The Solar Criteria
Investment in solar is growing as costs come down, technology improves and energy policies shift towards renewables. But clean energy development still needs a huge increase in funding and scale.
As part of this, we are seeing solar based green bonds now being Climate Bond Certified from Australia to India to Germany.
The next Webinar in our 2016 Green Bonds 101 Series looks at the Climate Bonds Solar Criteria and asks:
What’s involved in Solar Criteria certification?
Can solar bonds help shift investment into the hundreds of billions?
Does certification encourage investors to back solar green bonds?
Climate Bonds is often asked these questions, in this Webinar we provide some answers.
Join us to learn more from Climate Bonds Initiative experts and recent Certified Solar Bond issuers, followed by a Q&A session.
