Energocredit

If you wish to apply for a free energy audit to identify how you might improve your company’s energy efficiency, the procedure to follow is quite straightforward:
 
Step 1. Application forms are available from any branch of the Participating Banks. Complete the form and hand it in to the Bank.
 
Step 2. Providing that your company meets the eligibility criteria for a credit, the Bank will forward your form to GEEP for review.
 
Step 3. If your application is accepted (and we may have additional questions for you before deciding whether to go ahead), GEEP will contact you to agree the scope and timing for the audit, and will arrange for our engineers to visit your plant.
 
Step 4. Following the visit GEEP will prepare the energy audit report. This will identify potential energy savings for your company and the specific measures that will be needed to achieve them. It will include estimates of the cost of the investment and of the potential savings and indicate the payback period for the investments. It will clearly identify those investments that are eligible for the EBRD Credit Line and may also include other measures that can be taken to save energy that do not require significant capital investments. GEEP will send the report to you and provide a copy to your bank.
 
Step 5. If you wish to use the EBRD Credit Line to fund one or more of the investments identified in the energy audit report, GEEP will prepare a detailed Project Assessment Report (PAR) for the Bank. Further visits to your site may be necessary in order to complete the report. The PAR will provide all the information that the Bank needs to make a loan decision.
 
Step 6. Once it has reviewed the Project Assessment Report the Bank will contact you with its decision on the loan.
 
Remember, only a limited number of free audits are available and they will be allocated to eligible companies on a first come first served basis.
