Achieving Just Energy Transition G20
Summary
This policy brief from the Stockholm Environment Institute provides recommendations for G20 governments to ensure a just transition as they phase out fossil fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Key insights
- G20 countries are urged to take concrete actions to phase out fossil fuels because they represent a significant portion of the global population and are responsible for massive amounts of greenhouse gas emissions.
- To achieve a just energy transition, the document identifies four primary imperatives: improving international coordination, providing transition finance, diversifying economies, and addressing the dominance of regimes dependent on fossil fuels.
- The brief offers three specific recommendations for the G20: synchronising and coordinating global just energy transition efforts, employing appropriate transition finance mechanisms to diversify economies, and improving governance to move energy regimes toward low-carbon pathways.
