520 _aThis book provides insight to policy makers and market actors regarding the way that new and innovative business models can stimulate the deployment of renewable energy technologies and energy efficiency measures in the built environment. The book analyses ten business models in three categories, including amongst others, different types of Energy Service Companies, developing properties certified with a 'green' building label, building owners profiting from rent increases after implementing energy efficiency measures, Property Assessed Clean Energy financing, on-bill financing, and leasing of renewable energy equipment, as well as their organisational and financial structure, the existing market and policy context, and an analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. After looking at all of these elements, the book concludes with recommendations for policy makers and other market actors on how to encourage and accelerate the deployment of renewable energy technologies in the built environment. The basis for this publication was a project initiated and funded by the International Energy Agency's Implementing Agreement for Renewable Energy Technology Deployment (IEA-RETD). Working under the legal framework of the International Energy Agency, the IEA-RETD was officially launched in September 2005 with five founding members. Current members of the IEA-RETD are Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, and the United Kingdom. The IEA-RETD's mandate is to address cross-cutting issues influencing further deployment of renewable energy and to act as a vehicle to accelerate the market introduction and deployment of renewable energy technologies. More information on the IEA-RETD can be found on the organisation's webpage at: http://iea-retd.org/ Book jacket.
