WASHINGTON, DC — The governing board of the Climate Investment Funds (CIF) has endorsed two wide-ranging investment plans to transform the energy systems of Costa Rica and Fiji and help enable each country''s grid system to absorb and channel more clean power.

CIF''s Renewable Energy Integration (CIF REI) investment program is the only multilateral platform specially designed to help developing countries prepare their national power systems for rapid and scaled adoption of renewables azil and Colombia''s investment plans were approved earlier this year as part of CIF REI. As more variable renewable energy comes online globally, finance is needed to help energy systems prepare for its rapid uptake. It is estimated that infrastructure investments will need to ramp up to $820 billion annually by 2030 to facilitate the decarbonization of power systems.

Endorsed by the G7 in 2021, CIF REI is supported by financial pledges from the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Building on CIF''s nearly 15-year track record in climate finance mobilization, CIF REI supports grid flexibility measures on both the supply and demand side in four key ways: scaling up renewable energy enabling technologies, enhancing readiness of energy infrastructure for renewables, supporting innovative business models, and improving power system and market design and operations. Approximately 60 developing countries—one-third of the world''s nations—have applied for CIF REI funding.

"Collectively, these two investment plans tell a larger story: developing countries recognize the need to accelerate renewables, and ensure these energy sources plug seamlessly into flexible, cost-efficient, and resilient energy systems. These goals go hand-in-hand, and that is why CIF launched the Renewable Energy Integration (REI) program. We are proud to support Costa Rica and Fiji with their historic ambitions, and look forward to helping each country achieve their climate goals."

"Costa Rica recognizes the extraordinary opportunity we have in this moment —to decarbonize and electrify our economy, and accelerate a just energy transition that supports all of our communities. This investment plan will help lead that transformation: electrifying public transport, industry, improving and integrating our energy grids, and bringing together the public and private sector on this critical work. We are thrilled by theClimateInvestment Funds governing body''s decision today."

"The Government of Fiji extends its gratitude to its MDB partners—Asian Development Bank (ADB), the World Bank, International Finance Corporation (IFC)—in supporting Fiji in its preparation of the Renewable Energy Integration Investment Plan. On behalf of the Government of Fiji, I would like to thank the Climate Investment Funds (CIF) and its GCAP Committee Members in endorsing our Investment Plan, which aims at achieving Fiji''s long-term strategy on climate action and renewable energy integration."

Marcelino Madrigal, Energy Division Chief, IDB:

"The IDB Group is thrilled to continue working with the Government of Costa Rica in coordination with the World Bank Group on its new phase of energy transition. The CIF-REI financial resources will be instrumental in advancing the decarbonization of the economy through greater private sector participation."

Elizabeth Martínez de Marcano, Regional Director for Colombia, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, IFC:

"IFC welcomes CIF''s endorsement of Costa Rica''s investment plan, a significant milestone in the country''s journey towards a more inclusive, resilient and just economy. Our proposal, crafted in collaboration with the Government of Costa Rica, the IDB Group and the World Bank, aims to accelerate the clean energy transition, fostering a future where the private sector plays a pivotal role in advancing environmental sustainability and economic growth."

El programa de Renewable Energy Integration (CIF REI) de CIF es la única plataforma multilateral especialmente diseñada para ayudar a los países en desarrollo a preparar sus sistemas energéticos nacionales para una adopción rápida y escalada de energías renovables. Los planes de inversión de Brasil y Colombia fueron aprobados a principios de este año como parte del CIF REI. A medida que más energías renovables variables entran en funcionamiento en todo el mundo, se necesita financiación para ayudar a los sistemas energéticos a prepararse para su rápida adopción. Se estima que las inversiones en infraestructura deberán aumentar hasta 820 mil millones de dólares anuales para 2030 para facilitar la descarbonización de los sistemas energéticos.

