There’s substantial growth potential for green lending, particularly in developing countries where energy demand is growing at the fastest rate. How does green lending work? How can it be implemented within your institution? The Global Climate Partnership Fund (GCPF) practitioner’s guide to green lending is designed to answer these questions. Chapters 1 and 2 present a range of potential green investments, including green buildings, energy-efficient equipment and renewable energy supplies, as well as the potential benefits of these investments to specific target clients, including small and medium-sized enterprises and households. Chapter 3 outlines how the GCPF can provide technical assistance and support your bank in implementing green lending.
