The Department of Energy cordially invites members of the media to the departmental side events scheduled as part of the COP17 Side events: Financing climate actions in Africa, an instrument and policy framework.
Green financing is emerging as a key lever to stimulate sustainable global economies in Africa. The desire by African countries to diversify their economies and protect their environments is sparking investments in innovative projects, financial institutions, venture capitalists, investors and traditional non-businesses are putting money into clean – renewable energy.
