If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

As stated by the AIIB, the project development objective is to contribute to the Republic of Turkiye's climate mitigation and adaptation goals in line with the Paris Climate Agreement.

A sovereign-backed multi-sector facility (the Phase 2 Facility) in favor of the Borrower to support Turkiye's climate mitigation and adaptation commitments under the recently ratified Paris Climate Agreement (Oct. 2021). Proceeds from the Phase 2 Facility will be on-lent in the form of Sub-loans to eligible private sector entities (the Sub-borrowers) to finance eligible climate mitigation (CM), climate adaptation (CA) and climate industry (CI) projects in Turkiye's energy, infrastructure, and other productive sectors (the Sub-projects).

The proposed Phase 2 Facility is a follow-up to the project P000132 TSKB Sustainable Energy and Infrastructure On-lending Facility (the Phase 1 Facility) which reached loan closing on April 1, 2022. The Project Closing Note was submitted to the Board on Sep. 26, 2022.

The Bank may co-finance alongside TSKB selected non-sovereign-backed Sub-projects under the Phase 2 Facility on a case-by-case basis.

The ivestment is guaranteed by the Government of Turkiye.
