  1. How to make best use of European instruments: comments by EIBPresentation at BPIE European Roundtable on financing energy efficiency in European Buildings: how to boost large scale retrofit? Edward CalthropEconomist, IAD. November 16, 2010 European Investment Bank

  2. Overview 1.Scale of challenge 2. Two broad issues a. Programme design – ELENA b. Tailored use of EU funds: JESSICA, Green for Growth Fund 3. Conclusions Annex: additional information – not to be presented.

  3. 1. Scale of challenge • BAU not sufficient (9% EE by 2020 only) • Some key actors strained.. a. Fiscal crisis on public budgets b. Capital-constrained banks (Basel III) c. Home owners: delaying renovations? • ..but fundamentals still good (NPV>0) Need to achieve maximum value for money in publicly-supported programmes

  4. 2a. Municipal programme design Many technical studies, but (often): • Poor capacity in house to transform ideas into bankable programmes (notably for EPC – the silver bullet?); • Insufficient scale to attract private sector ELENA can help. e.g. Prov of Milan – schools across 30 municipalities delivered by EPC

  5. 2b. Tailored use of EU funds Use 4% ERDF! (political decision) Use intelligently….so which market failure is being addressed? • Poor home-owner information? (nominal vs. relative IRS) • Risk aversion? (Guarantees; ESCO finance?) Example 1: JESSICA Example 2: Green for Growth fund

  6. 3. Conclusions • Large challenge • Programme design key (use ELENA) • Tailored financing solutions (JESSICA, GGF) available • EIB willing partner in this process

  10. 1. EIB Energy lending • Four priority areas for EIB: • Renewable energy • Energy efficiency • Diversification and security of internal supply (including TEN-E) • External energy security and economic development • Individual loans of EUR 13.5bn in EU in 2009: • EUR 4.0bn for renewable energy projects (1) • EUR 2.0bn for TEN-E projects • Individual loans of EUR 34.2bn 2005-2009 in EU • EUR 8.3bn for renewable energy projects (1) • EUR 6.9bn for TEN-E projects (1)Includes renewable energy sources and manufacturing projects.

  11. 1: EIB Contribution to EU PolicyEnergy Lending EIB energy lending: • In 2009, €14.2bn (€13.3bn within EU-27), a 40% increase over 2008 • During the period 2005-2009 €37.4bn

  12. Energy efficiency is the most cost-effective way of reducing emissions and energy demand The EIB’s EE target areas include: Residential, commercial and public buildings Transport (rail, road, urban transport, ECTF) Electricity production & distribution (CHP, smartgrids) Industry EE considerations are mainstreamed into all EIB operations, working with promoters to extend the EE potential of projects 1. EIB: Energy Efficiency (EE)

  13. Annex Additional information on 1. EIB 2. ELENA 3. JESSICA 4. Green for Growth Fund

  14. ELENA - overview • ELENA • (Project Development Services) • Support to Final Beneficiaries with: • Refine Feasibility studies • Business Plans • Technical studies (energy audits) • Procurement/tendering/contracting • Additional technical staff • Financial structuring INVESTMENT PROGRAMME • EE and RES investments in public and private buildings, including social housing and street and traffic lighting • DH networks • Decentralised CHP • Urban transport to support increased energy efficiency and integration of renewable energy sources • Local energy infrastructure to support developments in previous sectors

  15. ELENA Eligible entities ELENA beneficiaries: local and regional authorities or other public entities, or groupings of such entities, including those subscribing to the Convenant of Mayors Eligible countries: EU, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Croatia All or part of the investment programme may be implemented by bodies other than the abovementioned entities, including private firms European Investment Bank / ELENA Facility 15

  16. European Investment BankSupporting cities to cut carbon EXAMPLE --- EE in Province of Milano In 2006, grant-funded programme of energy audits of public buildings in Province (180 municipalities). Problem Individual municipalities budget constrained; also lack of technical capacity at municipal level to develop a flow of projects. • Solution • adopt energy performance contracting • aggregate projects • coordinate at Province level; standardise contracts and energy cost baseline.

  17. EXAMPLE --- EE in Province of Milano Programme: Refurbishment of existing school buildings in some 30 to 40 municipalities: • Simple technologies: lighting (Compact Florescent Lamps; automation systems etc), heating (new condensing boilers; heating system pumps…) • Measures touching building envelope (roof insulation etc) may be included. Implementation by ESCOs. Pay investments costs; provide guarantee for energy savings (around 20%); serve debt through portion of energy savings. Finance provided by local Banks, supported by EIB loan, with interest rate subsidy provided by Province. Stimulate Italian ESCO market and local Financial Intermediaries.
