7 LIMITATION FACTORS FACED IN IMPLEMENTATION OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROJECTS Drawbacks that may turn into opportunities Unawareness of available technologies and benefits of application and also of the real economics of properly designed projects.

11 ACTIVE SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FINANCE PROGRAMS IN ECA IFC EE ECA PROGRAMS ECA SEF PROGRAM > Residential and Industrial energy efficiency / RE > Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Kosovo, Serbia, RUSSIA REE PROGRAM > Residential energy efficiency MFBs /HOAs > Russia UKRAINE REE PROGRAM > Residential energy efficiency MFBs /HOAs > Ukraine ALBANIA REE PROGRAM > Residential energy efficiency single home owners > Albania Armenia SEF PROGRAM > Residential Energy efficiency single home owners and Industrial RE > Armenia 10

12 ALBANIA RESIDENTIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAM REE Loans disbursed 12,000 10,000 8,000 6,000 Number of loans disbursed (cumulative) 3,000 4,000 2,000 Value of loans disbursed (million US$) (cumulative) 12,000 - Dec-10 Dec-11 Dec12 Dec-13 1 st and 2 nd FI started in July rd FI started in January th FI started in June th FI joined in FY 14 11

13 CHALLENGES The macroeconomic environment continues to present significant risks to Energy Efficiency lending, as the financial slowdown has had a high impact on the overall economy, thus limiting the interest of industries to expand through borrowing. In Albania and Armenia the country specific IFC Programs running challenges of economical slowdown, low energy price, no incentive for financing Energy Efficiency and economic conditions of the population. In Balkans, the ECA SEF Program set its activities with a view that the EBRD is running a large program, funds being provided by the European Commission. In Russia, ECA SEF program may have a challenges in view of economical downturn and sanctions. In Ukraine, already stopped or undermined activities of many large enterprises and SMEs in conflict industrial regions and practically left no possibility to work in Crimea. Expansion to other ECA countries: Turkey, Belarus, Tajikistan. Activities are planned as jointly interventions of advisory and investment team. 12
