You could look up IFC, a World bank affiliate, which has REEEF (Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Fund) devoted to encouraging Ren energy projects under the Global Environment Facility. http://www2.ifc.org/proserv/apply/application/application.html You could also approach Rabo Bank International which recently signed an agreement with the Dutch government to contract 10 million tonne of GHG emission reductions from sustainable energy projects in developing countries over a 2-year period. The credits are to be delivered over a 10-year period.
