Delegates at the Bloomberg New Energy Finance Summit in New York this week voted for ideas (known as "interventions") that aim respectively to establish new financing options for households taking advantage of solar and energy efficiency; at offering solar lease financing in emerging economies; at easy credit checking for renewable energy securitisation; and at carbon scoring for green bonds. The winning interventions were among 52 ideas submitted to FiRe this year, and have the potential to scale up the financing of clean energy and climate solutions by at least an additional $1bn within the first three years. Several of the winning ideas (see list below) aim to achieve global scope, but their initial geographic coverage includes US, EU, China, Caribbean, India, Asia Pacific and Haiti. Michael Liebreich, chairman of FiRe and of the advisory board of Bloomberg New Energy Finance, said: "It's thrilling to see how FiRe is building momentum. At the Summit this week, some of last year's winners reported back on the progress they have made, and how winning FiRe helped. It was very inspiring. This year we had more than twice as many entries, and the quality was great. I'm looking forward to working with our four 2015 winners and want to thank everyone who has lent their support. FiRe truly is crowdsourcing at its most powerful!" The audience at the BNEF Summit on 13-15 April, made up of leaders from the energy industry, finance, corporations and government, joined informal gatherings around each winner to ask questions and learn about the opportunities for getting involved in the four interventions. The FiRe team will support the implementation of the four winning proposals, monitor their progress and measure their results. Hilary McMahon, director of research at Carbon War Room and a member of the FiRe challenge panel, commented: "The participants took the attendees on a journey from the genesis of the idea, to the positive impact that the idea could have and the strategy for getting there. The winning projects therefore represent opportunities for investment that we can all get excited about."
