Over the past century, India’s average temperature has increased by around 0.7°C, largely due to climate change. By the end of the twenty-first century, temperatures are projected to rise by approximately 2.4°C to 4.7°C – setting a major challenge for India.

This programme is India’s first of its kind climate-focused fund. It will invest in low-carbon and climate-resilient platforms across the energy value chain. This includes renewable energy generation, energy efficient technologies, low carbon transport and resource conservation, including water and waste management. The programme provides equity and grants to accelerate the uptake of Indian green infrastructure projects.
