The Asian Regional Energy
Initiative of the IEI
Energy efficiency financing mechanisms:
A workshop on Energy Efficiency (EE) Banking Windows and
Guarantee Facilities was held in New Delhi, between the 18th
and 20th January 2006. It was the culmination of a series of
international cross-exchanges included in the UNEP/World Bank
project “Developing Financial Intermediation Mechanisms for EE
Projects in Brazil, China and India” (the 3 CEE Project). The
objective of the 3 CEE Project was to achieve major increases
in lending for EE investments by domestic financial
institutions in the three participating countries. The
project provided for the establishment of an informal Country
Working Group in each country, consisting of representatives
from the local financial and EE communities, and for applied
research and analysis on the most pressing operational topics
in EE financing. It included a series of focused
international cross-exchange activities, involving
practitioners from the three countries, to share experiences
and potential solutions to similar problems. The purpose of
this workshop was to present in-country project experiences as
well as international good practices for developing EE Banking
Windows and Guarantee Facilities for ESCO stakeholders and
financial institutions. For the report on the discussions
that took place at this workshop please
