Financing Energy Efficiency: Lessons from Brazil, China, India, and Beyond

by Robert P. Taylor, Jeremy Levin, Anke S. Meyer, et al.

While energy efficiency projects could partly meet new energy demand more cheaply than new supplies, weak economic institutions in developing and transitional economies impede developing and financing energy efficiency retrofits. This book analyzes these difficulties, suggests a 3-part model for projectizing and financing energy efficiency retrofits, and presents thirteen case studies to illustrate the issues and principles involved.
