Energy Efficiency: A Cheaper Path to a 2-Degree Future
Organized by: Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research (ISI)
TERI's Role: Panelist
The event discussed ClimateWorks & Fraunhoffer ISI report, "How energy efficiency cuts costs for a 2 degree future" - which includes an assessment of the contribution of energy efficiency to reducing the cost of reducing warming in line with the internationally agreed 2 degree limit. The report focuses primarily on the US, EU, India, China, Brazil and Mexico, and found an overall, and significant, dollar value reduction for the costs when compared to more energy intensive decarbonization pathways. The report also makes a number of specific regional policy recommendations which will be of use to policy makers (including for INDCs), and funders looking for opportunities to keep global warming to 2 degrees or less. |

Looking beyond the mitigation targets of INDCs: finance, fairness and adaptation
Organized by: DIE, ACTS and TERI
TERI's Role: Co-organizer
The INDCs can be considered as self-differentiation of countries' responsibilities. Although INDCs are primarily an instrument for mitigation ambitions, other aspects also provide insights in the ambitions and directions of the negotiations. For example, to what extent are mitigation ambitions of developing countries conditional to climate finance? What is included on Loss & Damage? Who writes about adaptation, and what? This event looked beyond mitigation target in INDCs, and focused on issues such as finance, fairness and fossil fuel subsidy reform, just to mention a few. |

Will Paris pave way for Africa's prosperity and transformation?
Organized by: TERI
Africa clearly is a continent which has very high vulnerability to the impacts of climate change. It is also at a stage of development where it can make choices, particularly on the mix of energy that it uses, which would ensure sustainability on the one hand and a low emissions pathway of development on the other. This session focused on the special challenge and opportunities of Africa as a sequel to COP in Paris. |
