Background: Recent developments within the energy efficiency market offer new and innovative solutions to finance energy efficiency business models implemented by energy service companies (ESCOs), focused on the renovation of existing infrastructure to be repaid totally or partly through energy savings. These solutions support ESCOs in accessing finance, which is usually a major obstacle for small and medium-sized ESCOs with a limited balance sheet. Depending on project sizes and clients, different financing mechanisms and schemes can be used: working capital loans, leasing, sales of receivables, special-purpose vehicles or dedicated financial instruments.
This webinar will showcase the most relevant examples of ESCO project financing solutions being offered or developed by banks, funds or specialized investment structures on the energy efficiency market.
The webinar will be conducted in English.
