Project Description
The EBRD is considering setting up Poland-REFF to provide existing and new private participating financial institutions (PFIs) with credit resources in combination with comprehensive TC support packages. The Bank will extend loans to PFIs on terms reflecting their individual credit risk. In turn, PFIs will on-lend EBRD funds on market terms to private sector sub-borrowers to finance eligible energy and resource saving projects in residential buildings.
Project Objectives
The facility will contribute to the following objectives: (i) enhance the competitiveness of commercial financing for energy and resource saving investments in the residential sector; (ii) improve living standards of households; (iii) help avoiding carbon emissions; (iv) develop a market-based private sector financing instrument that targets the task outlined above; (v) demonstrate to the market that the above is technically feasible and economically viable.
Transition Impact
The facility will contribute to transition by: (i) demonstrating the financial viability of energy and resource efficiency projects in the residential sector in Poland, (ii) transferring skills to participating financial intermediaries and private sector sub-borrowers (households, housing associations, housing cooperatives and private sector service providers), which is expected to contribute to the growth of the market for sustainable energy and resource financing in Poland.
