JOINT LINDP / WORLD BANKENERGY SECTOR MANAGEMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME (ESMAP)

PURPOSE

The Joint UNDP/World Bank Energy Sector Management Assistance Programme(ESMAP) is a special global technical assistance program run as part of the World Bank'sEnergy, Mining and Telecommunications Department. ESMAP provides advice togovernments on sustainable energy development. Established with the support of UNDPand bilateral official donors in 1983, it focuses on the role of energy in the developmentprocess with the objective of contributing to poverty alleviation, improving living conditionsand preserving the environment in developing countries and transition economies.ESMAP centers its interventions on three priority areas: sector reform and restructuring;access to modern energy for the poorest; and promotion of sustainable energy practices.

GOVERNANCE AND OPERATIONS

ESMAP is governed by a Consultative Group (ESMAP CG) composed of representativesof the UNDP and World Bank, other donors, and development experts from regionsbenefiting from ESMAP's assistance. The ESMAP CG is chaired by a World Bank VicePresident, and advised by a Technical Advisory Group (TAG) of four independent energyexperts that reviews the Programme's strategic agenda, its work plan, and itsachievements. ESMAP relies on a cadre of engineers, energy planners, and economistsfrom the World Bank to conduct its activities under the guidance of the Manager ofESMAP, responsible for administering the Programme.

FUNDING

ESMAP is a cooperative effort supported over the years by the World Bank, the UNDPand other United Nations agencies, the European Union, the Organization of AmericanStates (OAS), the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE), and public and privatedonors from countries including Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Finland,France, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal,Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America.

Introduction

1.1 In recent years, energy sector reforms have begun to take hold in bothindustrial and developing countries. The focus of these reforms has been on improvingenergy efficiency-the policies and actions that make the production, distribution, anduses of energy more economical and environmentally sustainable-by fosteringcompetition and market-driven institutional arrangements. Responding to this climate ofchange, the Power Development, Efficiency and Household Fuels Division (IENPD) ofthe World Bank's Industry and Energy Department (now named Energy, Mining andTelecommunications) organized the second Roundtable on Energy Efficiency. Theroundtable was designed as a forum for the exchange of ideas and information on themost effective means of developing consumer oriented energy-efficient products andservices in energy sectors worldwide.

1.2 The second roundtable grew out of a similar gathering held in 1994. Thefirst joint UNDP/World Bank Energy Efficiency Roundtable provided a platform for thediscussion of workable energy sector development initiatives, especially the use ofdemand-side management (DSM) strategies.' The issues and findings that emerged fromthe first roundtable identified the need to find more effective means of promoting energyefficiency with new as well as traditional approaches. Sectorwide reform, economicallyefficient pricing, adherence to good economic and regulatory principles, and efficiencystandards were put forward as key elements of an efficient energy sector. Sustainabilitywould require increased private sector involvement, but investors would need to see thatthey could capture sufficient returns on their investments. All participants agreed that thelack of easy access to financing constituted the most significant impediment to focusedenergy-efficiency improvements in the developing world.

1.3 Three years later, the second roundtable offered participants theopportunity to discuss how far energy sectors had come in developing effective means of

2 Second Roundtable on Energy Efficiency: Institutional and Financial Delivery Mechanisms

delivering energy-efficient services and projects. It focused on best practices ininstitutional afid financial delivery mechanisms rather than on technological applications.Like the first roundtable, the second gathering was intended to bring togetherprofessionals and policymakers from diverse regions. The 22 speakers who gavepresentations represented energy consulting and service firms, nongovernmentalorganizations (NGOs), bilateral aid agencies, and multilateral development banks(MDBs, including the Asian Development Bank, Inter-American Development Bank,European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), and World Bank Group).In all, the event brought together some 200 people from industrial and developingcountries.

1.4 Given the variety of circumstances facing each country and region, it wasdecided early on that the roundtable would be designed to allow participants to sharespecific experiences with alternative delivery systems, both financial and institutional.This exchange of experiences was intended to facilitate the design and implementation ofenergy-efficiency policies and projects that can be adapted to a variety of country settings.

2Roundtable Structure

2.1 In keeping with the focus on delivery mechanisms, the four sessionshighlighted a spectrum of alternatives that ranged from utility-based to private energy-efficiency projects and solutions for different markets. The structure was intended toshowcase a variety of projects and to identify the factors essential to their success. Thefour sessions were:

• Utility- and Regulatory-based Efficiency Projects

* Project Design and Financing Instruments

* Partnerships for Building the Energy Service Industry

* The Emerging Energy Service Industry

The sessions opened with a keynote address and included presentations by expertpanelists and discussions with the audience.

