Challenges in EE Financing Challenges in EE Financing Capital Intensity: Significant upfront capital investments due to the scale and complexity of operations. Lack of Internal Capacity: Lack of internal expertise and capacity to identify, develop, and implement energy efficiency projects effectively. Limited Access to Structured Financing: Non-availability of tailor made financial products to support plant operations pre and post implementation of EE technology. Risk Perception: Effectiveness of technology and complexity associated with implementation Inadequate Security: Non cooperation by existing lenders to share charge on assets/existing TRA Lack of Standard project documents: Lack of standard project agreements like ESPC contract stipulating PSM, termination payment etc. Incentives: No specific policy to incentivize EE projects.

Strategy for Effective EE Financing Strategy for Effective EE Financing Adequate Security: Credit Guarantee (like PRSF) Adequate Risk Mitigation: Standard ESPC agreements stipulating PSM, termination payment etc. Tailor made Financial Products: Project specific products to meet their specific requirements during and after implementation of EE project Low Cost Funds for Onward Lending: Multilateral tie-up for attractive on lending On boarding Champions: Institutions/subject experts may be on boarded by FIs for third party vetting of projects to gain additional comfort Build Technical and Financial Capacity: Training programs/workshops to enhance appraisal capabilities for risk mitigated financing Create Awareness: Campaigning/showcasing successful EE project - funding to educate other members of lending fraternity about the benefits of energy efficiency financing Strengthen Policy and Regulatory Support: Implement supportive policies and regulations F u n d i n g F u n d i n g f o r f o r b r i g h t e r b r i g h t e r t o m o r r o t o m o r r o w w 9
