IIEC has been subcontracted by the Philippine Efficient Lighting Market Transformation Project (PELMATP) of the Philippine Department of Energy (DOE) or PELMATP-DOE for the Formulation and Implementation of EEL Leasing Model that will serve as a template for electric cooperatives and utilities. An EEL leasing/ installment payment scheme will soon be implemented through a rural electric cooperative which is expanding its rural electrification in its franchised area including depressed communities. The CFL leasing/ installment payment will be integrated with an-going house wiring loan which already has an existing billing and collection system on which the proposed CFL leasing/ installment payment scheme will be attached to. IIEC’s tasks in this assignment include:
• Study and draw lessons learned from the implementation of the CFL Paylight Program of the Cagayan Electric Power and Light Company, Inc. (CEPALCO)
• Study the business development and marketing strategies of electric utilities and RECs
• Design an EEL Leasing Model appropriate to the operation of electric utilities and RECs
• In collaboration with PELMATP PMO identify an electric utility and an REC on which to test or implement the model
• Monitor the first month operation of the leasing scheme and refine the model.
