But let’s be honest here. If we are going to move the dial on carbon emissions, the real focus moving forward can’t be on incrementally adding a few extra gigawatts of UK solar or wind output – valuable though that is – but on curbing emissions in fast-growing India, China and the wider ASEAN region (including the Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam).

In an unusual move, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) said it would invest up to £25m in the launch as part of its efforts to encourage asset managers to support environmental investments in developing countries.

UK retail investors will be invited to join the fundraising alongside the government and other backers, via investment platforms, ThomasLloyd said.

The move, announced by the government during COP26 in Glasgow, comes after chancellor Rishi Sunak laid out his ambition for the UK as a centre of green finance, calling for financial firms to “mobilise private finance quickly and at scale”.
