Results-based Financing (RBF) In Penang’s Solid Waste Sector •What •Use an output-based incentive payment program in highrise buildings to encourage household organic waste separation •Goal •Successful source separation that in turn minimizes the quantity of garbage sent to landfills •Expected Benefits • Cost savings to municipality (extended life of landfill) • Re-use of organic waste in the form of organic compost fertilizer • Reduction of methane emissions from the MSW sector Proposed RBF Design Source-Separation of Organic Waste • Residents separate and deposit organic High Rise Buildings waste on-site facility Local Authority / • Collects waste from highrises and Private Company transports it to composting center VA • Measure total quantity and quality of separated organic waste (Verification Agent) PIU • Calculates incentive payment (Project Implementation amount based on IVA score Unit) Pilot Projects Sites Penang Island 1.
