This Technology Transfer Advances Timor Leste's

• Nationally Determined Contribution to achieve higher efficiency and less carbon emissions from power generation through the use of (pico/micro-hydro), biomass, biogas, solar PV, wind power at different scales, natural gas power generation, etc.

This Technology Transfer Advances Djibouti's

• Nationally Determined Contribution to avoid 1.8 MtCO2e of future emissions, reducing its emissions by 40% compared to the reference scenario. Implementing conditional measures would enable the reduction of an additional 0.9 MtCO2e, or 20% of GHG emissions by 2030 compared to the reference scenario. The conditional mitigation scenario would therefore allow the Republic of Djibouti to maintain its level of emissions at the equivalent of 2010 levels.

Jakarta is moving towards building a climate resilient infrastructure using hydrodynamic modeling. The Climate Technology Centre and Network connected technology experts with government agencies to help reduce flooding risks. Based on this collaboration, Jakarta has attracted funds to upscale its efforts.

Description

The Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) presents a new feature on its website dedicated to gender and clean technologies.

Women, as well as men, significantly contribute to combating climate change through their household, food production, natural resource management and energy provision activities. The CTCN highlights climate technologies that take into account the particular needs of women and differential impacts on women compared to men. The page provides access to case studies, methods, webinars, publications.

The New Economy

Technologies are fundamental to combating global warming and building climate-resilient societies all over the world. While technological innovation is an important factor, there are already thousands of technologies available which have proven capacity to contribute to adaptation and mitigation goals. The key challenge is getting them deployed where they are most needed. This requires supportive policy and regulatory infrastructures, as well as a workforce with the capacity to manage and adapt them.
