Large investment potential in low carbon technologies at local and regional level
• From EU Commission, about 50bn EUR/year for RE and 85 bn EUR/year for EE
• A substantial part of the EE and small scale RE investment potential needs to be developed
• RE investments declining
• EE investments low today, but the new EE directive should boost them

Regional and local authorities can play a substantial role to promote EE and small RE
• Lowering the barriers to these investments, in particular providing information, TA or regulatory measures (split incentives, etc.)
• Contributing to developing local capacity to deliver these investments, particularly by SMEs
• Facilitate financing, including grants, when required
• Developing large investment programmes, mainly in the public sector

Developing large local/regional EE&RE investment programmes requires:
• Creation of a project implementation unit
• Improve project’s bankability:
– Reduce risks– Bundle small projects– Standardisation– Improve profitability: lower transaction costs and
use grants only when required
• Facilitate the financing of these schemes
