Solomon Islands' Advisor

Miklos Szekely

Miklos Szekely

Miklos is a seasoned Energy and Climate Policy Expert specializing in the strategic design and management of high-impact projects across the energy, climate, renewables, and environmental finance sectors. His core focus is on translating complex regulatory frameworks into executable, financially viable project plans.

As a Program Officer at the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) since 2017, Miklos ensures programs are both environmentally sound and financially viable. He currently leads the coordination of the ENERGATE project, an EU-funded initiative developing an AI-enabled platform to accelerate energy efficiency investments in the European building sector. Miklos previously played a pivotal role in establishing the Western Balkan Green Fund (WBGF) and coordinated the development of Hungary’s Long-term Low-Emission Development Strategy (National Clean Development Strategy 2050).

With an educational background in environmental economics (MSc, Cranfield University), his career highlights include chairing the EU Expert Group on climate flexibility mechanisms during the Hungarian EU Presidency, earning him experience in both national and international climate governance.

“[CFAN's] primary draw is the chance to translate complex global climate commitments into bankable, on-the-ground projects. I spent years structuring finance in Europe, but the CFAN role offers me to assist Small Island Developing States. I wanted to apply my skills to bridge the climate finance gap and ensure these vulnerable island nations can access and absorb the funding they need.”
