Transforming India's Climate Finance through Sector-Specific Financial Institutions
India’s transition to a sustainable energy future relies on institutions like Power Finance Corporation (PFC) and REC Limited. As per CPI’s Landscape of Green Finance in India, the country needs INR 162.5 trillion ($2.5 trillion) by 2030 for its climate goals, yet current finance flows cover only a third of this. PFC and REC can bridge this gap by financing green technologies, infrastructure, and transition projects in hard-to-abate sectors. By diversifying portfolios, leveraging green bonds, and aligning with global climate funds, these institutions can drive India’s low-carbon transition while mitigating risks like stranded assets and evolving energy demands.
