Working papers

Written by Samantha Attridge, Jiajun Xu, Kevin P. Gallagher

This paper analyses the key risks of financing renewable energies and explores the extent such risks differ at different stages of development. It synthesises the comparative advantages of DFIs in achieving clean energy transformation and presents financing approaches and models taken by selected DFIs in piloting and scaling up clean energies. It concludes with six key insights and policy recommendations from the preceding analysis that are relevant for policy-makers.