2.2 The first day provided general background on types of projects and theincentives behind public-private sector partnerships, as well as on market opportunitiesand financing mechanisms. The second day had a dual focus. The first session dealt withlegal structures, primarily performance contracts, that can be used for energy-efficiencyprojects. The second session presented innovative approaches involving public-privatepartnerships that have been implemented primarily through industrial trade associations,ESCOs, and new financing mechanisms.

2.3 Richard Stern, director of the World Bank's Industry and EnergyDepartment, opened the Roundtable with a review of the ongoing transformation of theenergy sector business. The sector is currently shifting its attention from managing assetsto providing services. In this new, more competitive environment, the range of choicesavailable to consumers has increased. To make products more attractive, energy providersare promoting energy efficiency as a way to keep costs low while increasing quality.

3Key Messages from the Roundtable

3.1 Two major themes emerged from the conference. First, the transformationof the energy sector from asset manager to service provider, which is already well underway, is one of the key elements to the future upstream potential of energy-efficiencyprojects. And second, providers now have a variety of options to choose from indelivering energy-efficiency projects.

3.2 A point that recurred throughout the session was that energy efficiency hasemerged as a growing market with excellent opportunities for business. In countriesoutside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), thatmarket is believed to be worth US$10-20 billion. Energy efficiency has also emerged as awin-win option in the context of environmental concerns. This fact is particularly relevantto the need to encourage competition, as consumers are now concerned not only with thecost but with the environmental impact of providing and using services.

3.3 Key messages from the sessions included the following:

C Consumer-oriented energy-efficiency initiatives are being implemented using avariety of structures. Supply-oriented reforms in the energy sector are now fairlystandard, but energy-efficiency projects and services are not. The working parametersof these products are still being refined. For this reason, there are no perfect solutionsto the issues confronting the energy-efficiency business, only alternative approaches.But all the approaches converge in one respect: their focus on broadening the rangeand quality of options available to consumers. Energy efficiency is increasingly beingtreated as a sound business proposition in a deregulated energy market.

* In the current competitive environment, energy utilities are competing for customersusing market-driven tools, including distributed generation, energy servicesubsidiaries that offer value-added services, and pricing instruments. Competition ismost intense for large industrial and commercial customers, especially in countrieswhere energy sector reforms allow these customers to choose their energy suppliers.In markets that permit customers to choose among fuels (such as natural gas andelectricity) as well as suppliers, competition is even more pronounced.

5


* The lack of credible sponsors and project and investment expertise is a majorobstacle facing energy-efficiency initiatives. This issue has replaced inadequatefinancing as the major barrier to energy efficiency. The shortage of sponsors andknow-how makes it difficult to present investors with bankable projects. This area isone in which multilateral development and commercial banks can provide invaluableassistance by providing new instruments, credibly disseminating results, and tyingprograms into different projects.

* Multilateral agencies like the World Bank need to define more clearly their roles infostering energy-efficiency projects and services. Participants differed in theiropinions of what this role should be. Some saw it as confined to enabling a regulatoryframework that is conducive to energy efficiency. This enabling role would involveensuring the right prices, subsidizing project development financing, and sponsoringand replicating demonstration programs. Others questioned this view, demanding aradical change from what was called a "procurement and project developmentmindset" that focuses on building hardware rather than on developing energymanagement services and encouraging conservation.

4Key Points of the Sessions

Session 1: Utility- and Regulatory-Based Efficiency Projects

4.1 Participants in this session discussed approaches undertaken by publicauthorities to promote energy efficiency in different economic and cultural contexts. Theytouched frequently on the evolution of these approaches from DSM strategies to market-based schemes aimed at minimizing and leveraging the involvement of the public sector.

4.2 Panelists included Rick Sedano, commissioner of the Department ofPublic Services (DPS), Vermont, USA; Surya Sethi, International Finance Corporation(IFC); Suresh Shah, Asian Electronics, Ltd. (AEL, a publicly traded energy servicecompany based in India); the Honorable Arnaldo Baldonado, Philippines; and SittiphornRatanopas, assistant governor, Demand-Side Management Office, Electricity GeneratingAuthority of Thailand (EGAT). Charles Guinn, president of the consulting firm StrategicGuidance, moderated the panel.

