This　study　investigates　the　effect　of　green-bond　financing　on　energy　efficiency　in-vestment　for　green　economic　recovery.　The　fuzzy　Analytic　Hierarchy　Process　(AHP)　technique　was　used　to　achieve　the　research　objective.　The　study＇s　findings　showed　that　green　bonds　are　currently　the　primary　financing　source　for　energy　efficiency　projects,　enhancing　economic　growth　by　4.9%　and　potentially　increasing　green　economic　recovery　by　approximately　17%　per　annum.　The　fuzzy　analysis　technique　and　alternative　models　of　fuzzy　modeling　were　applied　in　this　study.　An　alternative　to　project-based　financing　is　energy　performance　contracts　(EPCs).　Green　bonds　also　invest　in　public　and　private　funds　for　energy　efficiency　and　economic　growth.　Alternatively,　such　bonds　may　finance　environmental　initiatives　or　companies.　Testing　energy-efficiency　projects　with　low　payback　rates　may　be　expensive.　Expanding　the　green　economy　through　green　bonds　is　essential　for　financing　to　successfully　promote　energy　efficiency　finance　and　green　growth.　This　study　also　has　policy　implications　for　stakeholders.(c)　2022　Economic　Society　of　Australia,　Queensland.　Published　by　Elsevier　B.V.　All　rights　reserved.
