• Project 12 December 2018 Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency The Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency works to engage national and subnational governments to accelerate energy efficiency implementation, in line with global Sustainable energy objectives. Many developing world governments are motivated to act on energy efficiency, therefore the Copenhagen Centre can help with the capacity to realise their energy efficiency ambitions, and to develop projects that would be able to attract investments and generate actual energy savings. With a focus on the…
• Project 19 November 2018 NAMA Development for Buildings in South East Asia The building sector is widely recognized as responsible for approximately one-third of all greenhouse gas emissions and in rapidly developing Asia, the risk of lock-in in high consumption building infrastructure is imminent. Here, energy efficiency measures, enactment of sustainable building policies, technologies, and innovative approaches to financing provide the potential for significant emission reductions. The NAMA Development for Buildings in South East Asia project assisted…
• Project 26 October 2018 Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) The Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) aims to strengthen capacities in developing countries to assess the impacts of their climate policies and actions and to support greater transparency, effectiveness, ambition and trust in climate policies worldwide. The Initiative works with countries to build capacities on understanding and applying tools and approaches to measure, report and verify (MRV) greenhouse gas emissions reductions and adaptation action, as well as to strengthen…
• Project 11 October 2018 Facilitating Implementation and Readiness for Mitigation (FIRM) The Facilitating Implementation and Readiness for Mitigation (FIRM) project worked to strengthen national capacities to formulate low carbon development strategies and identify mitigation opportunities. FIRM worked within the context of national sustainable development priorities and the evolving concept of Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs). Towards this end, FIRM provided advice and capacity-building to stakeholders in participating countries. The project was funded by the…
• Project 3 October 2018 Adaptation Mitigation Readiness (ADMIRE)   ADMIRE supports a total of 6 projects focused on adaptation or joint adaptation/mitigation: In Cambodia, this joint mitigation-adaptation project aims to develop a NAMA for sustainable charcoal. Adaptation benefits are also achieved through direct economic contributions to community forest groups, and indirect benefits of restored ecosystems. Through this project, in Ghana, farmers are able to subscribe to text and voice messages alerting them to weather variability and good practice…
• Project 24 September 2018 Technology Needs Assessments (phase I and II) Between 2010 and 2018, UN Environment and UNEP DTU, with financing from the Global Environment Facility, completed two phases of Technology Needs Assessments (TNAs) in more than 60 countries. The overall objective was to go beyond identifying technology needs narrowly, work towards investment.  TNAs also present a unique opportunity for countries to track their needs for new equipment, techniques, services, capacities and skills necessary to mitigate and adapt to climate change. In…
