Webinar: Understanding green finance mechanisms and options for South Africa’s decarbonisation and just energy transition

Sustainable and affordable financing is key to accelerating South Africa’s decarbonisation and just transition efforts. However, many stakeholders still find the concepts and details surrounding green finance obscure, unclear, and intimidating. This webinar will unpack fundamental concepts such as just energy transition, carbon budgets, national determined contributions, sectoral emission targets, carbon border adjustment mechanisms and international renewable energy certificates, to name a few.

The webinar will highlight Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, which introduces new carbon market mechanisms, and the Mitigation Activity Design Documents (MADDs), which pave the way for accessing international funding. The session will also explore decarbonisation currencies—including carbon credits and International Renewable Energy Certificates—to clarify how businesses can leverage these instruments.

Join this online discussion to get practical insights and explore diverse funding mechanisms for South Africa’s just energy transition.
