India programs / PACER
PACR of a project (1987-97) to promote the development of new or innovative products or processes relevant to the Indian energy sector (PACER project). The project was implemented by the Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India (ICICI). PACER provided conditional grant assistance totaling $15.6 million to 29 projects, comprising 2 solicited and 27 unsolicited proposals. Of these, 18 projects have been completed, 5 are under implementation, and the remaining 6 were truncated. Of the 18 completed projects, 6 have already been commercialized and repayments to PACER have started. PACER has had a positive impact on the energy research scenario in India. Several technology development projects relating to energy efficiency, energy conservation, and alternative fuels were taken up that might not have seen the light of day but for PACER. Only a few projects like the Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) "Pressurized fluidized bed gasifier" project might have materialized without PACER. According to a report prepared by the Business Consulting Group (BCG), the potential impact of PACER funded projects likely to see commercialization in India is estimated at Rs. 73 billio
