About Clean Energy Finance Corporation

The CEFC is Australia’s specialist climate investor, helping cut emissions in the race towards net zero by 2050. We invest in the latest technologies to generate, store, manage and transmit clean energy. Our discounted asset finance programs help put more Australians on the path to sustainability, in their homes and on the road. CEFC capital is also backing the net zero transformation of our natural capital, infrastructure, property and resources sectors, while providing critical capital for the emerging climate tech businesses of tomorrow. With access to more than $33 billion from the Australian Government, the CEFC invests with commercial rigour and is governed by an independent board. ▪ What does the CEFC invest in? We can make investments which are solely or mainly Australian-based and which feature renewable energy, energy efficiency and/or low emissions technologies. Our investments in large-scale projects and funds are generally from $20 million and above and usually include capital from co-investors. We also provide discounted finance for smaller-scale asset finance projects via our co-financiers. These are usually from $10,000 to $5 million. Our specialist Household Energy Upgrades Fund is focused on sustainable housing. We do not invest in carbon capture and storage, nuclear technology or nuclear power and do not make grants.
