Between 1990 and 2007, the World Bank Group has committed approximately $ 11.4bn to clean energy. From this, renewable energy and energy efficiency again each received $ 3.1bn, while $ 5.2bn was for hydropower projects with a capacity exceeding 10 MW per facility.
Energy renewable and energy efficiency projects will continue to firmly believe in the portfolio of the World Bank Group and energy are increasingly integrating in energy loans World Bank Group. In fiscal 2007 a total of $ 1.43bn supported 63 projects in renewable energy and energy efficiency in 32 countries. This represents a scale 67 per cent-in commitments in fiscal 2006. Support from the World Bank Group can be divided into $ 421M for new renewable energy, $ 751m for hydropower over 10 MW, and $ 262m for energy efficiency. Since 2001, clean energy loans from the World Bank Group has increased considerably.
The average share of "clean" (eg solar, wind, clean coal) energy of total energy investment (including the standard fossil fuel has doubled since 1990-94 to 25 percent in 2005-07 and reached 40 percent in fiscal year 2007 (World Bank fiscal year ends From June 30).

ICSID addition, each plays a role in investment in clean energy.
Sub-Saharan Africa received U.S. $ 735m in renewable energy and energy efficiency commitments for 12 projects, accounting for 51 percent of total lending for clean energy. Most of these commitments was allocated to large hydro projects, followed by investments in energy efficiency improvements. Eleven projects were developed in South Asia, which accounted for $ 183 million in funding goes mainly to the new renewable energy. In East Asia and Pacific, Latin America and the Middle East and North Africa, WBG activities also focused mainly on new renewable energy. In contrast, activities in Europe and Central Asia have focused primarily on improving energy efficiency, which attracted $ 97m in commitments.
