Message to the P4G Summit

Ember's message to the 2021 P4G Seoul Summit emphasizes that achieving 100% clean power is a prerequisite for global carbon neutrality by 2050, citing the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Net Zero by 2050 report.

• The International Energy Agency (IEA) identifies 100% clean power as a necessary prerequisite for the global transition to net zero by 2050, projecting that the power sector will transition from being the largest CO2-emitting sector in 2020 to the only 100% clean sector by 2040.
• The G7 nations issued a communique on May 21, 2021, committing to stop overseas coal financing within the year, although they did not commit to the IEA's target of 100% clean power by 2035.
• P4G member countries, particularly South Africa, South Korea, Indonesia, and Vietnam, possess significant coal fleets, much of which is sub-critical. Transitioning these developing and emerging countries away from coal will require bespoke governmental climate financing.
