• Podcast 2 December 2022 Energy Efficiency: From the Boiler Room to the Board Room Problem: Energy efficiency can enable more than 40% of the required GHG reductions to achieve global climate goals without requiring new technology breakthroughs. Improved energy efficiency has the potential to create new jobs, foster innovation, improve the productive use of electricity -i.e., cooling, clean cooking, lighting, heating, mobility, etc.- and boost economic growth. Energy efficiency is the fastest and most cost-effective way to reduce fossil fuel demand and build a cleaner and…
• News 29 July 2022 Zimbabwe ready to transition to electric mobility How to transition the transport sector, which produces 22% of greenhouse gas emissions in Zimbabwe to a green electric future, was the focus of an E-Mobility Stakeholder Awareness Workshop held on the 30th June 2022. The event was the accumulation of an 18-month process to produce a National E-Mobility Policy and Market Readiness Framework, a National E-Mobility Roadmap, and a Market Feasibility Study for Intracity E-buses in Harare. It was hosted by the Government of Zimbabwe with support from…
• 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 Energy Efficiency Financing Problem: There is a fundamental disconnect between the finance community and energy efficiency. The Mission Efficiency Financing Charette was convened to undo this disconnect. The charette brought together two groups: the world’s finance community (private sector, development banks, philanthropic organisations, climate finance facilities, etc.) and the projects and initiatives. Key message: To address current gaps and facilitate commitments to work together to redefine investing in energy…
• Publication 13 June 2022 National Electric Mobility Policy and Market Readiness Framework for Zimbabwe Climate change is a global development challenge which is impacting socio-economic well-being and development in all countries. Zimbabwe has seen increased frequency and magnitude of prolonged dry spells, droughts, tropical cyclones, and violent storms over the past two decades. This has been further exacerbated by the increase in importation of second-hand internal combustion vehicles and increase in purchase of private vehicles which contribute a significant amount to national greenhouse gas …
• News 22 February 2022 Argentinian municipalities bundles new EV investments In March, the Trust Fund of the Argentine Network of Municipalities against Climate Change (RAMCC) will start the process of buying new electric vehicles. The tender for the new electric vehicles is one of the many results emerging from bundling investments in energy efficiency at the local level through the RAMCC Trust. Previously, municipalities in RAMCC have been successful in procuring LED street lighting at favourable costs through the trust fund and have also started procuring solar…
• Webinar & E-Learning 10 September 2019 Analysis of hydrogen fuel cell and battery efficiency (Presentation) – 27.02.2019 The transition towards a world free of carbon emissions will determine the future of this generation. The scale required for the energy transition is massive and affects every sector of the economy. Except electricity, hydrogen produced from renewable energy sources might be an alternative if cost effective and efficient production technologies can be developed. As the world accelerating its effort to reduce – and even eliminate – the use of fossil fuels from the energy sector, electric…
• News 8 November 2018 Carving the way forward for urban transport in India How can we create an ecosystem, where electric vehicles are the most frequent means of transportation in India? A sustainable transportation system contributing to climate change mitigation as well as improved air quality and increased mobility for all Indians? At the annual flagship event Urban Mobility India these questions, among many others were asked and answers were offered by experts, stakeholders and policymakers. UNEP DTU Partnership has been participating in the Urban Mobility India…
