Imagine trying to get a bank loan for a project that protects a city from floods, but the bank doesn't see how they'll get their money back. This project creates a 'financial blueprint' that proves these green projects can actually make a profit. It's like a matchmaking service that connects city planners with investors by using data to lower the perceived risk.
Climate adaptation projects often lack a clear return on investment, making them unattractive to private banks and investors. This creates a funding gap for essential environmental protection infrastructure.
A marketplace for bankable climate solutions and a set of risk assessment and ESG reporting tools for investors.
If you are an ESG Investment Fund dealing with a lack of low-risk green assets — this project developed risk assessment and reporting tools that make climate adaptation projects easier to include in portfolios.
If you are a Municipal Infrastructure Department dealing with budget gaps for flood or heat defenses — this project developed a 'bankable-by-design' method that helps you create projects with a positive ROI to attract private cash.
If you are a Climate Adaptation Consultancy dealing with clients who can't find funding — this project developed a marketplace of best-practice solutions that can be replicated and monetized.
Based on available project data, the project is currently devising and validating models for the monetization of the marketplace services.
The project aims to facilitate the replication and wider use of solutions through a marketplace, though specific scaling metrics are not yet provided.
Based on available project data, the project focuses on creating a marketplace and ecosystem for the exploitation of results, but specific licensing terms are not listed.
CLIMINVEST provides specific ESG reporting tools designed to lower barriers for investors engaging in climate adaptation projects.
