ASSOCIATION OF MUNICIPALITIES POLISH NETWORK
„ENERGIE CITÉS” …
it is a Polish non-governmental organisation operating since 1994 and supporting
sustainable energy planning and implementation on the local level;
its activities include:
• promotion of energy efficiency and use of renewable energy sources;
• implementation of projects supporting sustainable energy development of Polish municipalities;
• organization of conferences, seminars, workshops, study tours etc. devoted to energy-related
issues;
• supporting exchange of experience and ideas between its members;
• helping in identifying and obtaining funds for energy-related projects.
its members are local and regional authorities from all over Poland
since April 2009 the organisation is an official Covenant Supporter and as
such supports Polish CoM signatories in the development and implementation
of SEAPs.

FIRST STEPS
Prioritization of actions (financial perspective):
• financial aspects considered: implementation cost, payback period, IRR/ERR (factors measuring
profitabilty of investments), NPV
• selection criteria: relatively low cost of investment, availability of financing sources, interest of
potential investors, economic benefits
Project profitability assessment based on simple payback – initial investment divided by cummulative
costs savings over project life-time:
• 3-5 years – very good profitability
• 6-10 years – average profitability
• over 11 years – low profitability (hard to find external financing)
Actions with large investment costs may be challenging for small and medium municipalities (harder to
secure commercial funding; bigger guarantees reqquired) – possible solutions:
• risk sharing between different financing sources
• bundling similar projects implemented by several neighbouring municipalities

EXAMPLE OF NIEPOŁOMICE – JOINT RES PROJECT
4 neighbouring municipalities join forces, prepare a common
RES project and obtain co-financing form the Polish – Swiss
Cooperation Fund:
• municipality of Niepołomice – lead partner
• municipality of Wieliczka
• municipality of Skawina
• municipality of Miechów
RES systems are installed in 3841 households and 32 public buildings
In case of private buildings, owners cover 30% of the costs
RES systems include solar thermal panels, PV modules and heat pumps

provides urban areas throughout Europe with resources to test new and
unproven solutions to solve their urban challenges (impact on innovation,
not results)
Only cities can be lead partners!

ALTERNATIVE FUNDING SOURCES – ESCO SCHEME
Within the ESCO scheme investment projects are implemented together by the
municipality and private investor (Enegy Services Company). The investor usually
finances the project without any up-front investment costs for the municiplity and the
costs are recovered and the profit is made from the energy savings achieved during the
contract period.
The contract guarantees certain amount of savings for the municipality at the same time
helping them to avoid large investment costs.
The key benefit for the municipality is removal of project non-perfrmance risk, while
keeping the operating costs at relatively low level.
Financing is arranged so that the energy savings cover both the costs of investments
and of contractors services.
Accurate and relibale monitoring and verification of energy savins is crucial – easier
with EnMS in place!

ALTERNATIVE FUNDING SOURCES – REVOLVING FUNDS
Financial scheme aimed at establishing sustainable set of finacning for a set of investment
projects. It may include loans or grants and aims at becoming self-sustainable after its first
capitalisation.
The objective is to invest in profitable projects, with short payback time, be repaid and use the
same funds to finance new projects.
The owners / managers of the fund can be public or private companies, organisations,
institutions or public authorities.
„Mini-revolving funds” created within
EURONET 50/50 MAX project
EURONET 50/50 MAX was an IEE-funded project aiming at mobilizing energy savings in public buildings
through the implementation of the 50/50 methodology, which actively involves building users in energy
management. Achieved financial savings are shared equally between the school and the local authority which
covers the energy bills.
Participating municipalities/schools were encouraged to use their 50% of the savings to invest in
further energy efficiency measures in the building.

ALTERNATIVE FUNDING SOURCES – OTHER
PICO Scheme – works similarily as the ESCO model but here it is one of the LAs’ departments that acts
as an ESCO unit for another department(s). The ESCO department organises, finances and
implements energy-efficiency improvements mostly through a fund made up of municipal money,
and using existing know-how.
On-bill financing - Energy suppliers give a loan for EE investments and collect the repayment through
energy bills. It leverages the relationship existing between a utility and its customer; this model is
developed mostly in UK.
Green bonds - LAs can issue green bonds to fund their sustainable energy projects. A green bond can
operate as a normal bond, which is a debt that will be paid back, depending on the characteristics of
the bond, with interest.
Community energy projects - pooling resources from different local actors and sharing benefits
between them (e.g. energy cooperatives)
„Our energy” cooperative near Zamość (PL)
The cooperative is composed of 4 municipalities and 2 private companies. Invitation to join was also issued to the
citizens and local stakeholders. The cooperative is planning to build a complex of biogas-fueled power plants
connected with autonomic network (it will supply with energy public buildings, public lighting and households).

SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT – BEST SOURCE OF MONEY ARE SAVINGS!
Adopt Energy Manager, who will be responsible for:
monitoring and managing energy consumption in public buildings and facilities
cooperation with energy utilities and reviewing contracts with them (to better adapt them to actual
demand)
develop , implement and monitor local energy strategies and action plans
develop and implement sustainable energy projects
educate citizens in the field of energy and help them in launching their own initiatives
Implement energy management system that will help you to:
optimize energy consumption within the municipality and this reduce energy costs
get better control over implemented energy saving measures
give good example to citizens and local stakeholders
The costs and efforts invested pay off quickly!!
