REFINE Project
REFINE is an EU-funded H2020 project that aims to contribute to the supply of sufficient and attractive financing sources for energy efficiency investments by enhancing the refinanceability of EES projects and amplifying the use of refinancing schemes in EES business practice. In order for the European Union to achieve its energy and climate goals by 2030, significant investment is required to make energy efficiency projects more attractive for potential investors and financial institutions. In that context, the EU-funded REFINE project has identified the lack of attractive financing options for EES projects as a major barrier to the development of a functioning, robust EES market in Europe.
REFINE has developed its solutions in collaboration with key stakeholders including financial institutions, EES providers, market facilitators and guarantee funds. Using their expertise, the REFINE solution aims to identify and alleviate the risks associated with refinancing for EES projects and enable EES providers to clean up their balance sheet, thus allowing for future investment in new projects.
FinEERGO-Dom Project
FinEERGo-Dom is an ambitious 4-year project that refines and implements guaranteed financing schemes for energy efficiency and renewable energy in deep renovations of buildings in Poland, Austria, Slovakia, Romania, and Bulgaria. The project builds on the experience of the Latvian Building Energy Efficiency Facility (LABEEF), the original Building Energy Efficiency (BEEF) Facility deployed successfully in Latvia. LABEEF is based on an existing example providing 20 year Guaranteed Performance contracts to owners through an On-Bill payment scheme.
