SUMMARY:COP25 - "Doubling the Climate Benefits of the Kigali amendment by improving energy efficiency in the cooling sector"
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday 10 December 2019 from 13.15 to 14.45\, Andrea Voigt\, EPEE’s Director General\, will speak at the below event organised by the CCAC\, France and the IGSD. Read more about the event below! \nDoubling the Climate Benefits of the Kigali amendment by improving energy efficiency in the cooling sector\nMadrid\, COP25\, Room 2 \nTuesday 10 December 2019\, 13.15-14.45. \n\nORGANIZERS\n\n\n\n\n\nClimate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstitute for Governance and Sustainable Development (IGSD)\n\n\n\n\nCooling is central to health and the environment. Efficient\, clean cooling for all underpins many Sustainable Development Goals and represents an opportunity to avoid substantial climate and air pollutant emissions. \nThe phase-down of HFC refrigerants under the Kigali amendment has the potential to avoid up to 0.1˚C of warming by 2050 and up to 0.4℃ by 2100. The economic\, environmental\, and health benefits of catalyzing simultaneous energy efficiency improvements\, in concert with the HFC phase-down\, supports reduced energy consumption and avoided emissions of CO2 and black carbon\, which can potentially double the climate benefit of the phase down alone. \nEnhancement of energy efficiency in the cooling sector is a strategic\, near-term opportunity to realize significant climate and clean air benefits. \nIn this event\, our distinguished panel will showcase the concrete actions of countries and other actors to catalyze ambitious measures to improve energy efficiency in the cooling sector while transitioning out of HCFC and HFC refrigerants. \nPROGRAM\nOpening Remarks and Welcome\n\nElisabeth Borne\, Minister\, Ministry of Ecological and Solidary Transition\, France\nChina (TBC)\n\n\nKeynote\n\nDurwood Zaelke\, President\, Institute for Governance & Sustainable Development\n\n\nPanel\n\nShinjirō Koizumi\, Minister of Environment\, Japan\nDr Mohammad Mahmoud\, Minister\, Ministry of Environment\, Nigeria (TBC)\nMinister Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi\, Minister of Climate Change and Environment for the United Arab\, United Arab Emirates (TBC)\nDr. Harsh Vardhan\, Union Minister of Environment\, Forest and Climate Change\, India (TBC)\nBertrand Piccard\, Founder and Chairman\, Solar Impulse Foundation\nSabin Basnyat\, Energy Efficiency Senior Specialist\, Green Climate Fund\nAndrea Voigt\, Director General\, European Partnership for Energy and the Environment (EPEE)\n\n\nClosing Remarks\n\nInger Andersen\, Executive Director\, UN Environment Programme\n\n
