The GCF Secretariat report for 2026 details progress in enhancing country ownership, delivering impact, and institutional strengthening. Key achievements include the launch of a revised Accreditation Framework, the establishment of regional presence in five locations, and the development of a new Commitment Authority Framework to optimize investment capacity. The report also tracks programming metrics, noting 29 funding proposals submitted to the iTAP and the approval of projects for underserved countries like Bahamas, Chad, and Jamaica.

The document outlines five key strategies to make Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) projects more investable, focusing on risk-sharing through corporate commitments, the use of take-or-pay contracts to attract lenders, and the implementation of robust 'Book and Claim' systems for tracking Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs). It emphasizes the need for cashflow stability for both physical fuel and EACs, and argues that projects delivering higher carbon intensity reductions should be able to capture the value of their innovation through tradability.