4.3 Rick Sedano's presentation underscored the movement that is taking placein the energy sector toward market-based delivery systems. Vermont has begun to relyincreasingly on public awareness and market forces instead of the standards, taxes, andutility enrollments it previously used. The DPS has also begun to demonstrate newinstruments such as energy service companies (ESCOs). This policy has been wellreceived in the state, where consumers are sensitive to air quality and affordability.

4.4 Although opinion is still divided on how to balance market forces andgovernment involvement in regulation and subsidies, supporting ESCOs has become apopular proposition for utilities, governments, and MDBs. Performance contracts and off-balance-sheet financing are ESCOs' basic tools for promoting energy efficiency. ESCOsare able to accommodate the technology, financing, and management of multiple projectsand to mobilize private lenders. They also help overcome one of the primary barriers toimplementing energy-efficiency initiatives-investors' reluctance to lend-by providingtechnical guarantees that reduce perceived risk.

7


4.5 Opinion was also divided on how energy-efficient projects and services arebest developed. One difficulty is that the level of legal and financial infrastructure theyrequire is beyond the reach of many developing countries. Methods of encouragingenergy-efficient projects and services therefore vary widely with the economic climate.Suresh Shah and Surya Sethi pointed out that in India, where end-users have no pricingsignals to provide efficiency incentives and the state electricity boards (SEBs) havelimited access to financial markets, traditional supply-side approaches have enjoyed somesuccess. For example, since installed capacitors could not be used as collateral, thecommercial prospects for mobilizing long-term private capital were very poor. An IFCproject helped AEL place around US$80 million of power factor correction equipmentand other energy-efficiency tools. AEL became a hybrid ESCO-leasing company,providing the SEBs with ten-year leases and guarantees on capacitors. The contracts weresecured with the savings that the capacitors would provide.

4.6 The public sector often actively invites the involvement of the privatesector in energy-efficiency initiatives. Sittiphorn Ratanopas explained that in Thailand,EGAT has provided a bridge between publicly implemented energy-efficiency projectsand private participation through ESCOs and energy appliance and equipment suppliers(box 4.1). EGAT decided to support projects that were economically profitable bycreating private entities and financial instruments. This decision has led to the emergenceof a local ESCO industry that is able to demonstrate its viability to local banks, withEGAT providing soft financing until the ESCOs can recover their costs. In India, thebeneficiary finance company bought back AEL's ten-year lease to take advantage of the100 percent depreciation opportunity the Indian government grants to energy-efficiencyinvestments. And in the Philippines, the regulator has initiated a consultative process thatinvolves public and private partnerships.

4.7 Despite these successes, many barriers to developing energy-efficientprojects and services still exist. In developing countries, consumers frequently requiresubsidies. Utilities and manufacturers may need to be motivated, and some utilities maynot be creditworthy. Commercial lenders are often unwilling to accept the risk involvedin financing energy-efficiency initiatives. Some economies are unfamiliar and mistrustfulof ESCOs, and international ESCOs may not be able to find suitable local partners. Insome countries, the public may be unwilling to accept the costs of new initiatives. But thepublic-private partnerships that are being developed are providing creative ways toovercome these barriers.

Session II: Project Design and Financing Instruments

4.8 How to design bankable energy-efficient projects is one of the most

pressing issues facing the energy sector today. Panelists in this session discussed methods

currently in use in various regions and countries. The panelists included Tim Curtis of the

Energy Saving Trust (EST) in the United Kingdom; Peter Garforth, an independent

consultant; and Bernard Jamet, head of the Energy Efficiency Unit of the EBRD. Krishna

Challa, chief of the Private Sector Development division, Latin America and the

Caribbean Region, at the World Bank, moderated the discussion.

4.9 MDBs are already working to support energy efficiency in developing and

transition economies. Bernard Jamet used the example of the EBRD's involvement in

Eastern Europe to show that MDBs can have an effect in developing the energy service

industry. The EBRD has been providing financing for new ESCOs in the region, which

has few local resources or commercial banks able to work with small interventions and


public initiatives. The EBRD offers three options for creating bankable energy-efficiencyprojects (box 4.2): direct loans to large companies (such as district heating facilities),financing for ESCOs as intermediaries, and credit to commercial banks for on-lending.Peter Garforth underscored the importance of the work of MDBs, pointing out that theirsponsorship and expertise can help the private sector overcome barriers to energyefficiency.

4.10 This session also highlighted the importance of funding ESCOs and otherprivate financing arrangements rather than the projects themselves. ESCOs provide anumber of advantages: they can work with small private projects MDBs and the publicsector cannot accommodate; they can work directly with public sector institutions withoutthe guarantees MDBs require for direct funding; and they can work across differentsectors.

