Project description and objectives:
|
The proposed project is to establish a new private sector energy service company (ESCO) in Ukraine, known as Energy Alliance. Energy alliance will be majority owned by the Western NIS Enterprise Fund, along with the Gostomel Glass group and Turbo-Spektr, a local engineering consultancy.
Energy Alliance will finance and develop co-generation projects for industrial clients in Ukraine. The Bank's loan will be used by Energy Alliance to finance the purchase of the co-generation equipment.
|
Transition impact:
|
Transition impact will derive from enabling private sector industrial companies to save energy on a sustainable basis using off-balance sheet financing and with state of the art technologies they do not themselves have the resources to implement. This will also have an important demonstration effect which should encourage other ESCOs to establish operations in Ukraine.
