Blended Finance for Climate Change Objectives
Addressing climate change requires substantial financial investment globally. For instance, CEEW-CEF estimates India will need around USD 10 trillion for net-zero infrastructure over the next 50 years. Developing countries, despite minimal historical emissions, face severe impacts from climate change. They struggle with geographic, economic, and financial challenges, often having fewer resources to fund necessary transitions.

Internal Carbon Pricing
Carbon pricing mechanisms aim to encourage a transition to a low-carbon economy by assigning a cost to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These mechanisms are generally categorized into governmental carbon prices, set by governments, and internal carbon prices, established by companies themselves.

Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs)
India faces a significant infrastructure financing gap exceeding 5% of GDP. To address this, increasing finance flow is crucial. One effective strategy is unlocking capital from operational assets by transferring ownership to investors seeking stable cash flows without development risks. Infrastructure investment trusts (InvITs) can facilitate this by providing developers with fresh capital for new projects.
