  7. What kind of risks and barriers has the financing of EE in the industrial sector? • The limited experience of financial institutions in energy efficiency projects. • The lack of financial mechanisms that reduce the risk of energy efficiency projects in the industrial sector. • Investments in energy efficiency projects are not a priority of the industries. • The prices of efficient equipment are higher than the prices of conventional inefficient equipment.

  8. What kind of public finance mechanisms are needed to support EE in the industrial sector? • Promote tax incentives for importation of efficient equipment. • Establishment of investment funds with non-reimbursable contributions. • Establishment of guarantee schemes to reduce the risks in energy efficiency investments. • Promotion and development of mechanisms intended to simplify the procedures related to importation of efficient equipment.

  9. What are the main challenges to implement an Energy Performance Contract (EPC) and position ESCOs to provide EE services to the industry sector? • Improve the reliability on ESCOs to provide energy efficiency services/projects. • The financing structuring of investments to include industries and ESCOs. • Establish financial products for ESCOs that reduce the risk of their energy efficiency projects.
