Policies For A Mature, Flourishing, Equitable EV Charging Ecosystem by Chris ...Forth
Chris Rimmer, Infrastructure Strategy lead at CENEX gave this presentation at the Forth The Charging Infrastructure Ecosystem webinar on October 12, 2021.
This document discusses findings from a study on the consumer experience with residential rooftop solar PV installations in five Indian cities. The key issues identified include: 1) A need for better alignment between various government agencies involved in solar installations. 2) Limited capacity and knowledge of implementing entities. 3) An absence of customized financial offerings. 4) A lack of clear, credible, and easily accessible sources of information for consumers. The document provides recommendations to address these issues such as standardizing costs, improving online processes, enhancing capacity building, and improving awareness campaigns.
The document discusses key barriers to electric vehicle deployment in India and programs that Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) is undertaking to address these barriers. The major barriers include high upfront costs of electric vehicles compared to diesel, pricing risks due to evolving battery technologies, lack of long term financing for batteries, lack of credit for smaller electric vehicles, need for charging infrastructure development, and lack of institutional capacity. CPI's programs seek to address these through initiatives like battery service agreements, long term debt facilities for batteries, financing for auto rickshaws, pay-as-you-save models, and project preparation facilities to connect cities and investors.
Driving Transportation Electrification Forward - The TEINA Study byMary BrazellForth
The document summarizes a study on transportation electrification in Oregon. It found that most public electric vehicle charging stations are currently located in urban areas along major corridors and the coast. There is a need to focus on establishing charging infrastructure in both rural "charging deserts" and in urban, low-income, and communities of color to promote equitable access. The study recommends that Oregon prioritize developing a statewide electric vehicle charging strategy and updating policies to support further infrastructure buildout over the next 5 years. The goals are to rapidly deploy more charging stations, make infrastructure accessible to all, and create a convenient charging experience similar to gas stations.
This document discusses potential policies and measures to increase adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Ireland based on behavioral economics principles. Transport currently accounts for 42% of Ireland's energy consumption and 41% of energy-related emissions. While EV grants and tax incentives already exist, adoption rates need to increase significantly to meet climate targets of 1 million EVs by 2030. The document identifies several behavioral barriers like status quo bias and outlines evidence-based policies like congestion charging, total cost of ownership labeling, dealership training, and workplace charging incentives that could help boost EV purchases in Ireland. It concludes by noting some initial implementation steps for 2021.

Private and Public Partnerships Move MainstreamKerry Carey
All across the country, infrastructure projects are in need of repair, and creative organizational solutions are in-demand. Public-Private Partnerships are long-term contracts between a private party and a government entity allowing for an alternative approach to federal, state and municipal construction projects. The private party bears a large share of risk and management responsibility, and remuneration is linked directly to performance. This webinar discusses the nature of this collaboration across sectors.

PPP is a contractual arrangement between a government and private sector company to deliver infrastructure services. There are different stages in a PPP project's lifecycle including project preparation, construction, operations and maintenance, and handover. Key stakeholders are the public entity, private partner, concessionaire, transaction advisors, and lenders. PPPs can provide benefits like higher efficiency, access to private finance, and increased transparency, but also have limitations such as high transaction costs and challenges with enforcement and monitoring. Common PPP models include management contracts, lease contracts, build-operate-transfer, and variants like design-build-finance-operate-transfer.

On-Bill Repayment is a platform that allows third party private capital to finance qualifying energy efficiency and renewable energy projects for businesses. Repayment of the financing is done through utility bills, reducing credit risk for lenders. It works by having the repayment obligation tied to the meter and property, remaining in place even if ownership changes. States like Hawaii and Connecticut have begun implementing On-Bill Repayment platforms that are expected to launch in early-mid 2014. The platform is meant to increase access to capital for clean energy projects and accelerate their adoption through better financing options.
This document summarizes a case study of a public-private partnership (PPP) model for an underground sewerage scheme in Alandur municipality, India. Key points:
1. The PPP involved a BOT operator investing Rs. 7 Cr to build and operate a sewage treatment plant for 14 years, with the municipality paying per MLD of sewage treated.
2. Unique aspects included public contribution of Rs. 5000 per household to fund the project, addressing public demand.
3. This was India's first sewerage scheme and STP project using the PPP and BOT models, demonstrating good governance through alternative financing.
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) involve collaboration between government agencies and private sector companies to finance, build, and operate public projects. PPPs have existed for centuries but became more popular in the 1980s as governments sought private sector benefits without full privatization. The UK was the first to develop PPP concepts for public services. PPPs allocate risks between partners and remunerate private partners based on performance. Common PPP models include build-operate-transfer, build-own-operate, and design-build-finance-operate. While PPPs provide public services more efficiently, they also carry construction, availability, demand, and partnership risks that must be negotiated.
The document discusses public-private partnerships (PPPs). It defines PPPs as agreements between governments and private companies where the private sector finances, builds, and operates infrastructure projects like roads, dams, and utilities. The document outlines several PPP models and notes that PPPs allow risk and costs to be shared while leveraging private sector expertise and innovation.
Project financing and public-private partnerships (PPPs) allow major infrastructure projects to be funded off the government's balance sheet using a mix of public and private funding. PPPs follow several key stages including project identification, feasibility studies, equity and debt arrangement, negotiation, construction, operation, and repayment. They allocate risks to the public or private sector best able to manage each risk. Pakistan has successfully completed several PPP projects and has many more currently underway or in the pipeline managed through provincial PPP units.
Project financing and public private partnership (ppp)M. Asim U Khan
This document provides an overview of project financing and public-private partnerships (PPPs). It begins with definitions of project financing and PPPs. It then outlines the typical stages in a project financing process, including identification, feasibility studies, equity and debt arrangements, negotiation, monitoring, repayment, and disbursement. Key aspects of project financing structures are highlighted such as high debt levels and concentrated ownership. PPP models like BOT, BOOT, and ROT are described. Critical success factors for PPPs include appropriate risk allocation, value for money, and performance management. The document concludes with details on Pakistan's PPP Unit and examples of executed, current and planned PPP projects.
