Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'In East Asia, all middle-income countries have national targets for energy efficiency and renewable energy, and some even have targets for carbon reduction. However, a major hurdle to achieving a sustainable energy path is mobilizing the required financing. Although the lion's share of the investments are expected to come from the private sector, the challenge facing policy makers is how to unlock this commercial financing most cost effectively to scale up clean energy investments.Written for an audience of government decision makers in middle-income and high-income countries, international financing communities, and practitioners, this report draws lessons to date from recent experience in applying public financing instruments and attempts to address the following issues: when and under what circumstances to use public financing instruments; which instrument to select; and how to design and implement them most effectively. First and foremost, effective and conducive policies are essential to catalyzing commercial investment in clean energy.

Renewable energy policies that compensate investors for the cost gap between renewables and fossil fuels are a prerequisite to renewable energy financing. Once the right policy regime has been put in place, public financing mechanisms designed to mitigate risks and close financing gaps proved to play a major catalytic role in kick-starting substantial investments in clean energy. Public financing mechanisms for energy efficiency are particularly important to mitigating financiers' risk perceptions, to aggregating small deals, and to enhancing the interest and capacity of domestic banks. Public financing for renewable energy can provide long-term tenure to match the long pay-back period, mitigate technology risks, and increase access to financing for small and medium enterprises.The selection of public financing instruments should be tailored to the market barriers, the targeted market segments, the regulatory environment, and the maturity of the financial market. Engaging domestic banks through credit lines and guarantees has had the greatest impact in unlocking private financing. Dedicated funds and mezzanine and equity funds are effective at increasing access to financing for small and medium enterprises and clean energy start-ups. Finally, the impact of public financing instruments can be substantially increased if they are packaged with technical assistance. …
