Coal is the most carbon intensive fossil fuel - phasing it out is key to achieving the 1.5°C Paris Agreement goal. Most emissions from coal are in the electricity sector, so coal’s phase-out is relatively cheap and easy, as the technologies that can replace it already exist. Our research shows coal needs to be phased out globally by 2040 for the world to meet its climate commitments.

We provide technical support to vulnerable developing countries to develop 2035 Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Long Term Low Emissions Development Strategies (LT-LEDS). The project aims to empower these countries to develop more ambitious emissions reduction and adaptation targets that contribute to global efforts in achieving the Paris Agreement.

Fossil gas has long been marketed as a “bridge fuel” on the way to a cleaner energy system – a less-polluting alternative to coal. But this is a dangerous fallacy promoted by vested interests. Our research shows gas needs to be phased out globally by 2045 for the world to meet its climate commitments.

The Global Mitigation Potential Atlas quantifies countries’ mitigation potential, with a view to inspire greater ambition to reduce emissions and implementation efforts, and identify optimal pathways towards 1.5°C

Supporting the implementation of NDCs in the Caribbean: transforming transport and energy sectors towards a low-carbon and climate-resilient future (NDC-TEC) is a programme funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety’s (BMU) climate initiative, to support countries in the Caribbean to enhance the ambition of their climate targets, implement transformative actions within the energy and transport sectors, and to facilitate strategic access to climate financing. So far, tailored support has been offered to Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, and Saint Lucia.
