Public Finance Mechanisms to Catalyze Sustainable Energy Sector Growth
This Sustainable Energy Finance Initiative (SEFI) report was prepared by BASE and UNEP in collaboration with the US Clean Energy Group, and with the financial support of the United Nations Foundation. Its objective is to provide policy-makers and public finance agencies with a guide that traces the investment stages of sustainable energy technology innovation and project development and highlights how public mechanisms can help address the financing barriers that hinder capital formation in the sector. The report describes public interventions along the continuum of financing instruments that a developer must secure to take a technology or project forward – a continuum that today is incomplete due to various imperfections in the energy markets.
