  2. Overview • Danish Development Cooperation • Activities in Danish Cooperation • Energy in bilateral Cooperation – some examples • Energy in multilateral Cooperation – some examples • Energy under MIFRESTA – some examples • Lessons Learned

  3. Danish Development Cooperation • Poverty reduction through sustainable development. • Provided as: • Bilateral cooperation • 15 programme partner countries (low income countries) • Private Sector Programme • Mixed Credit Facility • NGOs • Multilateral cooperation - UN organisations, the • Development banks and GEF for instance. • MIFRESTA - environment, natural disasters and peace. • Low and middle income + economies in transition. • UNEP/Risø activities

  6. Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples Burkina Faso On the 2nd 5-year programme (about USD 40M) • Institutional strengthening – frameworks • Traditional energy • RET and EE (industry + household/public sector + norms for buildings) • Rural electrification – demonstration projects

  7. Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples Niger and Ghana Traditional energy and RET • Preparation of energy sector programme in Ghana (about USD 30M) • Rural electrification • Traditional + RET Egypt • Programme on RET and EE on demand and supply side (USD 20M)

  8. Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples Mozambique Initiated in 2002 (about USD 60M). Sofola chosen. • End-users’ identified needs for energy services • Network-building. Public – private partnerships • Institutional strengthening at local level • Identified needs for CB of stakeholders involved

  9. Energy in bilateral cooperation – some examples • Earmarked funds for RET and EE development to WB and ADB • Affrei – demonstration programme - “next generation” of energy projects from government-led to private-led rural electrification/ transformation - cross-sectoral approach • UNEP/Risø and CTI • Promote sustainable energy solutions

  10. Energy under MIFRESTA – some examples • Projects on - RET (wind and solar) - EE (building sector in South Africa) - Institutional strengthening – planning, frameworks in a number of African and Asian Countries • Projects in economies in transition - Improved heating systems - District heating

  11. Lessons Learned • Organisational set-up is the single most important thing • Top down vs Buttom up. • Demonstration projects – scaling up to make a difference • Private sector involvement in all seizes
