New trend-setting platform aims to spur energy transition as integral part of COVID-19 recoveryAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, 21 January 2021 – Today, IRENA’s Members overwhelmingly approved the establishment of a new, vision-building Global High-Level Forum on Energy Transition, using IRENA’s knowledge and convening powers to center-stage energy transitions at the heart of an effective post-COVID recovery. The decision concludes the Agency’s annual Assembly which brought together over 2000 participants from Members and partners in a virtual meeting from 18 - 21 January. To maintain the political momentum for green recovery in 2021, the new Forum intends to accelerate energy transition action from countries, industry, business, investors, academia and visionaries. It will focus on three overarching themes for 2021 such as building recovery efforts on energy transition, increasing renewables in health and food as well as driving net-zero strategies in line with the Paris Agreement. The Forum is expression of countries’ reaffirmation of the Agency’s strategic mandate entrusted in 2018 to lead on energy transitions and reflects the crucial role renewable energy plays in meeting development and climate goals as outlined in IRENA’s “Post-COVID recovery: An agenda for resilience, development and equality”. Open to its 163 Members and 21 States in Accession, the Forum will be presided by the President of the Assembly and convened at least once ahead of every Assembly. “This Assembly has shown that energy transition has risen to the forefront of the global agenda”, said IRENA’s Director-General Francesco La Camera. “Our discussions on recovery have underscored the urgency to intensify and strengthen international cooperation and take action on energy transitions. This year will be crucial in our collective ability to make a lasting difference.” “I hope the new Forum will provide governments and partners with a global platform to strengthen cooperation and identify solutions to respond to the effects of the pandemic and advance net-zero strategies. It is IRENA’s primary task to empower our Members with knowledge and tools to translate the opportunities that energy transitions offer into policies, strategies and results.” The Forum will be guided by first-hand insights from the investment, business and finance community, reflecting Members request to open new and strengthen existing cooperation with the private sector in support of IRENA’s investment and policy agenda for energy transitions. Members also requested IRENA to support country-led actions in the preparation and follow up of the High-Level Energy Dialogue convened by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in September and in the run-up to the Climate Conference COP26 in December. Furthermore, IRENA Members recognised:
