  1. Building Energy Smart Communities by Promoting Energy Cooperative Business Model an APEC Project Concept Note, proposed by Russian Federation APEC Energy Working Group Meeting Washington, November 2012

  2. Challenge: Access to Electricity Access to electricity in the world (2008/2030) Far East of Russia: government strategy Energy poverty Far East of Russia: energy poverty

  3. Electric Cooperatives: a Viable Business Model? Experts from APEC economies Would you agree that cooperative can be effective way to introduce microgrid technologies and more renewable energy to local energy sector in island and remote areas? Workshop “Microgrids for Local Energy Supply to Remote Areas and Islands in APEC Region”, Russia 2012

  4. USA – the Leader in Cooperative Energy America’s electric cooperative network Cooperatives and the Smart Grid Electric cooperatives employment Cooperatives and Renewable Energy

  5. Project Rationale • Limited access to energy in remote areas and islands with abundance of unexplored renewables stress the relevance of local (off-grid, decentralised) energy development across the Asia Pacific. • There has been progress in both distributed energy technology and enabling policy development, but the rate of adoption of local energy development models still lags behind. • A viable model for remote, off-grid or microgrid power generation in certain APEC economies (USA, Canada, Australia) suggests engaging local communities to establish electric energy cooperatives.

  6. Project Objectives • To identify and share best practices inestablishing and managing energy cooperatives for accelerated development of local energy systems in remote areas and islands • To enhance the understanding of energy cooperative as a smart business model that mostly meets the requirements of remote and isolated communities • To encourage APEC economies to implement pilot projects of local community-based cooperatives and to further share success stories and methodologies of developing and managing energy cooperatives • To make an essential and result-oriented contribution to the APEC Energy Smart Communities Initiative

  7. Tentative Work Plan & Budget Budget Requested: Total $181,000 (mostly travel and labour costs) Russia $61,000 (mostly hosting and labour costs)
