- News 16 September 2021 World is off track to meet Paris Agreement climate targets COVID-19 did not slow the relentless advance of climate change. There is no sign that we are growing back greener, as carbon dioxide emissions are rapidly recovering after a temporary blip due to the economic slowdown and are nowhere close to reduction targets. Greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere continue at record levels, committing the planet to dangerous future warming, according to a new multi-agency United in Science 2021 report. Rising global temperatures are fuelling…
- News 14 September 2021 New guide: Climate Tech in an urban context Cities are not only home to growing consumption and production activities, making them large consumers of energy and major greenhouse gas emitters, they also face major challenges from climate change impacts, including heatwaves, pluvial and river flooding, coastal flooding and coastal erosion, droughts and water scarcity, vector-borne diseases, wildfires and windstorms. Active participation from cities around the world is critical to defining and implementing a system-wide technology…
- News 10 September 2021 Cambodia uses transparency to create policies for national demands and international standards To help aid the effective implementation of the Paris Agreement and tracking of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), UNEP DTU Partnership, through the Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT), has been supporting the government of Cambodia to enhance its transparency framework. Building on the success of the first project phase, which helped develop a Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) system in the renewable energy sector, UNEP DTU Partnership and ICAT are supporting…
- News 10 September 2021 New guidebook: Climate Tech in an urban context New guidebook: Climate Tech in an urban context Cities account for an ever increasing part of the world's consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. New guide shows way to active participation in green tech transfer and climate action. Cities are not only home to growing consumption and production activities, making them large consumers of energy and major greenhouse gas emitters, they also face major challenges from climate change impacts, including heatwaves, pluvial and river flooding,…
- News 16 August 2021 Closing the Energy Efficiency knowledge gaps Improving energy efficiency is widely recognised as a key element and a low hanging fruit in addressing climate change while at the same time contributing to sustainable development. Specifically, energy management represents a significant opportunity for building, transport, industrial-commercial, and other sectors to reduce their energy use while maintaining or boosting productivity. The potential in improving energy efficiency is also reflected in Sustainable Development Goal 7, which calls…
- News 21 July 2021 New round of energy efficient LEDs on their way Argentinian municipalities are continuing using and developing a new business model that bundles energy efficient investments. 12 municipalities have now finalised their collective purchase of LEDs for street lighting through the Argentinean Network of Municipalities Against Climate Change (RAMCC) trust fund. The fund is a key pillar of a new innovative financing model for bundling energy efficient investments developed in collaboration with UNEP DTU Partnership’s Copenhagen Centre on Energy…
