Decision 1/CMA.4
• Recall Parties to strengthen their 2030 NDC targets
• Urges Parties to develop and submit their LTCS
• Calls upon Parties to rapidly scaling up the deployment of clean power
generation and energy efficiency measures, including accelerating
efforts towards the phasedown of unabated coal power and phase-out
of inefficient fossil fuel subsidies…..

National Level
• Updated, more ambitious 2030 NDC: carbon budget, emissions peak
(2025), absolute emissions goal
• LTCS submitted in 2020
• Climate Change Law, 2022 (Carbon Neutrality before 2050, GHG
emission limits, carbon pricing, fines for non-compliance)
Sectoral level (energy sector)
• Policies and regulations to accelerate the energy transition
• RE penetration has increased dramatically
• Coal phase out as a key enabler (PPCA member)
• Just Transition Strategy and local action plans

Coal Phase-out
PPCA member since 2021
8. • 167 national and sub-national governments, businesses, and organisations.
• Launched in 2017
• Coal phase-out by 2030 (developed countries)
• 2040 as a final year for other members
Benefits:
• Strengthen our leadership role (our unique coal phase-out process)
• Accelerate our energy transition (access to technical assistance and
funding opportunities)
• Opportunities for green hydrogen and derivatives
• Peer to peer exchange of best practices, challenges, alternative solutions
9. Discussion questions
1. How could the MWP support efforts underway by relevant existing
initiatives (EIs) to help scale up mitigation efforts in the near term?
• MWP commitments must be aligned with those of EIs
• Concrete, stronger commitments must be urged under MWP
• MWP to make a stronger call for multiple-source investments for EE, RE
and related infrastructure
• MWP should ensure EIs are regular dialogues attendees
2. How could the work of relevant ongoing mitigation-related initiatives
feed into and inform the MWP process to make it more impactful?
• Active involvement of EIs in MWP dialogues (events)
• Progress reports should be shared regularly
• Parties should showcase their progress/challenges in energy transition
