This report by the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), in partnership with the Clinton Climate Initiative and UN-OHRLLS, provides policymakers in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) with best practices to increase the resilience of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems against extreme wind events. Based on field evaluations of failures and successes following hurricanes in the Caribbean and Pacific, the document outlines technical specifications for ground-mount and rooftop systems and emphasizes the need for multi-stakeholder collaboration to ensure infrastructure survives Category 5 storms.

This policy brief from the World Resources Institute provides analysis and recommendations for UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol Parties on technical issues related to carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). It aims to establish best practice criteria to ensure safe and effective CCS deployment without presupposing the technology's global success or recommending its inclusion in specific mechanisms.

This working paper provides a guide for US state policymakers to regulate methane emissions from natural gas development, focusing on cost-effective technologies and model rules to reduce leaks across the supply chain.
