pricing signals
โข inadequate pace of industrial restructuring

7. THE SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
INITIATIVE
โข The EBRD has been
engaged in sustainable
energy finance since its
establishment.
โข In 2006, the EBRD
launched the Sustainable
Energy Initiative to deal with
energy efficiency and
climate change (responding
to G8 call).
โข The EBRD was the first
MDB with a dedicated pool
of technical experts in-
house.
โข In 2013, the EBRD
launched Sustainable
Resource Initiative which
includes SEI, materials
efficiency and water
efficiency.

8. SEI FINANCE BY BUSINESS AREAS
โข From 2006 to 2013, SEI
finance amounts to โฌ13.4
billion.
โข SEI business volume has
shown an increasing trend
since 2006, with a peak in
2011 (โฌ2.6 billion).
โข Cleaner energy production
and corporate EE account
for the bulk of SEI
investments since 2006.
โข Since 2006, the share of
SEFFs and renewable
energy projects has
increased significantly. 0

Mainstreaming: SEI Projects
across Bankโs Investment
Portfolio (set investment targets)
Enabling Regulations:
Working with
governments to support
development of a strong
institutional and regulatory
framework that
incentivises sustainable
energy (carbon pricing,
energy efficiency
regulations, feed-in tariffs)
Technical Assistance:
to overcome barriers:
market analysis, LEME
development, energy
audits, training and
awareness raising
Incentives: (grant co-
financing) to reward
performance, attract early
adopters / demonstration
projects and address
affordability constraints

12. SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FINANCING FACILITIES
CATALYSING AND RESPONDING TO DEMAND
โข Local financial institutions on-lend funds to small and
medium-sized businesses, corporate and residential
borrowers.
โข The potential demand is demonstrated with a market study
and origination of a project pipeline.
โข Finance is provided for energy efficiency and small-scale
renewable energy projects.
โข SEFFs establish project implementation teams who support
(and train) local financial institutions and their clients.
โข SEFFs have a robust MRV regime, whereby incentives are
typically paid upon verified project completion.
SEFFs are effective in reaching a wide range of small and
medium-sized business and residential clients

transactions, and herein involving and leveraging private finance
sector.
โข Bring together the critical technical and financial components required
to facilitate and to add value to sustainable energy investment
opportunities.
โข Increase awareness of the benefits of sustainable energy investments
and promotes โbest practiceโ technical solutions, builds skills.
For climate finance to become a viable banking product, the EBRD
SEFF model uses a โPilot > Prove > Propagateโ approach to kick-
start and scale-up, in parallel with related โPolicyโ approaches

14. FACILITY
Turkish Sustainable Energy Financing Facility
(TurSEFF) provides local banks with credit lines for
sustainable energy investments in the residential,
industrial and commercial sectors (sub-loans of up
to โฌ5 million).
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
โข โฌ2.4 million provided by the Climate
Investment Funds and โฌ7.5 million from the EU
were used for project implementation support.
โข This included supporting partner banks with
pipeline development, loan appraisals, energy
audits, promoting the facility and training.
INNOVATIVE FINANCIAL MIX
EBRD loans $222 million
of which SEI $222 million
CTF concessional loan $47 million
JBIC loans $ 20 million
Total facility value $ 289 million
5 PARTICIPATING BANKS
ESTIMATED IMPACT
Over 370 sub-projects financed through five partner
banks by the end of 2012 are estimated to result in:
โข Energy savings: 3,300 GWh/year
โข Emission reductions: 645,210 tCO2/year
SEFF EXAMPLE TURKEY
15. SHARING
โข Keep the eye on delivery; focus on โwhat works, when it starts workingโ.
โข Demonstration projects are key in support of the bigger picture policy dialogue,
and resulting regulatory reform to an enabling environment.
โข Most SEI programmes have dedicated websites in local and English languages.
โข Standardise where possible, e.g. the EBRD is carrying out a number of
standardised carbon emission factor studies and publishes these.
โข Climate Finance MRV essential to learn and share results (e.g. J-MDB Report).
โข Co-ordination between stakeholders, e.g. recent donor co-ordination meeting on
the Kazakh emissions trading scheme in Astana.
