Project developers have identified limited access to credit \u2013 while capital providers have expressed concerns on a lack of pipeline of bankable green projects. On one hand, insufficient financial performance of green projects \u2013 especially given in-country economic incentives \u2013 may limit the development of projects. On the other hand, a mismatch between project characteristics and investors\u2019 needs may limit the flow of finance, even when a project is economically viable. This mismatch between investors\u2019 needs and the green project market is one of the main barriers to address in order to support financial flows at scale going from where the capital is to where it is needed \u2013 project developers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This event aimed to present and discuss the potential of specific financial instruments and approaches increasingly used to address this mismatch: &#8216;blended&#8217; climate finance, green bonds and credit lines. Discussions will focus on the steps needed by public and private stakeholders to ensure both the financial and environmental impact of such instruments, and their role in domestic implementation of NDCs to achieve international long-term climate objectives. Particular attention was given to the African context and experience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\"><strong>Key takeaways of this event<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>1.<b>No <\/b><b>one size of instruments fits all needs <\/b>\u2013 green bonds, green credit lines, blended finance and other instruments can fill different financial niches and roles depending on: \u00a0who are the project developers; the sectors; the size of projects; \u00a0the needs of those institutions providing capital; the depth of domestic capital markets; and the technical capacity of the financial institutions involved.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>2.<b>When <\/b><b>instruments<\/b><b> are selected for use, two key areas must receive careful attention to ensure a tangible and robust contribution to supporting the low-carbon, resilient transition<\/b>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Financial <\/b><b>Additionality<\/b><b>: <\/b>or the ability to leverage new resources or better terms for project developers;<\/li>\n<li><b>Environmental <\/b><b>Integrity: <\/b>end-uses have positive and aligned environmental and financial outcomes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Cases presented in the event<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: lower-alpha;\">\n<li><b>AFD\u2019s work in extending <\/b><b>green credits lines <\/b>to commercial local banks in developing countries to facilitate both <b>access to capital <\/b>for EE and RE projects, as well as <b>technical capacity building <\/b>to support lasting in-country market development.
