- News 13 April 2021 Linking TNAs and NDCs to enable technology transfer Accelerating technology transfer The information that TNAs provide about the potential, ability and scale of climate change technologies can play a unique role in the formulation and implementation of NDCs, through technology transfer. Actions identified in the Technology Action Plans (TAPs) highlight what needs to be done to activate robust market systems and the enabling conditions for technology transfer, diffusion and uptake. These actions can in turn strengthen longer-term strategies…
- Project 12 April 2021 Euroclima+ project on Energy Efficient Municipal Buildings in Argentina The actions contained in this project are focused on the municipalities since they make up the closest link between public administrations and citizens, creating an opportunity for improvement and transfer of experience to buildings of other institutions and companies in their territory. Savings and energy efficiency under this project would help meet the mitigation objectives of Argentina's Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). The project aims to achieve a large-scale impact,…
