REEEP programmes follow a transparent process: a bottom-up approach to identify, select and monitor projects

REEEP is a “grant organisation“ focusing on targeted innovative interventions

An independent Analytical and Synthesis Study confirms the high effectiveness of REEEP projects 90% of projects were rated successful against their stated objective REEEP developed good practices in providing renewable energy and energy efficient services to the poor Promotion of ESCO schemes and working with small and medium sized businesses are particularly effective Stakeholder participation is a central feature of REEEP projects and an instrumental factor in successes REEEP is a relatively small player in the countries and sectors where it acts, but has proportionally high results for the level of funds disbursed Projects often have the desired catalyst effect in market development.

90% of projects were rated successful against their stated objective

REEEP developed good practices in providing renewable energy and energy efficient services to the poor

Promotion of ESCO schemes and working with small and medium sized businesses are particularly effective

Stakeholder participation is a central feature of REEEP projects and an instrumental factor in successes

REEEP is a relatively small player in the countries and sectors where it acts, but has proportionally high results for the level of funds disbursed

Projects often have the desired catalyst effect in market development.

REEEP program activities have a testified high success rate

Emerging lessons low-carbon energy transition Public sector plays a key role; End-use energy efficiency policy – standards & labelling are most effective; Mixed experience with CDM - grid connected RE and industrial energy efficiency benefit; Solar water heating has reached commercial stage and is ready for scale-up; Rural electrification initiatives focus on electricity – do not address thermal needs; Technology neutrality = better outcomes; Financing PPPs – public sector procedures is the key barrier; Significant local finance is available – more institutional structures are needed; Microfinance can play a key role – CSFs – transaction costs, long term finance, risk management.

REEEP’s innovative delivery replication market creation policy Brazilian Hydro Fund: Has been replicated into an overall RES fund EE Street Lightning in India: Expended from 3 to 10 cities and linked to CDM China Wind Energy Roadmap: Planning support for China Wind Market Social Merchant Bank: Innovative End-User financing of small RES West Africa Modern Energy Fund: $12m in 76 SME in Ghana, Mali and Senegal Uganda SWHS Policy: Integrated policy combining buildings and power sector Argentina Energy Policy: Study to establish RE targets in Argentina Regional Policy for Guanajato: Energy policy for a Mexican state. EE in Municipal Water Supply: Transfer of South African experience to India

Sharing learning’s is a real value of a partnership The greatest barrier for Energy Efficiency is lack of information, institutional support and not technology Standards and labels are the most effective policy for end-use EE SWH are the most effective low carbon energy option in cities and buildings Rural energy programmes must address the thermal energy needs and generate income to ensure success Local funds are available but cannot be utilised due the lack of instruments RE & EE policy solutions have to be tailor-made to best fit into national circumstances – there is no best solution Activities only deliver sustainable results if they are part of the whole energy value chain The public sector role as a major energy consumer and investor must be mobilised RE & EE have to be an integrated part of energy planning and legislature – this is also true for Low carbon Plan

The greatest barrier for Energy Efficiency is lack of information, institutional support and not technology

Standards and labels are the most effective policy for end-use EE

SWH are the most effective low carbon energy option in cities and buildings

Rural energy programmes must address the thermal energy needs and generate income to ensure success

Local funds are available but cannot be utilised due the lack of instruments

RE & EE policy solutions have to be tailor-made to best fit into national circumstances – there is no best solution

Activities only deliver sustainable results if they are part of the whole energy value chain

The public sector role as a major energy consumer and investor must be mobilised

RE & EE have to be an integrated part of energy planning and legislature – this is also true for Low carbon Plan
