  3. UNEP’s Approach In the energy sector huge capital investments will be required in the coming decades to offer even modest modern energy services to the worlds’ poor. • UNEP’s energy sector response... places new emphasis on the finance sector, helping it respond to opportunities for financing a cleaner energy future.

  4. UNEP Finance Initiatives UNEP targets financial decision makers to help them become more aware of investment opportunities in the sustainable energy sector. • Statement by Banks and Insurers on the Environment and Sustainable Development • ‘Code of conduct’ promoting the integration of environmental considerations into all aspects of operations and services. • UNEP Financial Institutions Initiative • 170 banks • UNEP Insurance Industry Initiative • 85 insurers

  5. Barriers to RE finance • higher real and/or perceived risk • absence of sound operational data • limited access to reliable technical information • lack of in-house skills to evaluate/negotiate projects • RE operating modalities may require new financing norms • increased transaction costs with initial investments

  6. Example Services Eligible for Support • independent valuations • environmental risk analysis • market sizing for a manufacturing operation • legal reviews • financial risk analysis UNEP RET/EE Investment Advisory Facility (IAF) provides support to financial institutions evaluating investments in specific Renewable Energy Technology /Energy Efficiency projects A Global Environment Facility supported initiative

  10. Latin American energy services fund • FondElect with the Multilateral Investment Fund of the Interamerican Development Bank is exploring the feasibility of establishing a fund for RE, micro-generation and EE principally in Mexico and Brazil. • The fund offers investors a vehicle to participate in the RE sector. • The investment focuses on small and medium sized undercapitalized energy service companies.

  12. IAF Projects, Jamaican Windfarm Client: project investors (wind energy financier RES Ltd. and Jamaican Petroleum Corp.) Project: evaluated whether emission reduction credits could make an otherwise stalled 20 MW wind project viable Support: • evaluation of the policy context and quantification of emission reductions • securing and transacting emission reduction credits through ‘early actions’ Output: • negotiated $3.4mn carbon sale with WB Prototype Carbon Fund

  13. engages the private sector to provide distributed energy services based on clean and renewable energy technologies • uses an approach that couples enterprise development ‘hand-holding’ with modest amounts of start-up financing Brazil Rural Energy Enterprise Development Initiative(BREED) ‘fostering renewable energy companies that meet the needs of the rural poor’ A UN Foundation supported initiative

  14. Brazil Rural Energy Enterprise Development Initiative assisting local entrepreneurs to create sustainable energy service companies A practical approach to promoting energy for sustainable development • improve the provision of clean energy services • while building capacity of the private sector • to develop sustainable projects • which are ready for investment.
