Policy Pathway publications provide details on how to implement specific recommendations drawn from the IEA 25 Energy Efficiency Policy Recommendations. Based on direct experience, published research, expert workshops and best-practice country case studies, the series aims to provide guidance to all countries on the essential steps and milestones in implementing specific energy efficiency policies.
This Policy Pathway presents the critical elements of joint public-private approaches to accelerating and scaling up private investment in energy efficiency. It focuses on the lessons learned from country experiences with three mechanisms – dedicated credit lines, risk guarantees, and energy performance service contracts.
