CAMCO announces the signing of a USD 50m funded activity agreement between Camco and the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
It is the first time CAMCO has signed such an agreement with the GCF since becoming an Accredited Entity in 2021 and comes almost a year to the day since the GCF Board approved USD 50m for their REPP 2 fund.
This latest development means that the GCF is now in a formal position to participate in the imminent first close of REPP 2, keeping CAMCO's plans on track to achieve the milestone later this year.
The GCF’s investment in REPP 2 will be a cornerstone of the fund’s blended finance structure, which is designed to leverage public and commercial funding to invest in decentralised renewable energy projects in Sub-Saharan African countries. Once launched, REPP 2’s aim will be to deliver significant climate, economic and gender impacts while ensuring sustainable returns for investors.
