Main investment barriers for renewable energy
1. Lack of bankable project pipeline – financiers and lenders find it
difficult to identify investment-mature renewable energy projects
2. High perceived risk and financing costs – high cost of capital is
driven by investors’ high perception of political, counterparty and
currency risk
3. Small deal sizes – renewable energy investments may be too
small for large-scale (e.g. institutional) investors

process for solar PV projects.
▪ Global Renewable Energy Guarantee
scheme: – concept for a one-stop-shop to
offer guarantee instruments for RE projects,
piloting solar PV.
