- Webinar & E-Learning 13 October 2022 Unlocking clean energy finance & investments for Green Hydrogen (Webinar) - 11.10.2022 During the webinar, our speaker from the OECD presents the main findings from their analysis of how Green Hydrogen can contribute to the decarbonisation of the economy and achieve net zero emissions by 2050. They also present scenarios of global hydrogen demand in 2050 and the role of low-carbon hydrogen in cumulative emissions reduction. The OECD work primarily focuses on the role of green hydrogen for emerging and developing economies, to understand the enabling market conditions required to…
- Webinar & E-Learning 13 October 2022 District Energy - A Case study of Zakito Deep Sea Water District Cooling in Curaçao (Webinar) - 30.09.2022 The webinar presents the case study of the Zakito District Cooling project in Curacao, one of the winners of the 7th global district energy climate awards. The project is designed to utilize deep sea water to meet the cooling demand. The realization of the project will unlock the vast potential of District Cooling and related Deep Seawater Industry projects in Curaçao and the Caribbean, a market potential estimated at USD 1.0-2.0 billion. Zakito District Cooling intends to connect all suitable…
- News 6 October 2022 Renewable energy for refugees: How to make a difference More and more people are forced to flee their homes, as a result of persecution, conflict, violence and human rights violations. As the number of forcibly displaced hits a new record of than 100 million, UNHCR and host countries are struggling to accommodate growing numbers of refugees and internally displaced persons, approx. 80% of whom reside in low or middle-income countries. A new Research Paper published today on “Scaling sustainable energy services for displaced people and their hosts:…
- Project 4 October 2022 The Adaptation Working Group of the independent Global Stocktake (iGST) The Global Stocktake (GST) is a process that periodically takes stock of collective progress toward the long-term goals established by the Paris Agreement. The Independent Global Stocktake (iGST) aligns the independent community to increase the accuracy, transparency, accountability, and relevance of the official GST process that empowers countries to take greater climate action. iGST includes four thematic working groups on adaptation, mitigation, finance and equity; and three regional civil…

- Event 29 September 2022 District Energy - A Case study of Floating Office in Rotterdam (Webinar) Floating Office Rotterdam is the largest floating office in the world. Off-grid and carbon-neutral, it floats if water levels rise due to climate change. The heat pump with surface water heat exchange is one of the innovations that showcases the building’s mission for climate change. The heat/cold generation is supplied by 2 heat pumps which are placed in the floating building’s pontoon. The pontoon consists of 15 similar prefab concrete floating boxes, with a heat-generating network of tubes…
- News 28 September 2022 NDC tracking framework links Belize’s climate and sustainable development policies Belize’s partnership with ICAT and UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre began in 2019 and aimed to address gaps and barriers that were hindering climate change data capture and monitoring. In turn, this affected Belize’s ability to effectively track its commitments made under the Paris Agreement and ultimately, its ability to meet its reporting requirements. The country’s first Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) in 2015 outlined mitigation opportunities across multiple sectors…
- Publication 27 September 2022 Role of Energy Efficiency for Low Carbon Transformation of India Globally there is a greater commitment among national governments towards the achievement of the global 2 °C temperature stabilisation target and doubling the rate of energy intensity improvement. India’s energy demand and energy imports have risen sizably over the past two decades. In 2014, India imported 83 % of its oil, 29 % of coal and 68 % of natural gas demand. Improving energy efficiency (EE) is identified among the prominent options in India’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)…
