EuropeAid Casablanca, mai 2009Facilité Energie ACP - UE18 EF II : Technologies  Focus on renewable energy sources while remaining open to other technologies  Technologies best adapted evaluated against criteria like relevance and sustainability in the local context  Importance of energy efficiency and biomass energy for households

EuropeAid Casablanca, mai 2009Facilité Energie ACP - UE19 EF II: Priority eligible actions  EF particularly well suited for provision of decentralised services, with emphasis on productive use  Improvement of governance and capacity development  Technology transfer and the development/dissemination of appropriate energy technologies  Rural areas are the first priority but the EF should provide resources to new and more adapted organisational, economic and managerial schemes in peri-urban areas  Promotion of private sector investment in service provision

EuropeAid Casablanca, mai 2009Facilité Energie ACP - UE20 EF and rural electrification: What? How?  Principles: as grant is rare  use it when the project is not possible without  leverage very much requested (notably on private investment and loans)  Types of actions  Actions aiming at putting in place innovative financing/ organisational schemes  Only “local” projects vs. global/national projects?  Support to rural electrification agencies / funds: how?  On-grid / off-grid / mixed solutions?
