5 A Mongolia Case: PPP for Green Educational Buildings Current technology GREEN KINDERGARDEN GREEN PUBLIC TRANSPORT Six interrelated components: Vision Developing Public Transport Oriented Green City 1. Technology options analysis for kindergartens (with GTC-K) 2. Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) of selected options 3. Assessment of potential financing mechanisms for selected options 4. Demonstration of public kindergarten design specifications 5. Full suite of construction plan for demonstration of public kindergarten 6. Guideline on green engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of public education buildings Goal (2020) 1. Reduction of GHG Emission in Transport Sector by 10% 2. Increase Public Transport Modal Share by 20% 3. Improve Average Traffic Speed for Bus by 20% Bus Route System Fare system&smart card Main Task Intelligent Transport System (ITS) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) 10 Green Development Overview Capacity Building of Multiple Stakeholders and Cost benefit analysis of green public kindergarten Facilities in Mongolia Financing Mechanisms for Green Public Education Buildings in Mongolia July, 2016 May 2016 Adapting Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) to the Green Building Principles August 2016 i Prepared by: i i

6 Mongolia Case: PPP for Green Educational Buildings

7 Mongolia Case: PPP for Green Educational Buildings Financial Specifications: Initial cost of investment is 25% greater than Business-As-Usual (BAU) Model Operating costs, including heating, electricity, water, and waste water treatment, were significantly lower, reducing the pressure on state and local budgets. Total operating and maintenance cost is half of the BAU model. Remove up to 120 tons of CO 2 emission by reducing the use of coal for heating. Indirect benefits are improve indoor air quality, health of children and staff Project payback period is 14 years

8 Philippines Case: Green Practices among MSMEs in Food Processing Sector Are there any green practices among MSMEs? If yes, is greening profitable? What is role of MSMEs in the Philippine economy and what does green practice mean? Which MSMEs in coffee, cocoa, fruits and nuts processing sectors have green practices? What are green practices levels (change of mindset, affordable purchase or technological solutions)? How green practices are beneficial and profitable to these businesses (SWOT and CBA)?

9 Philippines Case: Green Practices of MSMEs in Food Sector Key findings Cacao Coffee Processed Fruits (Banana) Processed Nuts (Pili) Green practices among MSMEs in coffee, cocoa, fruits and nuts processing sector the Philippines is at infancy stage (limited green practices and low response at the moment) Greening intervention does not always require investment Greening is profitable (CBA results in 58%-75% cost savings and IRR 19%-224%) Growing market demand, strong potential to expand and limited resources (SWOT analysis) Needs more leveraging support from the Government, cluster associations and development partners in knowhow/research, financing and market expansion.
