| Summary: | Since its launch in 2009, the
Sustainable Energy Finance (SEF) Program in the Philippines
has worked with four partner banks Bank of the Philippine
Islands (BPI), BDO Unibank, Inc. (BDO), China Banking Corp.
(Chinabank), and BPI Globe BanKO (BanKO) to help them
identify and develop nearly 300 energy efficiency/renewable
energy (EE/RE) projects. These banks have directly loaned
$439 million to finance 118 of these projects, resulting in
an annual savings of nearly 115,000 megawatt hours of
electricity and annual generation of 951,613 megawatt hours
of clean energy. The annual reduction of greenhouse gas
emissions reached about 1 million metric tons a year as of
December 2013. The project received an award under the
financing for climate-friendly investments pillar by the
Momentum for Change 2013 Lighthouse Activities, an
initiative of the United Nations Framework Convention on
Climate Change in partnership with the World Economic Forum.
Underlying these achievements is SEF s devotion to helping
bank staff und rstand energy efficiency and renewable
energy, and how financing these projects benefit both the
banks and their clients. Over the years, we ve learned a lot
ourselves about creating learning events for bank staff and
how to make these training events more appealing, more
enjoyable, and ultimately more effective. |
