Book excerpt: DOE's Loan Programs Office administers the Loan Guarantee Program (LGP) for certain renewable or innovative energy projects and the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) loan program for projects to produce more fuel-efficient vehicles and components. As of March 2014, the programs had made more than $30 billion in loans and guarantees: approximately $21.9 billion for 33 loan guarantees under the LGP and $8.4 billion for 5 loans under the ATVM loan program. Both programs can expose the government and taxpayers to substantial financial risks should borrowers default. GAO assessed the extent to which DOE has developed and adhered to loan monitoring policies for its loan programs for 2009 to 2013. GAO analyzed relevant regulations and guidance; prior audits; DOE policies; and DOE data, documents, and monitoring reports for a nonprobability sample of 10 loans and guarantees. Findings from the sample are not generalizable, but the sample covered a range of technologies and loan statuses. GAO also interviewed DOE officials.

This report (1) describes DOE's loan portfolio and the portfolio's current status; (2) describes the current estimated credit subsidy costs of the loan programs and the extent to which credit subsidy cost estimates changed; and (3) examines DOE's administrative costs for the loan programs and the extent to which fees have covered LGP's administrative costs.

Book excerpt: DOE's Loan Programs Office administers the LGP and the ATVM loan program to support certain renewable or innovative energy technologies. Both programs can expose the government and taxpayers to substantial financial risks if borrowers default. DOE accounts for two types of program costs: credit subsidy costs and administrative costs. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires LGP to charge and collect fees to cover applicable administrative expenses. GAO has an ongoing mandate to review the LGP. Because DOE administers the LGP and ATVM loan program through one office, GAO included both programs in this review. This report (1) describes DOE's loan portfolio and the portfolio's current status, (2) describes the current estimated credit subsidy costs of the loan programs and the extent to which credit subsidy cost estimates changed, and (3) examines DOE's administrative costs for the loan programs and the extent to which fees have covered LGP's administrative costs. GAO analyzed regulations and guidance, prior audits, and DOE data on credit subsidy estimates and administrative costs for all loans and guarantees originated under these loan programs. GAO also interviewed DOE officials.

This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the Department of Energy's loan guarantee program was designed to give federal support to risky, innovative, clean energy technology. Under a federal loan guarantee, instead of the private sector taking on risk to fund the scaleup of new technology, the government steps in, risking federal dollars on the hopes for success of these energy projects. Through the section 1703 and 1705 programs, the Department guaranteed loans to 30 energy companies, putting about $28 billion of taxpayer money on the line. Easy money combined with political pressure to issue loans before the temporary subsidy program expired led the DOE to rush loan applications. Both the DOE Inspector General and the Government Accountability Office found that DOE did not have the necessary expertise or the metrics to effectively evaluate these loans. A number of companies that received section 1705 loans went into default. In total, over $800 million in taxpayer money has been wasted by this DOE loan program. The GAO estimates that the cost for the current loan guarantees is $2.2 billion. Supporters argue the cost is justified if we can help innovative technologies make the leap to the commercial market. But what if federal meddling in the market actually hurts innovation?

Book excerpt: Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 established DoE¿s loan guarantee program (LGP) for innovative energy projects that should decrease air pollutants or greenhouse gases and that have a reasonable prospect of repayment. For FY 2008 and 2009, Congress authorized the use of borrower fees to pay the costs of loan guarantees; DoE will limit loan guarantees to $38.5 billion. Congress mandated this review of DoE¿s progress in assessing progress in: (1) issuing final regulations; and (2) taking actions to help ensure that the program is managed effectively and to maintain accountability. Also assessed how inherent risks due to the nature of the LGP may affect DoE¿s ability to achieve intended program outcomes. Includes recommendations. Illus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the technical, market, and policy innovations for unlocking sustainable investment in the energy sector. While finalizing this book, the COVID-19 pandemic is cutting a devastating swath through the global economy, causing the biggest fall in energy sector investment, exacerbating the global trade finance gap, worsening signs of growing income inequality, and devastating the health and livelihoods of millions. What is the parallel between the COVID-19 pandemic and the climate change crisis? The impacts of the global pandemic are expected to last for a few years, whereas those associated with the climate crisis will play out over several decades with potentially irreversible consequences. However, both show that the cost of inaction or delay in addressing the risks can lead to devastating outcomes or a greater probability of irreversible, catastrophic damages. In the context of sustainable energy investment and the transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient economy, what ways can financial markets and institutions support net-zero-emission activities and the shift to a sustainable economy, including investment in energy efficiency, low-carbon and renewable energy technologies? This book provides students, policymakers, and energy investment professionals with the knowledge and theoretical tools necessary to address related questions in sustainable energy investment, risk management, and energy innovation agendas.
