A large variety of FEIs exists, ranging from loans to interest rate subsidies or rebates, and from equity or venture capital to guarantees.  <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In\ncomparison to \u2018traditional\u2019 grants, FEIs have several advantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sustainability<\/strong>, as they are repayable investments, they are revolving and impact positively the leverage of public money<\/li><li><strong>Improved quality of projects<\/strong>, as investments, must be repaid and therefore the pressure for success is bigger<\/li><li>Fostering co-operation between public and private sectors, as the repaying of investments offers a return and thus private sector involvement in (and funding for) public policy objectives. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For several years, Technopolis Group has been active in this field. For instance, ex-ante evaluation is a condition for the implementation of FEIs funded by EU programmes. Technopolis Group has supported several regions in defining FEIs on a range of topics, including economic and agricultural development, innovation, renewable energy development and energy-efficient housing refurbishment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FEIs are not\nused only in the implementation of European policies. Due to scarce public\nfunds, national and regional administrations also deploy FEIs. Recently,\nTechnopolis Group contributed to a feasibility study for a guarantee fund to\nsupport industrial waste heat recovery projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Waste is a hot topic<\/em><\/strong><strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat is a necessary by-product of processes using energy. Waste heat is released, for example, in the hot fumes of a combustion engine or in a factory chimney. Waste heat recovery, therefore, deals with energy efficiency and is an important concern for industrial stakeholders, as it contributes both to the mitigation of environmental impacts and improved competitiveness by cutting energy-related expenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the industrial Nord-Pas de Calais region, it is estimated that industrial waste heat, above 100\u00b0C<sup><a href=\"#2\">2<\/a><\/sup>, represents 7 TWh a year. In France, industrial waste heat above 100\u00b0C amounts to 51 TWh, equivalent to 16% of energy inputs<sup><a href=\"#3\">3<\/a><\/sup>. For comparison, the two nuclear reactors of the Fessemheim power plant produce about 10-13 TWh annually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the\npotential is significant, very few waste heat recovery projects are implemented\nin practice. Complexity, lack of end-users, technical constraints (e.g. set up\nduring downtime periods), extended payback periods, and lack of visibility of\nindustrial activities are some of the underlying reasons for the low take-up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cluster Energie 2020, ADEME Hauts de France and the Regional Council ordered a study on the feasibility of a guarantee fund to cover some of the risks associated with these projects. It comprised a technical and economic study, and risk analysis of different types of projects<sup>4<\/sup>, and an optional part on legal and financial engineering, and structuring of the fund. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Partnering\nwith an engineering company, a law firm and a financial consultancy,\nTechnopolis Group was responsible for the risk analysis of the projects and\ndefining the fund\u2019s response to cover these risks. The study selected industrial\nstakeholders in Nord-Pas de Calais with waste heat recovery projects either in\ndevelopment, already implemented or abandoned. With our technical partner, we\nconducted a market study to characterise the projects, understand the risks,\nand assess the potential impact of a guarantee fund and its ideal\ncharacteristics. Using regional analogies, this first analysis was then scaled\nup to the regional and national levels. During the second phase, we assisted\nthe legal and financial partners in defining the structure of the fund, notably\nby performing a benchmark study. Legal proposals and business plans were\ndiscussed with the project steering committee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, a fund covering only the residual risk left after all other solutions (insurance, commercial agreement, etc.) was deemed interesting and useful by most stakeholders, with a potential to boost the number of projects implemented. For instance, the fund could partially cover projects in which one of the stakeholders closed down, but not technical risks. Due to a significant level of risk, and in order to attract private investors, an extension to the national level is recommended. Discussions with national stakeholders, notably the Agency for Environment and Energy Management (ADEME), are currently underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><p id=\"1\">1 &#8211; During 2014-2020, the European Commission aimed at mobilising at least 10% of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) through financial engineering instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><p id=\"2\">2 &#8211; The lower the temperature, the lower the interest in recovery. 100\u00b0C is deemed a lower limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><p id=\"3\">3 &#8211;  ADEME 2015, La Chaleur Fatale Industrielle <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><p id=\"4\">4 &#8211; Types of projects studied included direct supply to an external industrial stakeholder, internal use or supply to a heat network<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Financial engineering instruments (FEIs) contribute increasingly to public policies in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,237],"tags":[],"solution":[],"sector":[180],"class_list":["post-19031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-okategoriserad","category-technopolitan-sv","sector-green-economy-sv"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
