商品描述
This handbook deals with various financial instruments, policies, and strategies in a policy-oriented approach for financing green energy projects. Recently, global investment in renewables and energy efficiency has declined, and there is a risk that it will slow further, Clearly, fossil fuels still dominate energy investments. This trend could threaten the expansion of green energy needed to meet energy security, climate, and clean-air goals. Several developed and developing economies are still following pro-coal energy policies. The extra CO2 generated from new coal-fired power plants could more than eliminate any reductions in emissions made by other nations.
Finance is the engine of development of infrastructural projects, including energy projects. By providing several thematic and country chapters, this handbook explains that if we plan to achieve sustainable development goals, we need to create opportunities for new green projects and scale up the financing of investments that furnish environmental benefits. New financial instruments and policies such as green bonds, green banks, carbon market instruments, fiscal policy, green central banking, fintech, and community-based green funds are among the chief components that make up green finance.

Wing Thye Woo is Professor of Economics, U.C. Davis. Farhad Taghizadeh-Hesary is Assistant Professor, Waseda University.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本手冊以政策導向的方式探討各種金融工具、政策和策略,以資助綠色能源項目。最近,全球對可再生能源和能源效率的投資有所下降,並且有進一步放緩的風險。顯然,化石燃料仍然主導能源投資。這一趨勢可能威脅到滿足能源安全、氣候和清潔空氣目標所需的綠色能源擴展。一些發達和發展中經濟體仍在遵循支持煤炭的能源政策。新建煤電廠所產生的額外二氧化碳可能會超過其他國家所減少的排放量。
金融是基礎設施項目(包括能源項目)發展的引擎。通過提供幾個主題和國家章節,本手冊解釋了如果我們計劃實現可持續發展目標,就需要為新的綠色項目創造機會,並擴大提供環境效益的投資融資。綠色金融的主要組成部分包括綠色債券、綠色銀行、碳市場工具、財政政策、綠色中央銀行、金融科技以及基於社區的綠色基金等新金融工具和政策。
