The Retrospective Review has been recently released by the Secretariat for CEI Projects (CEI-PS) with the purpose of analysing the last 17 years of activity of the CEI Trust Fund at the EBRD.

Impact Assessment of Energy Audits Programme
The Impact Assessment of Energy Audits (EA) Programme has been prepared by the Programme Manager of the Secretariat for CEI projects. The publication presents the EA Programme funded by the CEI Trust Fund at the EBRD, in particular the audit's methodology and model as well as selected ex-post analysis of selected audits. The results of the analysis show the importance of Technical Assistance in raising the priority of energy efficiency projects within companies and to ensure that viable projects are incorporated into the companies long-term investment plan. Through its Programme the CEI has complemented the long-term funding provided by the EBRD, in this way enabling investments in projects that would otherwise be postponed or not implemented, and helping clients to increasingly unlock the potential for energy saving.
