Technology Roadmap - China Wind Energy Development Roadmap 2050
Roadmap Technology Roadmap - China Wind Energy Development Roadmap 2050 Developed by the Energy Resource Institute of China’s National Reform and Development Commission (ERI-NDRC), the China Wind Energy Roadmap is the first national roadmap that has been developed by a country with IEA support, drawing from its global roadmap series. The report shows how the People's Republic of China, already the world’s largest wind market, could reach 1 000 gigawatts of wind power by the middle of the century, an achievement that would reduce CO2 emissions by 1.5 gigatonnes per year, or roughly equivalent to the…

An energy sector roadmap to carbon neutrality in China
An energy sector roadmap to carbon neutrality in China In September 2020, President Xi Jinping announced that the People’s Republic of China will “aim to have CO2 emissions peak before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060”. Amid the growing wave of governments around the world setting targets for reaching net zero emissions, no pledge is as significant as China’s. The country is the world’s largest energy consumer and carbon emitter, accounting for one-third of global CO2 emissions. The pace of China’s emissions reductions will be an important factor in global efforts to limit global…

Unlocking Ukraine’s Hydrogen Opportunity: A Roadmap
…industrial base that can help to restore the fiscal balance. This is a long-term opportunity that will not happen overnight, but efforts need to start today to progressively build the experience required to enable such an industry in the future.The report identifies the actions required across four pillars (physical assets, regulation, financing and cross-cutting areas) and three time horizons (covering from 2 to 20 years), in order to provide a roadmap to enable the renewable hydrogen opportunity. Policy recommendations Explore what actions can be taken in the short term to lay the foundations for future hydrogen deployment.

Empowering Ukraine Through a Decentralised Electricity System
…power deficit in 2024/2025. The move towards a greater level of decentralisation in power generation can also support Ukraine in meeting its long-term decarbonisation goals, as set out in the 2030 National Energy and Climate Plan and the 2050 Energy Strategy. The roadmap also lays out seven key policy recommendations for Ukraine to build a more resilient and modern power system by establishing a vision for decentralisation and by strengthening regulatory frameworks, coordination mechanisms, electricity markets and relevant technical requirements.The Ukrainian translation of this report is available in the "Related files" tab.

Implementing Clean Energy Transitions
…most recent ones, are on the path to deliver emissions reductions required to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.Bringing about a road transport decarbonisation pathway in line with the APS in the selected major emerging economies - Brazil, People’s Republic of China, India, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa - will require significant enhancement of existing policies and the introduction of new innovative policies and measures in each of selected countries. Our report sets out six policy areas critical to the achievement of the road transport transitions and a series of recommendations for strengthening financing for the sector.Importantly, the report…

Clean Energy Transitions Programme 2022
…the programme’s major achievements in the last year. During this time, the CETP has driven forward an ambitious and impactful agenda, even as the world has contended with multiple overlapping crises. As just some examples, the CETP delivered the Energy Sector Roadmap to Net Zero Emissions in Indonesia, which ministers strongly welcomed at the G20, and has played a key role in shaping Indonesia’s landmark Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP). Similarly, the IEA has been able to take its engagement to a whole new level with various African countries, such as with its first-ever report on the…

Tracking Clean Energy Innovation: Focus on China
…carbon neutrality objectives and position the country in global value chains for clean energy technologies. This has important implications for global policy discussions, as China’s ability to innovate effectively will have implications for global energy transitions. Mapping China’s innovation landscape This report serves as an extension to the chapter on “Innovation for carbon neutrality” in the IEA Energy Sector Roadmap to Carbon Neutrality in China and provides complementary analysis and information. It seeks to map the landscape of clean energy innovation in China, in a similar way to the technology innovation sections of energy country reviews for IEA...

The Role of Gas in Today's Energy Transitions
…change, but there can nonetheless be significant CO2 and air quality benefits, in specific countries, sectors and timeframes, from using less emissions-intensive fuels.Since 2010, coal-to-gas switching has saved around 500 million tonnes of CO2 - an effect equivalent to putting an extra 200 million EVs running on zero-carbon electricity on the road over the same period. Country analysis The four countries and regions chosen for in-depth analysis in this report – the United States, Europe, China and India – display a wide range of market and policy dynamics, which affects the ways in which coal and gas compete…

Energy System Resilience
…Agency (IEA) has worked closely with Ukraine, an Association country, on energy system resilience, publishing a 10-point plan ahead of the 2024-2025 winter, along with a 2025-2026 update and a roadmap for decentralising Ukraine's power system. This has provided Ukraine with critical assistance, while also offering invaluable real-world lessons that can inform resilience planning for IEA Member countries and beyond. Industry from Europe and other regions is already collaborating with the Ukrainian private sector and learning from practices forged under extreme conditions as they provide support. This report distils key lessons from Ukraine's experience…
