Key messages

• ElectriFI is a model proposed by the private sector and EDFIs that the European Commission has put forward to a larger consultation.
• The initiative will guarantee active involvement of the private sector as well as long-term sustainability and leverage. This will target a larger group of beneficiaries.
• Comments and recommendations received are of utmost relevance to build up a solid and long-lasting partnership between the public and the private sector. These comments and recommendations will be reflected in the revised ElectriFI Working Document that will be distributed shortly.
• The discussion will have to continue with the representatives of the Member States of the EU.
