Pre-feasibility study for municipal energy efficiency investment program

Summary Description

• The objective of the proposed GEF project to be developed using the PDF resources requested is to remove barriers to comprehensive energy efficiency improvements in district heating systems, there by achieving large-scale reductions in fossil fuel consumption and а corresponding reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
• The project will promote an integrated approach to district heating system upgrades that includes both supply-side and demand-side efficiency measures
• It will also reduce the overall cost of heat and hot water for the urban population
• The project will be developed and implemented in close coordination with related World Bank projects in Ukraine, building on experience and developing а strategy that will maximize environmental, economic and social benefits
• Heat supply and consumption systems of а pilot city, and the results will be disseminated and approaches replicated in other main cities of Ukraine

Strategic Objective

• Demonstrating the feasibility of an integrated approach to supply and demand side improvements in Ukrainian district heating systems
• Building public awareness and disseminating information on the benefits, technical options and potential financing arrangements for improving energy efficiency in heat and hot water supply
• Institutional capacity building / training to identify, evaluate and develop bankable project proposals (drawing upon in-country experience, such as World Bank loans in Kyiv and Sevastopol)
• Institutional capacity building / training to manage and implement the projects
• Development of incentives, new financing mechanisms, institutional arrangements and/or an administrative and regulatory framework to facilitate project implementation and cost recovery from investments

Results

• District Heating System in Rivne in General
• Proposal regarding the further work
