The India Innovation Lab for Green Finance is a new public-private initiative that identifies, develops, and accelerates innovative solutions to finance green infrastructure for renewable energy (including utility scale, distributed, and off-grid), energy efficiency, urbanization, and other channels for green growth. It is a unique initiative that aims to provide concrete solutions to the unique financing challenges to investment in green infrastructure in India. By addressing investors’ needs, it can unlock new investment for clean growth in India.

Since its launch on November 12, the India Lab has received the endorsement of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, and was supported in a joint announcement on energy and climate by India Prime Minister Narendra Modi and UK Prime Minister David Cameron, during Prime Minister Modi’s recent visit to the UK. The India Lab is represented by 14 institutions from government, finance, renewable energy, and infrastructure, who serve as Lab Members.

Now, The India Innovation Lab for Green Finance is seeking proposals for innovative financial instruments that have potential to manage barriers and scale up investment for green growth in India. Up to four winning ideas will receive advice and endorsement from expert Lab Members to develop and implement the ideas over the course of the next year.

In this webinar on December 18, Gireesh Shrimali introduces the goals and process of the India Innovation Lab for Green Finance, and shares how to submit ideas and the India Lab’s selection criteria.
