  1. ACP Secretariat - Open Day Brussels, 10th October 2011 ACP-EU Energy FacilityStatus of Implementation

  2. EU Energy Initiative for Poverty Eradication and Sustainable Development (EUEI) launched in 2002 in Johannesburg First ACP-EU Energy Facility (EF I, €220 million) launched in June 2006 Following successful implementation of the first EF, 10th EDF includes provision for a new EF (EF II) with a total budget of €200 million Overall objectives of EF II To contribute to the MDGs on poverty alleviation as well as WSSD objectives on energy To contribute to the fight against climate change (both for mitigation and adaptation) ACP-EU Energy Facility: BackgroundObjectives 2

  3. Expected results Improved access to affordable and sustainable energy services in rural and peri-urban areas Development of a sector enabling governance and regulatory framework and reinforced capacities of key stakeholders ACP-EU Energy Facility II: Expected Results andFocus Focus on • access to energy services in a pro-poor perspective • renewable energy and energy efficiency, use of local resources and decentralised solutions • productive use of energy beyond the basic service • coherence with partner countries' planning frameworks • promotion of sound energy policies and strategies • removal of obstacles to private sector's involvement 3

  4. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: BackgroundImplementing Modalities • 1. Calls for proposals for access and governance: €150 Million • Small scale infrastructure projects • Governance projects • 2. Pooling mechanism - blending with loans and private sector investments: € 40 Million • Mid and large scale infrastructure projects • 3. Specific governance support (outside the Call): € 3.5 Million • Small governance projects

  10. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: Implementation 1st Call for Proposals Distribution by type of energy (CN)

  11. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: ImplementationPooling mechanism • Funding priorities and scope of operations Investment projects + Studies and Capacity Building Activities • Medium-size (€10-50 million) investment projects for increased access to energy services • Geographical scope: ACP peri-urban, rural areas and growth centres • Priority to projects relying on renewable energy solutions and energy efficiency measures Grants for direct investment, Interest rate subsidies, Technical assistance

  12. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: ImplementationPooling mechanism • Status of implementation • Officially launched 19 October 2010 (letter to 27 Ministries in charge of development co-operation + EIB) • First project proposals presented and discussed during IAGE 24 November • Three IAGE meetings in total devoted to the Mechanism

  13. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: ImplementationPooling mechanism Status of implementation • Project concept notes presented at the IAGE • Solar-based energy services for all - Botswana (AfD – €5M grant - €39M total cost) • East Africa renewable energy facility (EIB - €5M grant- €46M total cost) • Loss reduction Electricidade de Moçambique (EIB - €5M grant – $139M total) • Fostering Access to Modern Energy Services in Rural Uganda (KfW - €3,5M grant - €41,1M total) • Tonga Solar Power Project (EIB – €1M grant - €6M total) • Banco Leon' Access to Energy Program Dominican Republic (Proparco – €1,6M grant) • Scaling up access to electricity in Kenya (AfD - €5M grant - €30M total) • Energy access and solar energy - Burkina Faso (AfD – €5M grant – €37,5M total)

  14. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: ImplementationPooling mechanism Status of implementation • Project concept notes presented to the Evaluation Committee • Fostering Access to Modern Energy Services in Rural Uganda (KfW - €3,5M grant - €41,1M total) • Energy access and solar energy - Burkina Faso (AfD – €5M grant – €37,5M total) • Scaling up access to electricity in Kenya (AfD - €5M grant - €30M total)

  15. Access to energy and climate change : What is at stake? • Energy = both a core sector in climate change and an important driver for development (without energy, no development) •  Access to energy has to be more taken into consideration in the climate change negotiations (as underlined by a recent declaration of the Conference of energy ministers in Africa) •  Access to energy must benefit from climate financing!

  16. An exceptional context • 2012 = UN Year for sustainable energy for all • UN HLG on energy (particip. Com. Piebalgs) • ... But there are emergencies! (ex: Senegal) •  Your help is needed! • Intra-ACP for the Energy Facility • Discussion with NAOs /NIPs • Discussion with climate negotiators / future climate finance

  18. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: BackgroundCalls for Proposals • Two Calls for Proposals (100 and €50M) • Amount 1st CfP set according to 1st EF results + front-loading effort (global crisis); extra contributions for 2nd CfP hoped for • “Two-steps” CfP (concept note + detailed proposal) • Allows better preparation of proposals, avoids unnecessary investment in project preparation

  19. ACP-EU Energy Facility II: Call for Proposals • Global overview • Call launched 30/11/09 • Deadline for submission of Concept Notes 05/02/10 • 667 Concept Notes received • 219 Proposals pre-selected 30/04 after concept note evaluation • 169 Detailed proposals received by deadline 09/07 • 65 proposals awarded + 15 on Reserve List (29/11)
