• Event 26 July 2022 Enabling energy service companies: catalysts for European energy independence and decarbonisation ESCOs are a proven tool to increase energy efficiency and decarbonize priority sectors for a sustainable energy transition which are key in achieving Europe’s energy independence. The session will discuss the needs of the ESCO industry, the existing enabling framework and emerging opportunities in Europe, that are complemented by insights from global ESCO markets.
• Webinar & E-Learning 26 July 2022 Upscaling E-Mobility in Developing Countries for Climate Mitigation (Webinar) - 07.07.2022 Transportation is responsible for 24% of the direct global CO2 emissions due to fossil fuel combustion. The Paris agreement on climate change set the goal of limiting global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels. Electric Vehicles (EVs) are widely considered a powerful mitigation option to reduce CO2 emissions from buses, passenger cars and two and three-wheelers in the transport sector. The global push toward EVs is reflected in…
• Podcast 26 July 2022 Financing Energy Efficiency Investments Problem: It is a critical time for energy efficiency. Despite its recognised importance, improvements have fallen short of expectations. Energy efficiency increase amounted to only around 2% per year between 2011 and 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic further hit energy efficiency efforts hard. In 2020, improvements were estimated to be only 0.8%, which is substantially lower than the SDG target of 2.6% per year. The International Energy Agency finds that progress on energy efficiency globally…

UNEP-CCC, in partnership with the Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN), is supporting the…
• News 22 July 2022 China strengthens its implementation of ETF Home to around 1.4 billion people and covering a vast expanse across Asia, China is a diverse country with a complex climate characterized by a monsoon zone in the East, an arid Northwest region and alpine-like weather along the Tibetan plateau. With these different climate conditions, come differing challenges: the concentrated rain of a monsoon can cause floods, storms and typhoons; the lack of surface water in a continental dry climate could lead to a fragile environment; and the frequent…
• News 15 July 2022 Zimbabwe on track to better climate action transparency Zimbabwe has finished the first phase of the country’s work with the Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT), and is now on track to better collect data key to attaining national climate change goals. The data will be crucial in mobilizing resources for implementation of Zimbabwe’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement, and for tracking and evaluating implementation, as well as assessing impacts of policies and actions. “The support received from ICAT…
