What is an energy delivery model?

Emma Wilson

IIED

What is a delivery model?

A delivery model is the process by which energy services are provided to the target consumers, from production to consumption

Same as a business model, but doesn’t have to be pure business (does have to be self-sustaining in the long term)

Distinct from the enabling environment and socio-cultural context but responds to and can influence both

Access to energy

Delivery models

Governance of energy investment, delivery and access

Impacts of energy investment, delivery and access

Investment

Key challenges

How to reach the poorest? (What is the smallest viable scale that can be replicated?)

How to factor in the environment to your delivery model? (What are the potential environment-development trade-offs?)

Who puts in financial or other resources at what point? Does donor involvement benefit or undermine markets?

Can government subsidies help in some cases, or should government be providing other kinds of support?

Can payments in kind from communities overcome the issues of up-front costs and generate ownership at the same time?

What is the most effective way of capturing value for local communities? Where in the value chain is this done most effectively?

Areas of interest Case study analysis:

Typologies of energy delivery models Identify ‘components that work’ and successful innovations Promote replication of delivery models or discrete components/innovations

Analysis of financing models and investment options: Consumer payment/willingness to pay Carbon finance How to scale up investment?

Analysis of market bias and trade-offs: Why are options chosen? (perverse subsidies, lack of alternative technologies) What instruments can bias the market in favour of pro-poor/ sustainable options? Solutions may not be the ‘greenest’ and may still be innovative/able to deliver

development outcomes while not contributing significantly to climate change

Analysis of participation and ownership arrangements: Does the level of participation and ‘ownership’ determine success?
