International Initiative on Climate Technology Policy

About IICTP
IICTP facilitates exchange of best practices and innovative financing mechanisms between state clean energy fund managers and their international counterparts. Building upon the successful collaborative model developed for the US state funds under the Clean Energy States Alliance, this project was initiated in 2002 to develop an international infrastructure for ongoing dialogue on market-based clean energy activities that can be used by advocates in Europe and North America.

IICTP is managed by Clean Energy Group.

IICTP Activities

  • CEG and the Henrich Böll Foundation hosted the Second Meeting of the Montreal Group on Climate Stabilization in Berlin, Germany, September 27, 2006. This global network is working to explore complementary climate technology policies that could decrease carbon emissions, in addition to cap and trade efforts.
  • Clean Energy Group (CEG) is working with the Basel Agency for Sustainable Energy (BASE) and UNEP DTIE to develop the Sustainable Energy Finance Initiative (SEFI) Public Finanace Forum, to foster international collaboration and information exchange between public clean energy funders. This project interfaces with CESA's Global Alliance of Public Clean Energy Funds project.
  • This project will allow clean energy practitioners to share basic strategy, best practices and other information on "how" to bring about climate change reductions through shared clean energy programs and practices. The following tools to facilitate exchange:
    • Networking
    • Peer to peer exchange of information and best practice
    • Strategic planning to include analysis and development of new approaches to low carbon technology deployment
    • Exchange of best practices on technology diffusion and innovation, including private and public finance mechanisms
    • Communication of findings and opinions to sponsor Government and international bodies

Resources
