Please join the Energy for Growth Hub and the Payne Institute for Public Policy at the Colorado School of Mines as we welcome Brad Handler, Payne Institute Research Associate, presenting a virtual seminar titled How Public Funders can Help Take Coal Offline Ahead of Schedule and Promote a Just Transition in Low-Income and Emerging Economies on Thursday, January 27, 2022 from 8:30am – 9:00am (MT).
At COP26, over 40 countries pledged to phase out coal completely by 2030-2040, but achieving these goals won’t be easy, or cheap. That’s where innovative financing comes in. The right financial structures can help bring coal offline faster and accelerate new clean energy deployment.
For the Energy for Growth Hub first Coffee Break Briefing of the year, Brad Handler of the Payne Institute at the Colorado School of Mines will discuss his recent work with Hub Fellow Morgan Bazilian and Hub Policy Director Katie Auth on how public funders can help take coal offline ahead of schedule and promote a just transition in low-income and emerging economies. Katie Auth will moderate.
