In 2021, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) launched its first investment in infrastructure asset-backed securities (IABS), intended to support “low-carbon and climate-resilient” infrastructure projects. 5 years later, are these instruments helping the renewable energy transition? 🧵

The first ever global conference on transitioning away from fossil fuels, in Santa Marta, Colombia was a historic moment of unprecedented hope and focus. It signals that political processes are now playing catch up with the reality of a transition already well underway.
Quote card on a light green background with wavy orange and green decorative lines. The Jubilee Australia Research Centre logo appears in the top right corner. In large dark green bold italic text, the card reads: "Unlike annual climate talks, which fixate on closed-door negotiations and written text – the atmosphere at Santa Marta was solutions-focused and evidenced based. The first thing that was striking as the week kicked off was the sheer amount of evidence that the transition is well underway." A dark green footer bar reads: "On the blog: At Santa Marta: Catching up to the reality of the fossil fuel phase out."
