IEA, IIT Delhi partner for policy, info sharing for clean energy transition

The deal targets emerging and developing economies.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi to jointly study the role of energy technology innovation in reducing emissions and leading clean energy transitions.

In a statement, the IEA said the key areas for collaboration include policy analysis to boost energy innovation and information exchange on energy technology trends, particularly in emerging and developing economies.

“The potential for emerging and developing economies in the new energy economy is vast, but the policies, investment and expertise must be tapped if it is to be realised,” said IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol.

He added the agreement will help overcome existing barriers to clean energy deployment by sharing knowledge, best practices, and tangible actions.

“We believe this partnership can help us build capacity to address the climate and sustainability challenge and develop future-ready graduates for society. IEA and IIT Delhi together can enable strategies for developing and emerging economies to manage the transition to net zero,” said IIT Delhi Director Rangan Banerjee.

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.
