Financing energy efficient projects is a recent initiative of IDCOL. IDCOL has already adopted schemes for financing energy efficient equipment,green building and manufacturing of energy efficient appliances. IDCOL also finances environment friendly Auto Brick projects and Improved Cook Stove (ICS).

IDCOL has already developed significant in-house capacity on the technology and financing of energy efficient brick kilns within the Industrial and Energy Efficiency Unit. IDCOL is also enlisted as a Participating Financial Institution (PFI) under Sustainable Finance Department (SFD) of Bangladesh Bank. A full-fledged team under the Household Energy Unit of the Renewable Energy Department looks after countrywide dissemination of the ICS Program.
