The LEDS Global Partnership and Energy Working Group
Alexander Ochs, Co-Chair, LEDS GP Energy Working Group
LEDS Global PartnershipAn international initiative aiming to harness the collective knowledge and resources of governments, donors, international organizations, and practitioners in scaling up and strengthening implementation of climate-resilient low emission development around the world.
Catalyzes action and collaboration across more than 160 countries, plus international donor and technical organizations.
Operates through “regional platforms” (delivery) and “technical working groups” (expertise).
Energy Working Group (EWG)Founded in 2011, now over 500 members
The LEDS EWG promotes low emission and climate resilient development in the energy sector through:• Learning, information exchange, communication
of best practices• Advisory services & technical assistance• Enhanced opportunities for coordination and
collaboration
EWG 2017 Knowledge Products Preview:Communities of Practice:• Continuation of LEDS LAC Bioelectricity Community of
Practice• Energy LEDS Communities of Practice established in Africa
and Asia
Energy training:• Asia LEDS Partnership regional workshop• Africa LEDS Partnership regional workshop• LEDS LAC regional workshop

Francisco Flores-Espino, Energy Analyst, National Renewable Energy Laboratory
Francisco works as an Energy Analyst at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Francisco has over three years of experience employing and developing the Jobs and Economic Development Impact (JEDI) tool. Francisco has a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering and a M.S. degree in Energy Management
I-JEDI | International Jobs and Economic Development Impact Models

NREL I-JEDI• Jobs and Economic
Development Impact tool, international version (I-JEDI)
• Economy-wide impacts from power plants
• 15 models Excel-based for the U.S., one online version
• International version• PV, biomass, wind, geothermal• Colombia, Mexico, South Africa,
Philippines, Zambia• Adapt to other regions
NREL I-JEDI, Inputs and Outputs
Inputs: Nominal capacity, installation costs, local content share, and region
Direct (on site) Impacts: labor, materials, professional services, etc.
Jobs and economic development impacts to the economy as a whole
Economy-wide impacts: number of jobs, earnings, contribution to GDP and economic output
NREL I-JEDI, Users• ~3,000 downloads per year• Government agencies, universities, consulting
firms, project developers, nonpartisan research organizations• National, state and county level analyses• U.S. Government Accountability Office• GE Energy Financial Services • Iowa Policy Project, Land Policy Institute (Michigan)• Several universities
• ~70 articles between 2004-2014
NREL I-JEDI, Results• GAO’s: Wind Power’s Contribution to Electric
Power Generation and Impact on Farms and Rural Communities • “[E]mployment and income impacts tend to be greater for
counties that are more highly populated and have a larger economic base, and are considerably greater for projects that are locally owned than for projects that are owned by out-of-area firms.”
• GE Energy: Impact of 2007 Wind Farms on US Treasury • The total NPV to the US Treasury was an estimated $2.75
billion, greater than the $2.5 billion total cost of the PTCs –resulting in a net inflow to the Treasury of $250 million.
• Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE)• Contribution to municipal economy as a percentage of
annual GDP
