CEADIR delivered trainings to banks, identified pipelines of potential transactions, and provided transactional support. Ghana CEADIR facilitated financial closure and disbursement for a third transaction with Ecobank Ghana for a total loan value of $2,033,599. The loan was for LEDing Ghana and consisted of two facilities: a loan of $1,311,950 for facility 1, and a loan of GHS 3,500,000 ($721,649) for facility 2. CEADIR delivered a two-day training on structured finance for RE for Ecobank Ghana. Topics included an introduction to energy and the off-grid RE sector in Ghana, an introduction to off-grid RE business models, an introduction to structured finance, and risk and credit assessment of off-grid RE companies.

USAID CEADIR Activity: Fiscal Year 2019 Performance Report 9

CEADIR followed with a one-day group training delivery on a condensed version of the same content, delivered to representatives from Fidelity Bank, CalBank, Stanbic, UBA, and Republic Bank. Departments represented included credit, commercial and SME banking, consumer and retail, risk, and project finance. Uganda CEADIR assisted six banks on CE lending: Opportunity Bank, Centenary Bank, Finance Trust, DFCU, Ugafode and Pride. CEADIR prepared three rapid assessments: 1) An assessment of the off-grid RE policy and regulatory framework in Uganda and availability of bank loans and the lending terms and conditions; 2) An assessment of the off-grid RE lending progress, process, and terms for each Ugandan FI and their specific challenges and opportunities, and recommended strategies for USAID to implement to address these challenges and opportunities; and 3) An assessment summarizing the risks and mitigants that FIs in Uganda face to lending to the off- grid RE sector. Following these assessments, CEADIR delivered training sessions to four client banks -- Opportunity Bank, Pride Microfinance Bank, Centenary Bank, and Finance Trust Bank. The training topics covered 1) mapping of the off-grid RE market and presentation of opportunities to engage in more off-grid RE lending, 2) marketing and product development, and 3) best practices in conducting due diligence and partnership evaluation of off-grid RE companies. On January 30, CEADIR organized a finance matchmaking event for lenders, solar developers, and potential RE borrowers. The matchmaking event consisted first of a CEADIR presentation providing an overview of the off-grid RE sector in Uganda, highlighting the potential for Ugandan banks to lend to the sector, current obstacles and risks associated with lending, and potential next steps to build capacity and de-risk lending. A presentation from the UN Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) followed, which highlighted the foreign exchange risks faced by off-grid RE companies that receive U.S. dollar or Euro financing, but only have local currency receivables instead of domestic currency financing. A matchmaking session followed the presentations. Participating finance providers included Ugandan banks, impact investors and development FIs operating in off-grid RE in Uganda (e.g., UNCDF, Pearl Capital Partners), and the USAID-funded Uganda Off-grid Energy Market Accelerator (UOMA) and Power Africa Electricity Supply Accelerator (PAUESA). Participating off-grid RE companies included solar home system distributors, and minigrid developers. PAUESA co-sponsored this event. CEADIR identified a pipeline of 12 potential RE transactions for commercial bank financing. Rwanda: CEADIR delivered a one-day group training session for nine banks through the Rwandan Bankers Association, two-day training for Coge Bank, and one-day training for I&M Bank. Topics included technologies and business models for off-grid RE, structured finance, and credit risk assessment. CEADIR obtained approval for a work plan to provide BPR with marketing and change management for RE loans. However, this work did not move forward because Equity Bank bought out BPR. Instead, USAID/Rwanda recommended that CEADIR provide TA to AB Bank. BPR closed on a $59,000 off-grid solar loan to a K-12 school (Greenhills Academy) that CEADIR had provided early-stage transactional support to. The loan was for a 40 kWp rooftop solar system.

Deliverables:  Workshop materials  Final report: Local Governance and Private Sector Opportunities for Adaptation to Climate Change, Biodiversity, and Livelihoods in Madagascar 3.13 LITERATURE REVIEW AND COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS ON IMPROVED CACAO PRODUCTION METHODS IN GHANA CEADIR submitted a draft literature review on more sustainable production practices for cacao in Ghana and other West African countries CEADIR prepared a design memo for the cost-benefit analysis of improved cacao production practices in Ghana and gathered data in country. CEADIR prepared a Communications Plan that considers how results from the CBAs will be shared across various platforms and networks. CEADIR consulted with the USAID Mission and the Wildlife Conservation Society in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to determine the availability of data for including this country in the CBA. CEADIR and USAID/W concurred that this would not be feasible with available resources. CEADIR co-organized a workshop on March 19 in Ghana with the World Cocoa Foundation to disseminate preliminary findings and obtain stakeholders’ feedback. CEADIR prepared a comparison tool for the workshop to that companies and stakeholders can use to input their own data and to plan for ongoing data collection. Deliverables:  CBA design memo  Draft report: The Value of Climate-Smart Cacao Production: A Literature Review  Draft report: Cost Benefit Analysis of Improved Cacao Production Methods in Ghana  Draft workbook spreadsheet summarizing CEADIR’s analysis and results

