Energy Efficiency in Public and Private Sector Serbia and Western Balkans Belgrade, 15 December 2015

The Sustainable Energy Initiative (SEI) 15 December  The EBRD has been engaged in sustainable energy finance since its establishment  In 2006, the EBRD launched the SEI to address the twin challenges of energy efficiency and climate change  The EBRD was the first MDB with a dedicated pool of technical experts in-house  In 2009, the EBRD became the first MDB to set itself a carbon emissions target  In mid-2014, the EBRD has already exceeded the three year ( ) target under the UN’s Sustainable Energy for All initiative The EBRD’s countries of operations:  high share of heavy industry  ageing infrastructure  high energy intensity  a lack of market-based pricing for energy Therefore EBRD initiated and invested in Sustainable energy: €16.4 billion since 2006

SEI Objectives  Scale up energy efficiency and renewable energy investments  Develop financing instruments to support and leverage private sector sustainable energy investment  Improve the business environment for such investments through policy dialogue, regulatory reform and capacity-building  Work closely with donors to address key barriers to energy efficiency, with technical cooperation and investment grants  Mainstream sustainable energy across EBRD sectors of activity including the corporate, financial, municipal and large-scale infrastructure sectors 15 December

SEI Serbia At a glance:  36 projects were signed  €636 million total financing committed for energy efficiency and renewable energy  1 million tonnes of CO2 expected to be saved per annum due to the investments 15 December

The SEI business model 15 December POLICY DIALOGUE PROJECTS AND INVESTMENTS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE Projects across SEI areas Technical assistance to overcome barriers: market analysis, energy audits, training awareness raising, grant co-financing to provide appropriate incentives and address affordability constraints Working with governments to support development of a strong institutional and regulatory framework that incentivises sustainable energy

Example public sector in Western Balkans: EBRD’s Regional Energy Efficiency Programme (REEP) 7 Programmed by the EBRD Supported by the Energy Community Funded by the EU Western Balkans Investment Framework and the Western Balkans Joint Fund Policy dialogue support To create effective legislations for public sector EE EE works & services procurement by preparing procurement law, contract templates and guidelines Transposition of ESCO elements of EU Directives 2006/32/EC and 2012/27/EU General policy dialogue Technical assistance To help local public authorities with procuring EE projects Identification of EE Projects Support municipalities in tender preparation and procurement Financing Credit line through commercial banks (WeBSEFF) Direct financing (WeBSDFF) Direct financing from EBRD for largerprojects Activity area 15 December 2015

Financing Western Balkans Sustainable Energy Financing Facility (“WeBSEFF”) I&II, Extension  Regional facility launched in 2008 and extended twice in 2012 and 2014 (€152 million)  Industrial & municipal Energy Efficiency(EE) and Renewable Energy (RE) projects  Supported by technical assistant and grant component for sub-borrowers  Financially intermediated by 18 partner banks in the region (e.g. Serbia 4 partner banks) Western Balkans Sustainable Energy Direct Financing Facility (“WeBSEDFF”)  Regional facility launched in 2008 and extended in 2012 (€100 million)  Portfolio consists of 15 projects financed up to date (estimated saving 442,000 tCO2 equivalent per annum)  Industrial EE projects, RE, ESCO projects in public sector through ESCO contracts  Supported by technical assistant Large direct investments (more than €6 million) EBRD on all of its projects is guided by SEI model where it provides Technical Assistance (for project identification, implementation), Policy Dialogue Support and Financing provides.

Example public sector, Serbia: Bylaw on Energy Performance Contracting enacted in May 2015 EBRD supported preparation of the ESCO bylaw (primarily contract templates for procuring street lighting and building projects) but important partners joined: Led by an initiative of the Dutch ambassadors, the EU delegation, 17 Ambassadors and 7 other major stakeholders signed a letter supporting the timely conclusion of the ESCO bylaw. The Serbian banking community and private sector companies welcome this bylaw since it reflects best international practice protects both public clients and private sector contractors Municipalities should follow the bylaw and use the contract template. Ministries and their agencies and bodies, the PPP- Commission, should support applicants. 15 December CWC81hQWwAARL-J
