Since 2005, > $25 billion in long term climate financing for renewable power, energy efficiency, sustainable agriculture, green buildings and private sector adaptation projects (including $15.3 billion from IFC s own account and $10.1 billion in mobilization of other private investment) $23 trillion Size of climate business opportunity in developing countries (in energy, green buildings, cities, etc.) IFC (2017) Climate Investment Opportunities Report 11

12 IFC Advisory Solutions: Energy, Water & Green Buildings ENERGY WATER GREEN BUILDINGS On-grid renewables (solar, wind, hydro, and hybrid systems such as floating solar on hydro reservoirs) Off-grid renewables (particularly through distributed generation technologies and energy storage systems) Energy efficiency (focusing on sectoral and supply chain interventions). Promoting sustainable industrial and urban water and waste management, e.g. textiles, cement, chemicals, municipal waste Enabling environment for Green Buildings (e.g. policies, regulations, incentives) Certification of new and existing buildings (e.g. offices, homes, schools, etc.) Analysis and innovation Facilitating financing IFC has build a successful long-term (15 year) Advisory partnership with Austrian government in these areas 12

13 Workshop Focus: IFC in Resource Efficiency 1. INDUSTRIAL Towards responsible industries and increased competitiveness for the private sector IFC invests in process improvements and other technology to reduce energy, water and other resource use in sectors such as cement, metals, textiles, pulp and paper, chemicals, construction, manufacturing, and power generation, transmission, and distribution. As advisory, we work in: Water & Energy efficiencies and wastewater management in the textile industry Captive energy, alternative fuels and other technologies in the cement sector REF in other manufacturing industries Waste-to-energy / renewable energy for firms 2. URBAN Supporting the Circular Economy IFC work with cities, which with their growing urban populations, provide a strong platform for promoting sustainability and circular economy. As part of its focus on cities, IFC s Green Buildings Program stimulates demand for green buildings and boosts the capacity of developers and banks to build and finance environmentally friendly construction. As advisory, we work in: Green Buildings Eco/Smart Cities, Municipal Services, Waste Management, Street Lighting, Transport 13

14 Global Footprint, Increased Focus on Frontier Markets Presence in 100+ developing countries brings impact and innovation Latin America and the Caribbean REF in LAC Industrial and Cement (Mexico, Guatemala, Argentina, Brazil) Europe and Central Asia Cities (Turkey) Industrial REF (Bulgaria, Turkey) Green Buildings in LAC region Middle East and North Africa Green supply chains in textile (Pakistan) Cement REF (Egypt) Sub-Saharan Africa Green Buildings Edge certification (South Africa) Industrial & Cement REF (South Africa, Nigeria and others) Loss reduction in Transmission and Distribution Networks (Kenya) South Asia Green Buildings (India) Partnership for Clean Textiles (Bangladesh) Cities and efficient street lighting (India) Cement REF (India, Nepal) East Asia and the Pacific Green Buildings Regulation & promotion (Vietnam, Indonesia, China, Philippines) Green textile & apparel supply chains (Vietnam, China) 14

15 Leveraging IFC Advisory for Climate-Smart Investment ENGAGE UPSTREAM to prepare the ground (prior to identifying potential projects or clients) DEVELOP PROJECTS to get investments off the ground (potential project identified) SUPPORT FIRMS to become investment ready (in challenging markets) IFC Investment Services in climate-friendly resource efficiency projects Direct loans and equity investments Credit facilities to banks Support in structuring and attracting off-balance sheet financing supported by Advisory Services Assessments, pre/feasibility studies and implementation support for: thermal and electric energy efficiency, waste heat recovery, alternative fuels, solar PV and wind captive power solutions etc. Promote the broad adoption of emerging technologies and good practices through case studies and benchmarking Market intelligence and sector analysis Regulatory Reforms ~ $1 billion ~$500 million IFC investments in Industrial Energy Efficiency and Green Buildings projects in FY17 (including funds mobilized from others) IFC long-term climate-smart investments with Austrian sponsors (e.g. power, textiles, chemicals), e.g. Lenzing in Brazil, Indonesia and Pacific.
