Description: The goals of the ESCO Roundtable are to:
- Increase understanding of the ESCO business model, accelerate adoption by MNOs and towercos, with the goal of scaling ESCOs faster;
- Optimise the operational delivery performance of ESCOs by sharing direction and best practices with both the leaders of the ESCOs themselves, and with MNOs’ and towercos’ Partner Managers;
- Evangelise the ESCO model to prospective investors, thereby attracting more funding at lower cost, with a view to deepening the pool of viable prospective ESCO partners;
- Refine stakeholders’ understanding of the scenarios where ESCOs are the best partners, and those where towercos remain critical – exploring how ESCOs and towercos can co-operate;
- Showcase proven green energy innovations, with the goal to continue to further reduce reliance on fossil fuels, while at the same time reducing costs.
