Mobilising capital for renewable energy requires robust policies and clear investment signals. This session will explore how policies, regulatory frameworks, and international partnerships can mobilise both public and private investment. Panellists will also share insights on how international cooperation can help close the financing gap.

To stay on track towards the tripling renewables goal by 2030, IRENA estimates that more than 1,000 GW of renewable capacity will need to be added globally. Against this backdrop, this session will bring together project developers, investors, and financing institutions to explore what it takes to move renewable energy projects from concept to financial close. Panellists will discuss the key ingredients for bankability, including project preparation, risk mitigation, and financing structures that can improve investor confidence.

Scaling renewable energy demands equal focus on grid infrastructure, storage, and cross border connectivity. Additionally, green manufacturing through renewables-powered industrial processes and value chain localisation of Renewable Energy components will be key towards enhancing economic competitiveness. This session explores how to mobilise finance for transmission networks, interconnections, enabling low carbon infrastructure and green industrialisation. The panel will also discuss how the region can build the connected energy systems as well as enhance the greening of industries needed to power tomorrow's economies.
