Ep3: Sustainable agriculture, insights into a key challenge for both climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Ep5 - Youth Voice: The Sustainable Cooling and As-a-Service Nexus, or How to Scale up the Decarbonisation of Buildings

Cooling accounts for a significant share of building energy use. As global temperatures rise, innovative solutions like Cooling-as-a-Service (CaaS) offer a promising path forward. In this episode of ⁠The Big Shift: The Climate Finance (r)evolution, experts Dolf Eck, Dimitris Karamitsos, and Morten Stensli explore how CaaS is transforming the market. Learn how this servitisation model works in practice, its benefits for providers and end-users, and real-world success stories from those leading its implementation.

Ep4: The Role of ESCOs in Africa's Clean Energy Transition

Researcher Alana Valero and clean energy expert Dr Mohamed Alhaj dive into the recently released report "Integrate to Zero: The Role of Africa's ESCO Market" which explores customer-driven models that can increase the affordability of renewable energy in Africa. The discussion explores flagship examples such as servitisation, integrated technologies, and energy performance contracts and how they can impact the African energy market.

Ep3: Sustainable agriculture, insights into a key challenge for both climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Agriculture crucially needs to adapt to the effects of climate change. Do you know what can be done to save food while reducing CO2 emissions? BASE's expert, Celina Schelle, will give you a tour of the existing and potential solutions.

Ep2: Adapt and Thrive, stakes of building a resilient future and solutions to achieve it.

Climate adaptation is essential to safeguard people, communities, and ecosystems from the growing impacts of climate change. Guided by the principles of equity and justice, it must be integrated into decision-making at all levels. Join Veronica Corno, who has worked extensively on the adaptation needs of Pacific Island small states, as she discusses these challenges and explores available financing solutions.

Ep1: Mitigating the impact of climate change, a conversation on energy-efficiency & examples from Africa.

How can we unlock the potential of energy efficiency to reach the 1.5°C objective? Climate finance has immense potential to accelerate mitigation efforts, including the shift to energy efficiency. Aurélien Pillet, a seasoned Climate and Innovation Finance Specialist, talks about his long-standing experience in developing and implementing innovative business models that can boost the uptake of renewable energies and energy-efficient systems.
