A global coalition of leaders from across the energy landscape committed to achieving net-zero emissions by mid-century
Fossil Fuels in Transition: Committing to the phase-down of all fossil fuels
The ETC's latest report, "Fossil Fuels in Transition," urgently calls for drastic reductions in coal, oil, and gas use by 2050 to align with COP21 Paris Agreement targets. The analysis looks at how fast fossil fuel use can decline, and with what implications for the balance between demand and prospective supply.
Overview
The Energy Transitions Commission (ETC) is a global coalition of leaders from across the energy landscape working together to accelerate the transition to a zero-emissions future.
We develop transition roadmaps and tools building on robust analysis and extensive exchanges with experts and practitioners across energy-intensive value chains. This work is generally undertaken with a range of partners, industry associations, NGOs and experts. In the harder-to-abate sectors specifically, we work under the umbrella of the Mission Possible Platform, an initiative established by the ETC and the World Economic Forum.
Our main areas of focus
Our activities encompass the energy sector itself, as well as key energy-consuming sectors in industry, transport and buildings.
In each sector, we work with corporate leaders to define a pathway to net-zero emissions and establish the building blocks of net-zero value chains. This work is generally undertaken with a range of partners, industry associations, NGOs and experts. In the harder-to-abate sectors specifically, we work under the umbrella of the Mission Possible Platform, an initiative established by the ETC and the World Economic Forum.
