On-bill schemes are innovative financial frameworks for supporting investments in energy efficiency with a particular focus on residential buildings. These schemes are interesting since they allow to attract private capital in the energy efficiency market, and they also see the involvement of energy utilities which can be regarded as market aggregators. the present paper employs the Value Flow Model to develop four business models to implement on-bill schemes. In particular, standard on-bill financing and on-bill repayment business models are developed in detail. In addition, more complicated and innovative business models, namely on-bill repayment via a Special Purpose Vehicle and on-bill repayment with a Master Servicer, are also developed for more complex schemes. These four fundamental business models can be used and adapted according to market context of operation. Finally, the possible involvement of Distribution System Operators as service providers or facilitators for on-bill schemes is also outlined.

The evaluation of energy efficiency interventions is affected by numerous parameters and variables and most of them are uncertain. the objective of ERV-tool is to allow the evaluation and bundling of energy efficiency investment in residential sector. its main feature are: engineering, financial and risk anayses all integrated in one tool simple modulare structure to develop comprehensive analyses user friendly interface fo calculations development broad range of results available for undertaking investment decisions

practical guidelines to any energy utility or other market actor interested in developing an on-bill offer for the energy renovation of residential buildings. The aim is to accompany the utility from the very beginning of the process, studying the national and local framework conditions and carrying out an examination of its strategical preferences that will help to assess the feasibility of launching on-bill offers. This report contains: framework conditions, listing key factors for the development of on-bill schemes; the business model selection, presenting a structured decision-making process aimed at choosing the most adequate on-bill business model in view of the framework conditions; the business model analysis, illustrating four fully developed on-bill business models to explain the main components of the Value Framework methodologies and the methodology annex, which gives insight to the theoretical basis behind the mentioned sections.
