About 3 Country EE |
|
The Project "Developing Financial Intermediation
Mechanisms for Energy Efficiency Projects in Brazil, China and India" (in
short "3 Country EE") aimed to substantially increase investments in energy
efficiency by the domestic financial sectors in Brazil, China and India. If present trends continue, the rapidly emerging economies of Brazil, China and India will more than double their use of energy and greenhouse gas emissions in the next 20 years. By pursuing cost effective investments in energy efficiency, these countries have a significant potential to reach similar development with substantially lower economic, social and environmental costs. The project helped to unlock this potential by developing business tools to package and market related investments, and improve implementation effectiveness through knowledge sharing among stakeholders in the three countries. The 3 Country EE was a partnership between the World Bank, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) through the UNEP Risoe Centre on Energy, Climate and Sustainable Development (URC), and institutions in Brazil, China and India. The project was financially supported by the United Nations Foundation and ESMAP, with complementary activities supported by ASTAE/UK DFID.
