Members of the Clean Energy Transition Partnership have cut international public finance for fossil fuels by up to 80% since 2019–2021, but have redirected less than half of these funds to clean energy, with most clean energy finance going to advanced economies rather than emerging ones.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech, and 1 source has reported it.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

This shift in public finance reveals a new playing field where you can target the big gaps left by incomplete clean energy funding, especially for emerging markets. Watch export credit agencies closely; closing their fossil fuel support loopholes creates a rare opening for redirecting billions to clean tech.
