소개
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is the world's largest climate fund dedicated to helping developing countries take climate action. GCF helps developing countries limit or reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. It seeks to promote a paradigm shift to low-emission and climate-resilient development, taking into account the needs of nations that are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts. It was set up by the 194 countries who are parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2010, as part of the Convention’s financial mechanism. It aims to deliver equal amounts of funding to mitigation and adaptation, while being guided by UNFCCC's principles and provisions. When the Paris Agreement was reached in 2015, GCF was given an important role in serving the agreement and supporting the goal of keeping global temperature rise well below 2 degrees Celsius. Responding to the climate challenge requires collective action from all countries, including by both public and private sectors. Among these concerted efforts, advanced economies have agreed to jointly mobilize significant financial resources. Coming from a variety of sources, these resources address the pressing mitigation and adaptation needs of developing countries.

⚡️ Breaking news ⚡️ We’re celebrating today after reaching first close on our REPP 2 fund with USD 185 million in total commitments! Investors Green Climate Fund, Norfund, FMO - Dutch entrepreneurial development bank, BIO - the Belgian Investment Company for Developing Countries, Ceniarth and REPP (Renewable Energy Performance Platform) have formally committed to invest USD 107 million in REPP 2, with a further USD 78 million committed subject to conditions. REPP 2 is a USD 250m private debt fund that builds on the legacy of REPP, which is managed by Camco and funded by UK International Development. It is structured as a blended finance fund to leverage public and private investors to invest in Sub-Saharan Africa’s distributed and small-scale renewable energy market. To have the support of so many world-leading investors who share our vision for African grid of the future – which is decentralised, renewable and reliable - and recognise the critical role of blended finance in the sector, is testament to the value they see in REPP 2. With first close achieved, we are excited to now turn out attention to the real work, which is to get REPP 2 into implementation phase and delivering substantial climate and economic impact in Sub-Saharan Africa while ensuring sustainable returns for investors. Over its lifetime, REPP 2 plans to: ➡️ Make 35+ investments in decentralised renewable energy projects or companies ➡️ Provide 7.7 million people with improved access to clean and affordable power ➡️ Mitigate over 12.7 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions ➡️ Invest USD 70 million in gender-focused projects ➡️ Mobilise USD 786 million in third-party funding for green growth Today’s news comes after many months of hard work and determination from all sides of the negotiating table. We would therefore like to take this opportunity to extend our heartfelt thanks to Fedde Zwart, Dorina Peristeri, Jana Bannat, Mark Davis, Rivhatshinyi Mandavha, Reza Mardanghom, Per Kristian Sbertoli, Marnix Monsfort, Tellef Thorleifsson, Diane Isenberg, Simone Verbraeken, Sophie Andrews, Peter Coveliers, Andrew Lucas, Usher, E., Daniel Farchy, Kavita Sinha, Nestan Devidze, Helena Gostelow, Stefan Freeman, as well to Camco’s Benjamin Hugues, Yuliia Uhorska, Geoff Sinclair and Aili Judström, to name but a few. 🔗 Read the press release for more: https://lnkd.in/e5u6vJAd #climatefinance #blendedfinance #impactinvesting #sustainability #energyaccess #renewableenergy #emergingmarkets #subsaharanafrica
