Marianne Osterkorn
REEEP International Director

2. REEEP
– Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership
1. REEEP is a global private public partnership launched
by the UK government at the WSSD
2. REEEP currently comprises more than 224 partners representing
38 governments, businesses and NGOs all committed to
accelerating the uptake of renewable energy and energy
efficiency
3. REEEP is funded by the EU and 11 governments: Austria,
Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands,
Norway, Spain, US, and UK, the major donor of REEEP

3. REEEP Partners are businesses, the G7 countries,
NGOs, Brazil, SA, Mexico and developing countries
Currently more than 224 partners:
• 38 Governments
• International organizations,
NGOs and companies

4. REEEP is a Partnership for Delivery
1. REEEP acts as a facilitator and enabler and is profiled as a
change agent towards clean energy systems
2. REEEP aims to reduce market barriers for renewables and
energy efficiency systems in transition and developing
countries
3. REEEP believes in action on the ground via project activities
that are targeted on policy improvements and innovative
finance mechanisms
4. REEEP is recognized in the international political arena - G8,
UNFCC, APEC

8. A significant potential for improvements in energy
efficiency is in transition countries

9. As the Danish example shows, the most impact can be
achieved by combining RES and EE measures

12. REEEP quot;energy efficiency basketquot; contains a range of
activities carried out jointly with other players
40 Regional projects currently address energy efficiency
3 Workshops in EE in buildings
1 EE Investment forum
Global Review on Energy Efficiency in 2008
Host of the Energy Efficiency Coalition

13. Government actions are invaluable to overcome major
barriers to energy efficiency implementation
Improved institutional capacity and ownership
Proactive governmental leadership
Implementation of effective policies and regulations at all
levels
Availability of incentives (such as tax reductions, subsidies)
and access to finance
Introduction of simple and transparent administrative
procedures

14. Removal of Residential Energy Efficiency Barriers
Assessment of energy saving
potentials in residential areas (the
project saving over 1000 MWh/year)
7 cities in 5 countries (Armenia,
Bulgaria, Latvia, Poland, Ukraine)
Case studies on major barriers to
residential EE measures and
recommendations to key stakeholders
in municipalities
Can serve as a model for
municipalities in other transition
countries

15. Building Energy Efficiency Codes in Russia and
Kazakhstan
Increased energy efficiency in
new and renovated buildings
has reduced CO2 emissions by
9.5 million t to date
Development of improved
building codes and compliance
manuals
Training of leading building
officials on best practices in
code enforcement as well as
efficient building technologies

16. Compiling RES Legislation for Kazakhstan
Utilization of the large RES potential
especially wind, hydro and
geothermal energy
Development of a draft RES
legislation
Propose a schedule for
implementation of a national
programme for renewable energy
development
Draft legislation actively discussed
in the parliament and approval is
expected

17. Create a replicable financing model for the use of ESCOs
for energy efficiency solutions in Tamil Nadu
Increase significant water supply through
improvements in water infrastructure
Create a replicable ESCO model which will
facilitate investments and provide training to
the involved stakeholders in the state of
Tamil Nadu
Assistance in financing to implement energy
efficiency projects on the water supply
systems of 45 towns with possibility of
scaling up to 150
Case studies and tool kits to enable other
states to replicate the financing approach

18. Business Model Development for Biogas Electric power
generation In China
Facilitate capture and use of 20 million
tons of Methane CO2e produced annually
by China’s 7500 live-stock farms
Increase Investment in biogas by
introducing innovative technology, good
management practices and CDM regime
Develop a business model to accelerate
the construction and integration of large
scale biogas digester technology in China
Produce a comprehensive biogas to power

business plan and hand book for project
development

19. Efficiency Power Plant (EPP) Implementation in Jiangsu,
China
Achieve in Jiangsu energy savings

emission reduction of 2 m t per year
Develop a DSM manual, a
monitoring and verification protocol
and detailed EPP design and
implementation in two of Chinese
TOP 1000 enterprise energy
efficiency programme
Expected to contribute to China’s
national energy intensity target of
20% reduction by 2010

20. Energy Efficiency Coalition - aims to make energy
efficiency the mainstream
A REEEP initiative and driven by the industry - will comprise of
a wide group of relevant stakeholders in energy efficiency
Global approach with focus on OECD and Plus Five countries
sustainable platform which increases advocacy for EE and
helps to bridge the gap between quot;talkingquot; and implementation
