The Energy Community Secretariat and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) have teamed up to issue a set of Policy Guidelines for Centralised Energy Efficiency Financing Mechanisms authored by Economic Consulting Associates (ECA) with the support of the Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP).

The Guidelines seek to advise Contracting Parties of best practice on the scoping, design and implementation of financial support mechanisms for accelerating energy efficiency measures and contributing towards the achievement of their national targets set through transposition of the Energy Efficiency Directive.
