dc.description.abstract | The zero-carbon energy transition is the solution to the 2022 energy crisis and a fundamental part of the solution to the global climate crisis. But there are relatively low levels of investment in renewable energy in developing countries, hindering their achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and contribution to the Paris Agreement goals. There is therefore an urgent need to scale public and private finance for investment in renewable electricity generation, network infrastructure, and end-use sectors. Five main roadblocks in the way are identified: Developing countries lack the necessary access to low-cost capital to invest in renewables. There is a lack of investment in grid and storage infrastructure and a lack of solutions addressing the off-taker risk. There are insufficient domestic regulatory frameworks for renewable electricity and ill-designed incentives as well as an under-developed institutional capability. Existing regulatory frameworks—in law, contract, and investment treaties—can limit developing country governments’ policy space to implement and adapt policies to promote and leverage investment in renewables. Developing countries’ national energy roadmaps and master plans are either non-existent or ill-designed. The CCSI reports not only identify these roadblocks, but also provide solutions to drive investment in renewables. The report sheds light on the five roadblocks and provides recommendations for the drivers of investment in renewables while distilling solutions from international experience. It clarifies where international and national efforts should urgently be focused to address the deterrents of investment in renewables and enable zero-carbon energy security and prosperity. | - |
dc.description.sponsorship | We thank the following reviewers for their helpful comments and guidance on this report: Jérôme Schmitt, Miguel Muñoz Rodriguez, Gonzalo Saenz De Miera, Marco Serena, and Bruce Usher. We were also guided and supported enormously by Lisa Sachs throughout the project, from its inception to its final stages. We would like to thank Jack Arnold, who spent countless days fixing (and refixing) the footnotes in the report; Ethan Henry Goldstein, Yuko Hashimoto, Aarushi Sahu, and Duoye Xu for their invaluable contributions to the design, analysis, and research of this report and the CCSI–E3G survey; and Jérôme Schmitt and Tom Mitro, who were instrumental at the design phase of the CCSI–E3G survey. We were privileged to have had insightful conversations on various topics throughout the research and writing of this report with Jérôme Schmitt, Lou Wells, Joe Bell, George Kahale III, Haydn Palliser, and the AES team. We also want to thank Susan McGregor, who helped us decipher the data and extract important conclusions from it. Frank Qiankun, Zachary Hanson, and Reed Vettel kindly helped in the dissemination of the survey. The CCSI–E3G survey would not have been possible without the support of E3G, especially Ignacio Arroniz Velasco and Lisa Fischer. And finally, we would like to thank all the industry expert respondents who completed the survey, especially those that went the extra mile to speak to us virtually for follow-up questions. Thank you so much | - |
