Key findings

Energy efficiency and renewable energy activities in developing countries in the last 10 years will significantly reduce co2 emissions from energy use by 2020.Attributing emission reductions to specific actors is challenging, as many actors often contribute to the same projects. There is insufficient data and no common methodology to quantify the reductions. Estimates in this report are an initial estimate of what could be achieved. The 1 gigaton coalition is working to address these challenges to quantify the full reductions generated by energy projects.
