Rural Electrification: Blended Finance Showcase

How can Pacific countries move from pilot projects to investment at scale? Join Fiji's Minister for Public Works, the UK's Special Representative for Climate, the World Bank and UNDP for a practical discussion on expanding clean energy access and rural connectivity across the Pacific. Through examples including World Bank ESMAP initiatives and Fiji's Rural Electrification Fund, speakers will explore how innovative financing models, public-private partnerships and stronger project pipelines can unlock resilient energy solutions.Participants will also be invited to express interest in a follow-on workshop in Suva after COP31 focused on moving beyond public finance, to private, blended and innovative partnerships.
