Equity is generally available
Equity from foreign investors is also available
Equity availability is heavily skewed towards a few states
Lack of debt may reduce available equity in the medium

For profit company – Solar Home
systems – started 1996 – sold about
100,000 SHS
90% of products – credit schemes
Partnership with 9 banks – interest rates
between 12-17%
Financing Institutions pay 85% of the
amount- monthly payments of Rs 300-
400 over a period of 5 years
Financing/ repayment options –
tailormade to end users – paddy farmers
– repayment schedule based on crop
cycle, street vendors – daily payments –
Rs 10
Funding from REEP – meet margin
amount for poor customers, reduce
interest rate

DESI Power
27
Biomass based power solutions – Bihar- 25 kW to 100 kW
Local distributors – decide pricing
Registered under CDM and sold CERs to Swiss buyer
MNRE funds, Promoters Equity, ICICI Loan
Monthly rate based on no of bulbs / loads, Circuit breaker to limit consumption
Irrigation pump users Rs 50/ hour, Household Rs 120- 150 per month
Underground trunk wiring-distribution
Enabling micro-enterprises –battery charging station, flour mill, workshop etc
Tie up with Telecom towers – increasing capacity factor
Husk Power
28
Initial funding – prize money
30-100 kW – biomass gasifiers- based on rice husk
Energy audit of households
Focus on household demand for lighting
Lower production, operating costs – use of bamboo, asbestos
Overhead pole wiring
Directly reach end user

Summary
32
Problem with debt in India– high interest rates, variable, short tenor (adds 20-28% to cost of project)
Technology uncertainty, Data uncertainty – e.g JNNSM
Policy Mechanism – REC not having desired effect
Innovative business, technology models – cookstoves – large untapped market
Efficiency – CFL – BLY – dependence on CER market, not achieving the scale planned
Untapped – Bottom of Pyramid potential – innovative financing targettedto local needs, end –users
Technology Development- Consortia approaches, Venture capital-Financing early technology
