CSE and What Next Forum say Globally Funded Feed-in Tariff Mechanism

(G-FiT) for enabling renewable energy has the potential to provide energy access to all as well as mitigate climate change impacts Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) and What Next Forum successfully conducted a side event on “Enabling Renewable Energy for Energy Access through Globally Funded Feed-in Tariff Mechanism” last Friday at Bonn, Germany, under the umbrella of UNFCCC.

This transformative solution can also help break the current impasse in the climate negotiations by offering genuine scope for cooperation between countries North and South.
