Sustainable Energy Investing and Financing Activation (SEIFA)
Sustainable Energy Investing and Financing Activation (SEIFA) project was created in 2021 to invest 500M euros in sustainable energy facilities. In 12 countries of the CEE region*, it now plans on opening the pipeline of investable projects into renewable energy and industrial decarbonisation.
Growing industrial and energy sectors will create a significant upside in bringing foreign investments to individual regions. Moreover, it will help to overcome the gap in the sector to reach an environmentally and socially sustainable economic system, boosting the transition to a low-carbon and resource-efficient industrial sector.
The created platform will greatly increase the attractiveness to sustainable energy investing across Europe and beyond, for both - investable projects and investors.
Main benefits of the SEIFA project
Experienced service providers in each Sustainable Energy Investment Fund (SEIF) covered country will add significant value to the investable projects. Throughout their lifetime, they will be periodically evaluated in terms of their development goals and sustainability targets.
Also, the initiative will support investees in the transition towards a low- carbon economy and implementation of more sustainable environmental, social and governance practices. This is done via quarterly due diligence and sustainability assessments within the provided toolkit. The fund performs continuous performance valuation and goals reporting, which helps with the development of sustainable transition and operational value creation plans.
SEIF investment allows at least 200 GWh/year of primary energy savings generating a 200,000 tCO2-eq/year reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, no less than 2500 GWh/year with at least 2,500,000 tCO2-eq/year emission reduction within 5 years after the project’s end.
Call for companies to take advantage of the SEIFA initiative
The project team actively encourages companies engaged in renewable energy and sustainable production sectors to contact the SEIFA project partners for additional info. We are happy to prepare the value proposition and potential investment.

SEIFA project in a nutshell:
https://pedal-consulting.eu/sustainable-energy-investing-and-financing-activation-seifa/
Sustainable Energy Investing and Financing Activation (SEIFA) project was created in 2021 to invest 500M euros in sustainable energy facilities.
In December, the first Sustainable Energy Investing and Financing Activation (SEIFA) Advisory Board Meeting was held online, hosted by PEDAL Consulting as the project coordinator.
Investing in Europe's sustainable transition offers immense potential to capitalise on emerging opportunities and reap the benefits of a socially and environmentally conscious approach.
The EUSEW was truly exciting for the SEIFA team, as we had the opportunity to forge new collaborations with interesting stakeholders and discuss SEIFA's progress and impact.
Together with the SEIFA project partners, we established an extensive network of experienced and dedicated local experts to provide the highest quality services to our clients.
Due to the current European security situation, the necessity for energy security is evident more than ever. Urgent efforts are needed to replace fossil fuels.
Sustainability and the transition to a low-carbon, more resource-efficient, and circular economy are key in the long-term competitiveness of the EU economy.
Public investments alone are not sufficient to undertake this massive challenge and private investments will play a key role in the sustainable transition.
The SEIFA project’s main objective is to establish an Investment Fund that will invest with a focus on sustainable energy companies and industrial companies.
