Unlocking the Potential of New Financing Mechanisms for Accelerating the Energy Transition (Invite only)

-

Rising global tensions, conflicts in Europe and the Middle East, frontline energy poverty for billions of people, and extreme weather effects in real time are forcing a re-set in thinking about how we can accelerate the energy transition to net zero. Achieving this progress will need to be anchored by market-based realities, not just theoretical projections on climate technology pathways, including carbon removal and renewable deployment rates. Nature-based solutions, carbon credits, voluntary carbon offsets, green bonds, and similar investment vehicles have appealed to a growing number of market participants, creating opportunities to advance and improve upon them. This private session will focus on innovative all-of-the above approaches to advance energy transition strategies and partnerships.
