IFC’s Work in Infrastructure
Sustainable infrastructure is critical for addressing developmental challenges in emerging markets.
IFC offers long-term financing and industry-leading expertise to develop infrastructure projects that provide essential services—including electricity, telecommunications, transportation, water & and sanitation—in partnership with the private sector.
As part of the World Bank Group, we also work with governments and development partners to create a business environment that attracts private capital to infrastructure sectors.
Electric Vehicles—a Climate-Smart Solution
By 2040, over half of all passenger vehicles sold will be electric. The massive adoption of electric vehicles has the potential to redefine urban transportation and energy usage by lowering climate impact, increasing safety and expanding access to services for a broad spectrum of the population.
