Just Transition Support Platform for developing countries launched

This forms part of the ADB’s commitment to ensure build capacity of developing countries.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has launched the Just Transition Support Platform in aid of developing countries.

The platform is intended to build the capacity of ADB’s developing member countries in planning, implementing and financing the transition to net zero.

“This platform will help to build inclusive and equitable action toward achieving net zero in Asia and the Pacific, while maximizing the gender, social, and economic outcomes of climate action,” Director General of ADB's Sustainable Development and Climate Change Department Bruno Carrasco said.

“The Just Transition Support Platform will help our DMCs implement practical just transition approaches to meet their goals under the Paris Agreement.”

According to the ADB, the Asia-Pacific region accounted for more than half of the world’ carbon emissions, giving rise to the urgent need for a rapid and just transition to net zero.

Global clean energy tech market to hit $2t by 2035

This is fuelled by investments as countries aim to enhance energy security.The global clean energy technology market is projected to grow from $700b in 2023 to over $2t by 2035, nearing the scale of the crude oil market, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).This growth is fuelled by significant investments in clean technology manufacturing as countries aim to enhance energy security, maintain economic competitiveness, and cut emissions. Investment is concentrated in regions with established positions in clean energy, particularly China, the European Union, the UK, and increasingly, India.Whilst the US, EU, and India have taken measures to support their clean energy sectors, China is expected to remain the world's manufacturing hub. By 2035, China's clean technology exports are forecasted to exceed $340b—comparable to projected oil export revenues from Saudi Arabia and the UAE.Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa contribute less than 5% of global cleantech production value, yet the IEA suggests that these areas still hold opportunities within the clean energy economy. Developing economies, for instance, could leverage competitive advantages to advance in the value chain beyond resource extraction.The IEA said Southeast Asia could become one of the most cost-effective regions for producing polysilicon and wafers for solar panels over the next decade.
