Introduction to the EBRD The EBRD is a triple-a rated* bank with a capital base of 30 billion. Operating in 35 countries from central Europe to central Asia, the EBRD: Promotes transition to market economies Mobilises foreign direct investment Improves people s lives through enhancing municipal services Encourages sustainable development The EBRD is owned by 65 countries and two inter-governmental institutions. 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 The EBRD s annual business volume 2000-2014 (cumulative, EUR in billion) 17 20 22 23 25 30 33 37 43 48 62 71 79 86 '00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 13 14 95 * From all three main rating agencies (S&P, Moody s and Fitch) Note: Unaudited as at 31 December 2014 10 June 2015 10
Where the EBRD invests 10 June 2015 11
The Sustainable Energy Initiative The EBRD has been engaged in sustainable energy finance since its establishment. In 2006, the EBRD launched the SEI to address the twin challenges of energy efficiency and climate change. The EBRD was the first MDB with a dedicated pool of technical experts in-house. In 2009, the EBRD became the first MDB to set itself a carbon emissions target. In mid-2014, the EBRD has already exceeded the three year (2012-14) target under the UN s Sustainable Energy for All initiative. The EBRD s engagement in the context of its countries of operations: high share of heavy industry ageing infrastructure high energy intensity a lack of market-based pricing for energy 16.4 billion invested since 2006 10 June, 2015 12
SEI finance since 2006 SEI investment since 2006 ( in billion) 16.4 billion invested in 926 SEI projects between 2006 and 2014. 69.6 m tonnes CO 2 /y of emissions reduced SEI Phase I SEI Phase II SEI Phase III SEI by business area ( in billion) Corporate energy efficiency 4.5 Cleaner energy production 4.2 Renewable energy Sustainable energy financing facilities Municipal infrastructure energy efficiency 2.9 2.8 2.0 Total 16.4 SEI by region ( in billion) Russia 3.2 South-Eastern Europe 3.1 Eastern Europe and the Caucasus 3.0 Central Europe and the Baltic 2.9 Turkey 2.1 Central Asia 1.0 South and Eastern Mediterranean (SEMED) 0.6 Regional 0.7 Total 16.4 13
The SEI business model Projects across SEI areas PROJECTS AND INVESTMENTS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE POLICY DIALOGUE Technical assistance to overcome barriers: market analysis, energy audits, training awareness raising, grant co-financing to provide appropriate incentives and address affordability constraints Working with governments to support development of a strong institutional and regulatory framework that incentivises sustainable energy 10 June, 2015 14

Renewable energy in Kazakhstan The 1 st EBRD wind power project in Kazakhstan CLIENT Wind Power Yereymentau LLP, a special purpose vehicle incorporated in Kazakhstan. PROJECT The EBRD will finance the construction, commissioning and launch of the first largescale wind farm in Kazakhstan. The 50 MW greenfield wind power plant is located in Yereymentau in Central Kazakhstan. The project will benefit from feed-in tariffs for renewables which were introduced in 2014. The introduction of these tariffs was the result of a successful cooperation between the government of Kazakhstan and the EBRD. FINANCIAL STRUCTURE EBRD loan EUR 59.2 million of which SEI EUR 59.2 million CTF concessional loan up to EUR 18 million Total project value EUR 96 million EXPECTED IMPACT Energy production: 131,400 MWh/year Emission reductions: 120,000 tco 2 /year E2C2 involvement Policy Dialogue. Project preparation support. Structuring of TI angle. CTF concessional loan. Sale of carbon credits (TBC). CAEPC 19
