Climate Finance Working Group Meetup #2
NYC Climate Week, 2024 | New York, NY
By the time we meet in New York, it’s time to go deeper—from identifying the challenges to designing actual financial models that unlock investment in climate deployment.
This is where we get tactical. What types of risk-sharing mechanisms and structured finance tools could make climate investments more attractive? How do we de-risk investments for institutional players, just as we did with wind and solar?
We’ll explore strategies like:
Blended Finance – How first-loss capital, DFIs, and catalytic philanthropy can make climate projects bankable
Policy as a Lever – How tax credits, carbon pricing, and market incentives can create investable assets
Securitization & Project Aggregation – Can we bundle smaller-scale projects into fundable, de-risked investment vehicles?
This isn’t theoretical—we’ll have real case studies of successful financing structures, including:
How project finance models from wind and solar could apply to industrial decarbonization, hydrogen, and carbon removal
By the end of this session, we will have working financial models to present at COP 30, with clear recommendations for both investors and policymakers.
