The financing gap for clean and climate-resilient energy systems remains one of the biggest obstacles to progress—particularly in markets where capital is expensive, regulatory certainty is limited and climate impacts are intensifying. What new partnerships and financial innovations are needed to mobilise investment at scale? How can investors, multilateral banks and policymakers work together to de-risk projects, crowd in private capital and accelerate the delivery of infrastructure that can withstand future shocks? And what must governments do to
bring more bankable, investable projects into the pipeline?