4.1l 1 In non-OECD countries, the energy-efficiency market is growing at about1 0 percent a year and is particularly attractive in the following areas:

* reduction of transmission and distribution losses;

* industrial/commercial efficiency, including cogeneration;

* reduction of operational costs in public and commercial buildings;


* municipal street lighting and heating services; and

* reduction of energy use in multifamily homes.

4.12 Even in a competitive environment, however, energy efficiency requirestime to take hold, as suppliers perceive it as adding an extra layer of risk. Tim Curtisnoted that in the United Kingdom, competition in the energy sector is already welldeveloped. Customers can save money simply by switching suppliers. But the marketcannot be expected to develop fully for some years, so the government has set up the ESTto design and oversee all energy conservation programs.

4.13 The presentations emphasized the importance of strong support fromgovernments and MDBs for the fledgling energy-efficiency market in developingcountries. As well as financing, energy efficiency requires a framework that fosterscompetition, rational pricing, and appropriate standards and provides a stable legalsystem, adequate procurement rules, and effective subsidies. MDBs can use theirinfluence to help establish this framework. Governments can work behind the scenes topromote energy efficiency through specialized programs. Subsidies for energy-efficiencyprojects and services are often legitimate in this context, as an initial ESCO project thatrequires specific legal, technical, financial, and commercial skills can be expensivebecause of the need to train staff or hire new workers. Customers and investors may alsorequire education in energy efficiency's best practices.

Session III: Performance Contracting and Partnerships

4.14 The panelists represented public utilities that either have made thetransition to ESCOs or are supporting the development of ESCOs in the energy-efficiencymarket: Jose Donoso of the Instituto para la Diversificaci6n y Ahorro de Energia (IDAE),Spain; Roland Hartung, CEO of Mannheimer Versorgungs und VerkehrsgesellschaftmbH (MVV), a German public utility; Leila Miragaya, director, and Lourival Monaco,president, Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (FINEP), Brazil; and Jose de Mascarenhas,president, Federacao das Industrias do Estado de Bahia (FIEB), Brazil. Shirley Hansen,executive vice president of Kiona International, an energy consulting firm, providedinformation on performance contracting. Connie Smyser of the InternationalDevelopment Bank (IDB) chaired the panel.

4.15 Roland Hartung discussed the customer-oriented approach his agency hasadopted in response to changes in the energy service environment. This traditionalGerman utility supplies electric power, natural gas, water, waste management services,and mass transportation to the Mannheim area. Because it has no competition, it has hadto develop in-house marketing skills in order to transform itself into an ESCO. Its newapproach is based on reinforcing ties with customers. Account management for large


customers and market management for residential customers are among the innovations ithas introduced to facilitate the transformation.

4.16 Jose Donoso's presentation emphasized the role the state can play ascatalyst in the emerging energy-efficiency market. The Spanish public energy-efficiencyagency IDAE became a full-fledged ESCO in the later 1980s in response to a lack ofinterest from industrial customers in financing energy-efficiency projects. The agencyrevamped its message to emphasize competition, modernization, and environmentalpriorities. Its focus is now on providing customers with the most reliable solutions,financing the transition, and monitoring and supervising the operation until theinvestment is recovered. Its primary tools are joint ventures with local banks andequipment suppliers. The results have been a thriving ESCO business in most of theSpanish industrial sectors and a reputation that allows the IDAE to support private ESCObusinesses and provide the market with new financial tools for small and medium-sizedenterprises.

4.17 Shirley Hansen discussed performance contracting, which she called "themost distinctive feature of ESCOs." Performance contracts guarantee that the customerwill see savings in volume or value. Not only must the contracts make this guarantee, butthey must also provide a method of monitoring the savings and stipulate the energy-efficiency measures that will be taken. Performance contracts have the advantage of beingflexible and in fact vary widely, depending on country conditions and the types ofservices being provided. While the contracts require audits of both provider andcustomer, the audits allow ESCOs to understand the risk involved in setting a guaranteelevel.

4.18 As a first step in developing performance contracts, the FIEB (whichrepresents the industrial association in Bahia, Brazil) and FINEP (a financialintermediary) have put in place a pilot program to demonstrate the applicability of energymanagement systems to the industrial sector. Monitoring and targeting systems will beimbedded in management systems, becoming part of the industries' basic operatingprocedures. The object is to avoid one-time energy audits or ESCO projects that mayfalter once the initial work has been done. The new systems will give plant managers abasis for entering into performance contracts. In this case, the delivery system has beenbuilt around the industrial trade associations.

