Unleashing large-scale deployment of next-generation technologies requires innovative ways to channel capital to novel energy projects. EFI Foundation develops practical tools and finance solutions, including an integrated carbon accounting framework and risk- reduction strategies, to help clean energy initiatives go from concept to project. Through the Energy Futures Finance Forum (EF3), we bridge the gap between innovators and capital owners, turning finance tools into actionable market strategies. By increasing transparency and reducing financial uncertainties, we help catalyze investment in low-carbon projects.
