Just Transition, Just Finance

Just transition costs and financing mechanisms are a centrepiece issue for climate action. iFOREST’s latest report, Just Transition, Just Finance: Methodology and Costs for Just Energy Transition in India, introduces an empirical approach to estimate the cost of a just energy transition at the sub-national and national levels in India. The methodology can also be tailored to estimate just energy transition costs at an asset level.

The report elaborates on a broad spectrum of required investments, including grants and subsidies, necessary to decommission and repurpose coal mines and power plants, support workforce transition, supply green energy alternatives, promote economic diversification, and strengthen community resilience.

This webinar will bring together experts to discuss just transition costs and financing aspects, including perspectives from countries in the Global South.