Session IV: The Emerging Energy Service Industry

4.19 The emerging market for energy-efficient services is committed toproviding customers with fully integrated energy solutions and access to adequatefinancial instruments. The final session presented several approaches that are currently in


use in industrial and developing countries. Panelists included Marc Boudier of G6n6raledes Eaux, a French utility company; John Mahoney, president of Viron Energy Services(a U.S. ESCO); and Dana Younger of the IFC Technical and Environment Department.Russell Sturm, president of the International Institute for Energy Conservation, moderatedthe discussion.

4.20 Panelists emphasized the need for energy service providers to provide abroad range of options, not only to satisfy customers' needs but to take advantage ofalternative energy sources, renewable resources, and energy-efficient services already inuse. John Mahoney noted that the type of performance contracting Viron uses allowsbuilding owners to make capital improvements, finance all associated costs, and operatewith the assurance that the resulting energy and operational savings will cover both debtservicing and the initial investment. This approach, he maintained, is "classical ESCObusiness." Marc Boudier argued that limiting a project-to a specific power plant, forinstance-misses the chance to uncover more efficient means of generating large amountsof energy.

4.21 To facilitate the energy sector's ability to provide integrated energy-efficient solutions, the IFC is using direct investment and financial intermediaries tosupport the private energy-efficiency market. Three innovative financing schemes havebeen initiated:

* The Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Fund (REEF) for ESCOs, end-users,manufacturers, and specialized financial intermediaries in non-OECD countries;

* The Small and Medium-Scale Enterprise Program (SME), which lends to financialintermediaries supporting subprojects and covers incremental environmental costs;and

* Energy-efficiency guarantees and lines of credit that provide partial guarantees,technical assistance, and advisory services to financial intermediaries and localstakeholders (box 4.3).

4.22 The IFC has already been involved in energy-efficiency projects inArgentina, the Baltic states, Egypt, Hungary, India, Morocco, Poland, and Ukraine. InPoland, for instance, the Efficient Lighting Program has expanded the market for compactfluorescent lights (CFLs) by providing US$2.7 million in subsidies to threemanufacturers. The result has been price reductions of $7.5 million. These reductionshave significantly increased the number of CFLs in use and reduced emissionsaccordingly. And the Hungarian Energy Efficiency Credit Program (HEECP) is workingto overcome commercial banks' reluctance to lend money for energy-efficiency projectsby providing guarantees of up to 50 percent for multiproject lending, to a total of $4.5million.

4.23 Despite the reported success of the IFC's efforts in the energy-efficiencymarket, MDBs have been criticized for giving investment-intensive projects high priorityand for "clustering" projects in ways that create redundancies and fail to take advantageof integrated approaches. MDBs have also been faulted for allocating money to entitiesthat lack strong management incentives to be efficient.

5Follow-up Agenda

5.1 Concluding speaker Karl Jechoutek (chief, Efficiency and Household

Fuels Division, World Bank Industry and Energy Department) underscored the points that

emerged throughout the conference. He noted that the still-young energy-efficiency

business resembles other emerging markets in their early stages and faces the same

difficulties. The "pioneers" in the business are taking certain risks, but as their successes

become evident, the scope for experimentation in the energy sector will broaden. While

some failures are unavoidable, with time the market will thrive as buyers take the lead.

However, becoming a respectable market with ample financial resources will require the

right dose of sponsorship, a reduction in up-front costs, and alliances between the energy

and banking sectors.

5.2 The World Bank is taking steps to help fulfill those requirements. One of

the central objectives of the roundtable was to provide World Bank staff with the

opportunity to listen to outside practitioners in the field of energy efficiency. The

practitioners provided the latest information on successful experiences in delivering

energy-efficiency services and projects and discussed strategies that can be incorporated

into energy sector development initiatives.

5.3 The Bank is taking direct action on several fronts. First, it is preparing a

sector strategy paper, Fuel for Thought, that will provide operational guidelines for task

managers on energy-efficiency and environmental policies and projects. The Bank is also

developing external partnerships centered on energy and environmental issues.

Institutionally, the Bank has created the Environment and Energy Efficiency Thematic

Group, which brings together staff concerned with different regions and countries. In

addition, new lending instruments developed at the Bank during the last twelve months

are being adapted to the design of energy-efficiency projects, in particular, the Adaptable

Lending Program (APL).

5.4 The roundtable and other outreach events will open the way for a new

attitude toward integrated resource planning. Resource planning will no longer be a

matter of simply optimizing what already exists, but of creating a market framework for

innovative and profitable solutions.
