Impact

Essential climate solutions

The EU Accession and Neighborhood regions are experiencing significant growth

But long-term growth must be sustainable.
 

Renewable energy, energy efficiency and resource efficiency projects help strengthen energy security, stabilise supply chains and mitigate climate risks. And they require significant capital. 

 

We invest via local financial institutions, and directly in projects that are often too large for local banks and too small for global development banks. 

 

We provide the financing, and advisory and capacity building they need to succeed.

“We have always sought to deploy impactful green finance. But, just as crucially, we have aimed to be an impact multiplier by supporting our partners and markets to do the same.” 

Simon Gupta, Chairperson

Financing sustainable growth 

We help economies develop sustainably by channeling dedicated finance through 70+ local financial institutions, including directly in real-economy projects.


Our investments aim to reduce CO₂ emissions, strengthen energy security, and embed sustainability and green finance in the financial sector and real economy

 

We finance projects that address:

 

Renewable energy 
Meeting growing energy demand, helping countries reduce fossil-fuel dependency, and supporting solar, wind, hydro, and other renewable projects.

 

Energy efficiency
Supporting sustainable industries, making sustainability economically viable and helping lower energy costs.

 

Resource efficiency
Supporting industries to reduce energy and water consumption, financing green solutions and supporting sustainable growth.