 Draft comparison tool that companies and stakeholders can use to input their own data and to plan for ongoing data collection. 3.14 PERU SUPPORT FOR NATIONAL ADAPTATION PLAN FINANCING CEADIR submitted a draft report on engaging stakeholders in national adaptation planning project development and financing for agriculture, health, and fisheries and aquaculture. Deliverables:  Draft report: Support for National Adaptation Plans: Peru 3.15 COST-BENEFIT ANALYIS OF IMPROVED LIVESTOCK MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN THE OROMIA LOWLANDS OF ETHIOPIA

CEADIR partnered with the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) on a CBA of pastoralist association pilot tests of improved pasture management practices for ruminant livestock:  Deferred-rotation grazing;  Active restoration of degraded rangelands; and  Fodder cultivation; CEADIR prepared a design memo for the CBA. CIAT trained local enumerators to conduct household surveys of livestock producers and focus group interviews with pastoralist associations. The study area was the Yabello zone of Oromia region. CEADIR analyzed the data and prepared financial and economic analyses. The economic analysis considered the impact on soil carbon sequestration of rangelands and methane emissions by increases in ruminant populations. Deferred-rotation grazing had a negative net present value (NPV) for farmers, compared to the business-as-usual case, mainly due to the cost of purchasing hay. Active restoration of rangeland and fodder cultivation had substantial NPVs to farmers over 15-20 year periods, but the payback periods were too long for low-income, small-scale livestock producers. The economic analysis valued net changes in GHG emissions at three values for the social cost of carbon, but the net impacts were small since increases in methane partly balanced out increased soil carbon sequestration. CEADIR also considered the feasibility of including more intensive poultry production in the CBA, but data were not available in the study areas. Deliverables:  Study methodology  Draft report: Cost-Benefit Analysis of Improved Livestock Management Practices in the Oromia Lowlands of Ethiopia 3.16 EMERGING MARKETS FOR U.S. SMARTGRID SUPPLIERS AND INVESTORS CEADIR organized a half-day Forum on Emerging Markets for U.S. Smart Grid Suppliers and Investors in Washington, DC on March 12, with logistical support from the USAID-funded Sharing Environment and Energy Knowledge (SEEK) Activity. CEADIR prepared the event program, presentations, and related materials. CEADIR submitted a final reportand conducted a post-event survey of participants. Deliverables:

CEADIR conducted secondary research and interviewed key informants on the challenges and opportunities in incorporating BESS into RE auctions. CEADIR helped USAID prepare for a scoping trip that identified distributed energy resource (DER) planning as a priority for stakeholders in Colombia. CEADIR interviewed utilities and regulatory agencies in the U.S. about the experiences in DER planning to inform their counterparts in developing countries. 3.18 COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF CHARCOAL USE AND ALTERNATIVES IN MALAWI

CEAIDR submitted a draft SOW and budget to conduct a CBA of charcoal use and alternatives in Malawi: 1. Charcoal carbonized in a traditional kiln and used in a traditional stove without airflow regulation; 2. Charcoal carbonized in a traditional kiln and used in an efficient wood stove; 3. Charcoal carbonized in a more efficient steel cylinder kiln and used in a traditional stove without airflow regulation; 4. Charcoal carbonized in a steel cylinder kiln and used in a relatively efficient stove; 5. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) used in a relatively efficient stove; 6. Kerosene used in a relatively efficient stove; 7. Electric cooking for grid-connected households; 8. Small-scale biomass gasification and gas stoves; 9.

Name Payments for Results Terms of Reference for Business Advisory Service (BAS) Providers Activity Expanding Small-Scale, Off-Grid Renewable Energy Lending in Ghana, Rwanda, and Uganda Instances 2, Ghana and Rwanda To support Power Africa’s transaction-oriented goals, CEADIR provided transactional support in Ghana, Rwanda, and Uganda. CEADIR sought to identify a pipeline of viable bankable projects which it could bring forth to banks for loan applications. CEADIR’s approach to sourcing projects for financing consisted in subcontracting with Business Advisory Service (BAS) providers, i.e. local companies with knowledge of the country’s energy sector and experience with project finance. CEADIR developed innovative performance-based Terms of Reference (TORs) for the BAS providers. The BAS provider TORs included the following milestones for results-based payments:

Deliverable Payment Amount Client work plan approved by CEADIR Fee of USD $1,000 Description Loan or equity application submitted to Transaction value up to USD $500,000: Fee is 1% of transaction value, up to a Financial Institution after approval by maximum of USD $5,000; Transaction value of USD $500,001 and higher: Fee is 1.5% CEADIR of transaction value, up to a maximum of USD $10,000 Transaction value up to USD $500,000: Fee is 1% of transaction value, up to a Proof of credit approval maximum of USD $5,000; Transaction value of USD $500,001 and higher: Fee is 1.5% of transaction value, up to a maximum of USD $15,000 Proof of disbursement of credit or $1,000 if BAS needs to perform specific work for the project to meet conditions precedents investment capital for disbursement Total CEADIR will pay a maximum of USD $27,000 per transaction
