Energy Transition and Geoeconomic Fragmentation: Implication for Climate Scenario

Resource Description

This resource synthesizes findings from climate finance assessments in 19 African countries, highlighting investment priorities, challenges, and enabling conditions to scale climate finance across the continent.

Why This Matters

Understanding country-level climate finance needs helps development partners and governments unlock investment and support climate-resilient, low-carbon growth pathways.

Key Insights

  • Countries identify mitigation and adaptation priorities across sectors such as energy, agriculture, and transport
  • Adaptation is often underfunded, despite high vulnerability
  • Public finance plays a central role, but mobilizing private and concessional capital remains a key challenge
  • Common barriers include limited project pipelines, institutional capacity gaps, and misalignment between plans and financing strategies
  • Recommends stronger national planning, improved collaboration, and greater use of blended finance mechanisms
