This report has two objectives: to contribute to policymakers’ understanding of the factors that institutional investors consider when investing in areas such as renewable energy and energy efficiency, and to set out what institutional investors see as ‘investment-grade’ climate change and clean energy policy that would support significant low c
This publication, “Sharing Solutions: Transatlantic Cooperation for a Low-Carbon Economy”, highlights the main lessons on how to build a clean economy despite economic and political challenges through transatlantic dialogue.
The Government of Madhya Pradesh has drafted this State Action Plan on Climate Change (SAPCC), in which it envisages to factor in climate change concerns in its developmental planning and chartering a path of low carbon development.
The extent to which governments subsidize electricity generation technologies is not generally clear. However, claims abound that each generation type—nuclear, fossil fuel and renewables-benefits to the detriment of others.
Meeting the enormous challenge of decarbonising world energy systems will require a rapid expansion of investment in clean technologies on a global scale. Mobilising these resources will be a daunting task, and it is important to undertake the transition at the lowest cost possible.
