Innovate4Climate is the preeminent global event on climate finance, climate investment and climate markets. It is a platform that brings together business, finance, policy and technology leaders to accelerate action on financing climate-smart development.

The Webinars for Climate Innovation Series will be a monthly series providing an opportunity for thought-leaders from the public and private sector to present and engage in meaningful discussions about their innovative ideas, solutions initiatives. I4C presents these webinar series to provide a platform for knowledge exchange on innovations, best practices, and opportunities and to highlight I4C community’s work accelerating climate action.

About the Webinar

The deployment of low-carbon technologies such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) will be crucial to decarbonise industry and in the transition to a net-zero economy. To scale-up the deployment of climate mitigation technologies like CCS, there is a pressing need to understand how to mobilise capital and investment at scale and make such technologies and projects more attractive to investors and financial institutions.

This webinar, co-hosted by the Global CCS Institute and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), will provide an overview of the landscape of CCS projects globally and identify opportunities to accelerate its deployment to secure a sustainable stream of finance for future projects. It will also explore business models for CCS and the policies needed to unlock investment and support deployment.
