International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private lending arm of the World Bank, and Gujarat Energy Research and Management Institute (GERMI) have teamed up to identify and develop renewable-energy projects in South Asia.

IFC is working with Gujarat Energy Research and Management Institute to design and structure a distributed-rooftop solar-power project in Gandhinagar. The project, a 5MW solar installation, is expected to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by about 6,000 tonne a year and mobilize about USD 20 million in private sector investment.
