Sub-projects signed under this framework
Translated version of this PSD: Polish
Project Description
A EUR 250 million facility to provide senior loans in EUR or PLN, to be allocated in the course of two years under the Polish Sustainable Energy Financing Facility for Leasing (Polseff Leasing), to participating financial institutions (PFIs) in Poland for the provision of financing to Polish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
At least 70% of the framework’s proceeds will be used for financing sustainable energy projects based on the pre-approved list of eligible materials and equipment, while up to 30% will be used for the acquisition of equipment, light commercial vehicles and trucks and trailers by SMEs (sub-projects).
Transition Impact
The transition impact is derived from:
- Demonstration of new products: The framework will help demonstrate the financial viability and attractiveness of unsubsidised sustainable energy financing through leasing companies. This will be the first intermediated sustainable energy financing framework on the Polish market without grants and based on commercial financing terms. Furthermore, the Framework will also continue to demonstrate the benefits of best available technologies across the Polish SME sub-sectors.
- Market expansion: By providing access to finance to SMEs for modern energy efficiency equipment, the framework will expand the market for the best available technologies, increasing penetration rates.
- Skills transfer: The Framework will increase the awareness of PFIs and their clients of the benefits of energy efficiency.
