The article analyzes legislative and regulatory acts, as well as the positive and negative practice of financing projects within the framework of the Federal project "Improving the Volga River". Recommendations on attracting green bank loans as an alternative to government support are proposed. The author has studied and proposed options for currently available green banking products. The article discusses the author's recommendations on options for attracting green bank loans to solve this problem, including the risk of penalties for enterprises, the amount of which can lead to fines of up to 5% of the company's revenue.

Special attention is paid to the role of government support, the interaction of the banking sector and industrial enterprises, reducing the impact of ESG risks, as well as the prospects for the development of ESG banking in Russia.