Respaldado por el G7 en 2021, CIF REI cuenta con el respaldo de promesas financieras de los Países Bajos, Suiza y el Reino Unido. Aprovechando el historial de casi 15 años de CIF en la movilización de financiamiento climático, CIF REI apoya medidas de flexibilidad de la red tanto del lado de la oferta como de la demanda de cuatro maneras clave: aumentando las tecnologías que permiten la energía renovable, mejorando la preparación de la infraestructura energética para las energías renovables, apoyando negocios innovadores y mejorando el diseño y las operaciones del sistema eléctrico y del mercado. Aproximadamente 60 países en desarrollo (un tercio de las naciones del mundo) han solicitado financiamiento CIF REI.

Luis Tineo – CEO Interino, Climate Investment Funds:"En conjunto, estos dos planes de inversión cuentan una historia más amplia: los países en desarrollo reconocen la necesidad de acelerar las energías renovables y garantizar que estas fuentes de energía se conecten perfectamente a sistemas energéticos flexibles, rentables y resilientes. Estos objetivos van de la mano y es por eso que CIF lanzó el programa de Renewable Energy Integration (REI). Estamos orgullosos de apoyar a Costa Rica y Fiji con sus ambiciones históricas y esperamos ayudar a cada país a alcanzar sus objetivos climáticos".

Ronny Rodríguez, Viceministro de Energía, Costa Rica:"Costa Rica reconoce la extraordinaria oportunidad que tenemos en este momento: descarbonizar y electrificar nuestra economía y acelerar una transición energética justa que apoye a todas nuestras comunidades. Este plan de inversión ayudará a liderar esa transformación: electrificar el transporte público, la industria, mejorar e integrar nuestras redes energéticas y reunir al sector público y privado en este trabajo crítico. Estamos encantados con la decisión de hoy del órgano rector de Climate Investment Funds".

Kamal Krishnan Gounder, Jefe de la Oficina de Planificación Estratégica, Fiji:"El Gobierno de Fiji extiende su agradecimiento a sus socios BMD –el Banco Asiático de Desarrollo (BAD), el Banco Mundial y la Corporación Financiera Internacional (CFI)– por apoyar a Fiji en la preparación del plan de inversiones de Renewable Energy Integration. En nombre del Gobierno de Fiji, me gustaría agradecer a Climate Investment Funds (CIF) y a los miembros del Comité GCAP por respaldar nuestro plan de inversión, que tiene como objetivo lograr la estrategia a largo plazo de Fiji sobre acción climática e integración de energías renovables".

Chandrasekar Govindarajalu, Director de Prácticas Interino, ESMAP, Banco Mundial:"La transición energética de combustibles contaminantes a fuentes de energía renovables no sólo es crítica desde la perspectiva del cambio climático. El uso de fuentes de energía renovables, como la solar, para llevar electricidad a las comunidades rurales de países como Costa Rica y Fiji también es considerablemente más barato, lo que libera recursos públicos limitados para gastarlos en otras prioridades de desarrollo. Damos la bienvenida al apoyo de CIF a los países bajo su programa de integración de energías renovables".

Marcelino Madrigal, Jefe de la División de Energía, BID:"El Grupo BID está encantado de seguir trabajando con el Gobierno de Costa Rica en coordinación con el Grupo del Banco Mundial en su nueva fase de transición energética. Los recursos financieros del CIF-REI serán fundamentales para avanzar en la descarbonización de la economía a través de una mayor participación del sector privado".

Elizabeth Martínez de Marcano, Directora Regional para Colombia, México, Centroamérica y el Caribe, CFI:"La CFI acoge con agrado el respaldo de CIF al plan de inversiones de Costa Rica, un hito importante en el camino del país hacia una economía más inclusiva, resiliente y justa. Nuestra propuesta, elaborada en colaboración con el Gobierno de Costa Rica, el Grupo BID y el Banco Mundial, tiene como objetivo acelerar la transición a la energía limpia, fomentando un futuro en el que el sector privado desempeñe un papel fundamental en el avance de la sostenibilidad ambiental y el crecimiento económico".
