Deep dives
Prioritizing Fielding Solutions and Building Infrastructure
There is a shift in focus at COP28 towards fielding solutions and building infrastructure to address climate change. The emphasis is on going beyond raising ambition and making stronger NDCs. The goal is to transition from the current $1.7 trillion spent on clean energy deployment to the required $4 trillion by 2030. Private sector engagement and financing are crucial, and COP28 highlights the importance of catalyzing private sector finance while also addressing barriers such as policies, regulations, permitting, and financing. The negotiations at COPs are seen as important but not delivering substantial results, with more meaningful actions and announcements happening outside of the negotiations.
