據油氣新聞網站3月9日消息 國際可再生能源署（Irena）表示，去年9月聯合國氣候行動峰會期間，政府間伙伴聯盟發起的一項里程碑式的倡議目前已進入實施階段。

Irena對氣候投資平臺的貢獻是根據國家動員低碳、氣候適應性投資的需要而開發，目前正在邀請可再生能源項目開發商通過一個圍繞14個區域集群組織的專門建設的門戶網站注冊合適的項目。

在宣布這一決定之前，金融機構、多邊開發銀行和開發機構的登記工作已在倡議發起期間開始。Irena的聲明稱，金融合作伙伴加入這一倡議的機會仍然是開放的。

Irena與其合作伙伴SEforAll、開發計劃署和綠色氣候基金合作，啟動了氣候投資平臺，以幫助增加流向發展中國家的資本，并擴大可再生能源項目的開發。

聲明稱，自那以來，一些對推進發展中國家能源轉型興趣日益濃厚的金融機構已注冊為該倡議的合作伙伴。

Irena總干事Francesco La Camera說：“為加速全球能源向氣候和可持續發展目標的轉變釋放所需的資金被公認為是成功的關鍵。”

他說：“加速能源轉型所需的資金是可用的，而且可以越來越多地引導到適當的、高影響的、有希望的項目機會中。”

La Camera 表示：“隨著Irena采取更加注重行動的方法，幫助發展中國家獲得實現其可再生能源目標所需的資金，同時支持積極的社會和經濟成果是一個明確的優先事項。”

他還說：“由于平臺背后已經有許多強有力的合作伙伴，現在邀請投資者、政府和項目支持者加入，并提出相關的低碳能源計劃和投資機會。”

根據Irena的說法，這些投資論壇將圍繞14個區域集群組織，以便根據各國的具體需要調整活動。

Irena seeks big renewable energy project investments

The International Renewable Energy Agency’s (Irena) said a landmark initiative launched by a coalition of intergovernmental partners during the UN Climate Action Summit in September last year has now entered its operational phase.

Irena's contribution to the Climate Investment Platform, developed in response to country needs to mobilise low-carbon, climate-resilient investments, is now inviting renewable energy project developers to register suitable projects via a purpose-built portal organised around 14 regional clusters.

The announcement follows the opening of registrations for financial institutions, multilateral development banks and development agencies which took place during the launch of the initiative. Opportunities for financial partners to join the initiative remains open, said the statement from Irena.

Together with its partners, SEforAll, UNDP and in collaboration with Green Climate Fund, Irena had launched the Climate Investment Platform to help increase the flow of capital to developing countries and scale up renewable energy project development.

Since then, a number of financial institutions with growing interest in advancing the energy transformation in developing countries have registered as partners of the initiative, said the statement.

"Unlocking the finance needed to accelerate the global energy transformation towards climate and sustainable development goals is well recognised as being key to success," remarked Francesco La Camera, the Irena Director-General.

"The capital needed to accelerate the energy transformation is available and can be increasingly channelled into appropriate, high-impact, promising project opportunities," he stated.

"As the agency adopts a more action-oriented approach, helping developing countries access the finance needed to realise their renewable energy goals, whilst supporting positive social and economic outcomes is a clear priority," observed La Camera.

"With a number of strong partners behind the platform already, investors, governments and project proponents are now invited to join and present relevant low-carbon energy plans and investment opportunities," he added.

According to Irena, these investment forums will be organised around 14 regional clusters allowing activities to be adjusted to the specific needs of countries.
