This sector focuses on financing and supporting projects that harness renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass. Investing in renewable energy infrastructure reduces dependence on fossil fuels, mitigates greenhouse gas emissions, and promotes a transition to a more sustainable energy system. It also covers Smart grids & transmission networks which can help to integrate renewable energy sources (including batteries) into the power grid and make it more efficient.
This refers to infrastructure investments that encourage greener and more efficient modes of transportation, including public transit, electric vehicles (and EV charging), bike lanes, pedestrian pathways, and intermodal transportation systems. Public transportation projects such as light rail and bus rapid transit can help to reduce traffic congestion and air pollution. By promoting sustainable transportation options, greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector can be significantly reduced.
This sector targets investments in energy-efficient and environmentally friendly buildings, green infrastructure, vertical farms and climate-resilient urban planning. Green building initiatives involve energy-efficient designs, renewable energy integration, and sustainable materials to minimise the carbon footprint and enhance resilience against climate-related impacts.
It's important to note that climate-smart infrastructure finance can encompass various other sectors and initiatives, including natural resource conservation, water management, sustainable waste management, and coastal protection/adaptation projects. These examples illustrate the wide range of climate-smart infrastructure projects that can help mitigate climate change, increase resilience, and promote sustainable development.
What is certain is that the case for building tomorrow’s infrastructure around clean, climate-smart technologies is compelling, enabling Paris Agreement emission targets and energy access goals to be met while underpinning sustainable economic growth and job creation in emerging markets and developing economies.
It is clear to us also that climate-smart infrastructure finance is an important part of the global effort to mitigate climate change and adapt to its impacts. Additionally, the scope of climate-smart infrastructure finance may continue to evolve over time as new technologies, policies, and challenges emerge in the context of addressing climate change.
By committing to only raising finance for climate-smart infrastructure projects in EMDEs, we know we can help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and make our communities more resilient to the effects of climate change.
