In terms of qualitative impact, proposals under this topic should demonstrate how they will contribute to the following outcomes, as relevant: delivering financing schemes that are operational and ready to finance investments, with credible access to financing sources and a prospective pipeline of investments increasing the investibility of energy efficiency projects (potentially combined with renewable energy and energy storage) for private financing sources accelerating investments in energy efficiency. In terms of quantitative impact, proposals should quantify their results and impacts using the indicators provided for the topic, when they are relevant for the proposed activities.
