OECD and the Leadership Group for Industry Transition (LeadIT), hosted by SEI, are co-organising a webinar on financing solutions needed to accelerate industry decarbonisation in emerging markets.
Industry decarbonisation projects face a series of risks that reduce their attractiveness to investors. As a result, key technologies for industry decarbonisation that are less mature such as low-carbon hydrogen, renewable heat and carbon capture use and storage remain financially underserved. The webinar will assess the different financing sources, products and instruments that can be used to accelerate Net-Zero transitions of industry sub-sectors in emerging economies. More specifically, it will address:
Welcome and opening remarks
Session 1: Challenges and barriers to financing industry decarbonisation
The session will cover the challenges and barriers that manufacturing sub-sectors face when attracting investments. It will also assess the role of public and private financial stakeholders and of other practices, such as ESG criteria and transition finance, in accelerating Net-Zero transitions.
Session 2: Current (and best) practices in financing industry decarbonisation
Identifying the right financing instruments and approaches is key to optimise their effectiveness in the decarbonisation of the industry. This session will explore which are the characteristics of these instruments and what other learnings can developed countries provide to the South.
