GCF helps drive green energy transition in Mongolia

“I hope the Sumber power plant will help create a leading role for #Mongolia in an emerging “super grid” of #renewableenergy across the Asian region, linking China, Japan, & South Korea.” — ESB Solar Energy Director Khurelbaatar #ClimateAction #PrivateSectorpic.twitter.com/FUpy8Ea1dh

“Our investment in this solar plant wouldn’t have been possible without concessional loans from GCF via @XacBank” — Sankou Seiki Managing Director Norimasa Shimizu #ClimateAction #privatesectorpic.twitter.com/LJVNnBQiT1
