ICSC, together with the Global Shield against Climate Risks, the Department of Finance, and the Start Network, will host the Global Shield Against Climate Risks: Information Session for Countries in the Philippines, to be held at the Makati Diamond Residences on April 14, 2025. The #GlobalShield Against Climate Risks aims to strengthen the financial protection of climate-vulnerable economies through the increase and improvement of access to country-driven climate and disaster risk finance and insurance (#CDRFI) mechanisms. Civil society participation in the Global Shield and its processes is crucial to ensure that these mechanisms are inclusive, effective, and sustainable.

The Green Grids Initiative Asia-Pacific Annual Dialogue: Advancing Regional Grid Integration ⚡🌏 On 12–13 March 2025, representatives from CASE joined the 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗱𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 (𝗚𝗚𝗜) 𝗔𝘀𝗶𝗮-𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘂𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗸𝗼𝗸, hosted by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP). The event brought together over 60 key stakeholders — including multilateral organisations, governments, financial institutions, the private sector, and think tanks — to explore solutions for enhancing regional transmission grids and advancing energy connectivity across Asia-Pacific. 🌐 CASE contributed to discussions on regional energy integration, multilateral power trade, and sustainable grid development. Key topics included: ⚡ Mobilising support for priority transmission projects ⚡ Exploring project finance solutions and capacity-building opportunities ⚡ Addressing supply chain challenges in transmission infrastructure (including subsea cables) 🔑 Key takeaways from the dialogue: 𝟭. 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 – New approaches are essential for unlocking complex transmission projects and addressing curtailment issues in renewable energy deployment. 𝟮. 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 – Reliable and sustainable supply chains are key to making large-scale transmission projects viable and bankable. 𝟯. 𝗔 𝗪𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲-𝗼𝗳-𝗘𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱 – Effective collaboration between the public and private sectors is necessary to overcome barriers and maximise the benefits of grid integration. 💡 To support these efforts, three working groups were established to focus on: 🔹 Climate Finance for Grids 🔹 Financing Models for Grids 🔹 Building Stronger Supply Chains for Grid Expansion CASE’s work on regional grid integration, multilateral power trade, and transmission is part of our efforts under the ASEAN Power Grid-Advancement Programme (APG-AP). 👉 Learn more about this initiative, click https://lnkd.in/g786zGM6 📷 Green Grid Initiative (GGI) #CASEforSEA #EnergyTransition #GridIntegration #SustainableInfrastructure #ASEANPowerGrid Green Grids Initiative (GGI) United Nations ESCAP Southeast Asia Energy Transition Partnership UNOPS ASEAN Centre for Energy
