Wedoany.com Report-Nov 12, The COP29 Presidency and International Energy Agency (IEA) are convening the final in a series of high-level energy transition dialogues to support the COP29 climate summit. The dialogues – co-chaired by IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol and COP29 President-Designate Mukhtar Babayev, and held in close partnership with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat – aim to continue building international consensus around pathways to drive energy sector emissions to net zero and limit global warming to 1.5 °C. They are a continuation of the successful series co-chaired last year by the IEA and the United Arab Emirates’ COP28 Presidency.
The final dialogue focused on COP29 will be hosted in Baku. Leaders will have the opportunity to call for what they want to see from the world at COP29 to keep the 1.5°C target within reach, and to share the actions which they are taking to align with this pathway, including on implementing the ambitious energy goals agreed at COP28.
