Mid-Term Review of the Danish Voluntary Contribution to the International Energy Agency for the Clean Energy Transitions Programme 2021-2025

PEMconsult was contracted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to conduct a mid-term review to evaluate and appraise Denmark’s involvement in the International Energy Agency’s Clean Energy Transitions Programme (CETP) for 2021-2025. In 2021, Denmark contributed DKK 50 million as a Voluntary Contribution to the CETP. These contributions support the continuation of Denmark’s backing for the Energy Efficiency in Emerging Economies (E4) Programme within CETP, benefitting partner countries like Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa. Additionally, a part of the contribution is designated for broader CETP initiatives in China, India, and Indonesia. The management of the Danish Voluntary Contribution is a collaborative effort between the Danish Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Utilities (MCEU) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA). PEM was examining the progress against key indicators and made recommendations for potential adjustments.
