The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is an inter-governmental organisation mandated with the widespread and increased adoption and sustainable use of all forms of renewable energy. At present, IRENA has 169 Members (168 States and the European Union) that acceded to its Statute, and 15 additional States in the process of accession. IRENA supports countries in their transition to a sustainable energy future and serves as the principal platform for international cooperation, a centre of excellence, and a repository of policy, technology, resource, and financial knowledge on renewable energy. The Agency implements its mandate with the view of sustainable development, increased energy security, and low-carbon economic growth and prosperity.
The Project Facilitation and Support (PFS) division integrates all the previous initiatives of IRENA related to project facilitation. It has an ambitious goal to achieve a tangible impact by facilitating funding and investments for promising projects, co-organising regional Investment Forums with matchmaking events, and fostering cooperation between international institutions that have compatible objectives.
The core of the PFS modus-operandi is to facilitate and support IRENA Member States to achieve their Nationally Determined Contribution renewable energy targets by building a solid pipeline of projects covering the entire project size spectrum from utility scale projects, to commercial and industrial level, and micro & small level projects, as well as energy efficiency measures. This includes facilitating their realization through a comprehensive set of operational tools including – but not limited to – project-based technical assistance packages, targeted de-risking instruments and structured capacity building.
One of the earliest initiatives managed by the division is the IRENA Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) Facility. The IRENA/ADFD facility aimed to facilitate concessional co-financing loans from ADFD, for the implementation of renewable energy projects in developing countries. IRENA was responsible for project selection and recommendation to ADFD for final selection and funding. The joint IRENA/ADFD Project Facility (the Facility) is the result of these commitments and represents a unique partnership between IRENA and ADFD. In January 2020, the seven selection cycles of the IRENA/ADFD Project Facility concluded, with ADFD making funding available for 26 projects. Today, six projects reached completion and one project is close to Commercial Operation Date (COD).
The division also hosts the Climate Investment Platform (CIP), as well as the Energy Transition Accelerator Finance (ETAF) Platform. Both CIP and ETAF are inclusive, multi-stakeholder climate finance platforms, which pursue facilitating capital mobilisation to scale up the development of renewable energy projects to advance the energy transition across developing markets.
