Assessment of Financial Risk Management Instruments for Renewable Energy Projects

This SEFI/GEF targeted research project examines existing instruments and approaches to financial risk management of renewable energy technologies and suggests potential modalities for new instruments that could be developed in partnership with private and public sector financial institutions.

The project aims to identify risks associated with RE projects which could be effectively mitigated by financial risk management instruments, evaluate existing and emerging instruments, and identify the most promising modalities of such instruments where private sector actors are ready to play an active role.

The second consultation meeting took place at UNEP in Paris on 6-7 December 2007, where the three project working groups (large-scale RE technologies, small-scale RE technologies, geothermal technologies) presented their study results.
