Cool Contributions fighting Climate Change II (C4 II): Advancing nationally determined contributions (NDCs) through climate-friendly and energy-efficient cooling The Paris Agreement (PA) and the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol (MP) provide the international framework for sustainable cooling. However, more policy coherence between the PA and MP is needed to enable ambitious climate action in the refrigeration and air conditioning (RAC) sector. The global project Cool Contributions fighting Climate Change II (C4 II) is a continuation of the IKI project Cool Contributions fighting Climate Change and assists policymakers in designing and implementing more ambitious nationally determined contributions (NDCs) in the cooling sector. The focus countries are Costa Rica, Grenada and the Philippines. Objective Improved competencies of key actors in the RAC sector and related structures have led to more sustainable cooling solution and reduced GHG emissions. The project pursues country-specific aims in its cooperation with the three partner countries in two ways: Firstly, the countries will receive support in advancing and implementing the cooling strategies developed during the first project phase. Secondly, all three countries will come to serve as valuable sources of knowledge on cooling strategies, policy approaches and green cooling technology demonstration, which is highly relevant for an increasing number of third countries. |
