• 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…

• 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…
• News 23 September 2022 Supporting Preparedness for Article 6 Cooperation In mid-June 2022, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) launched the “Supporting Preparedness for Article 6 Cooperation” or SPAR6C Program. The 5-year, €20.4 million project is funded by the International Climate Initiative of Germany (IKI). SPAR6C aims to enhance readiness of Colombia, Pakistan, Thailand and Zambia to participate in the international carbon market under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. To achieve this, the project will work to increase private…
• Project 23 September 2022 Supporting Preparedness for Article 6 Cooperation (SPAR6C) The Article 6 of the Paris Agreement establishes a framework for the cooperation among countries to implement their NDCs. Carbon markets mechanisms in particular are considered useful approaches to achieve emissions reduction goals in a cost-effective manner. Besides, carbon markets may also contribute to promote ambition raising in both mitigation and adaptation, increase private sector engagement and pursue sustainable development. This has been acknowledged and interest on carbon markets has…
• News 26 August 2022 Financing energy efficiency for Mongolia’s NDC Global electricity demand by electric motors and motor systems can be reduced by 20-30% by 2030 if adequate efficiency measures are deployed, according to United for Efficiency. To realize these savings, performance standards for key industrial equipment, including electric heat pumps and motors, need to be complemented by incentives to increase the adoption of energy management systems and improved information. As part of the NDC Action Projects work in Mongolia, a Climate Mitigation…
• 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…
