'Toward a Low-Carbon and Just Energy Transition in Developing Asia' explores the large-scale benefits of the decarbonization of coal-fired power plants. It examines opportunities for reducing direct carbon emissions, such as measures on retiring existing coal-fired power plants and halting the construction of new ones.

The book presents innovative approaches, practical case studies, and targeted policy recommendations for advancing a just transition away from coal in developing Asia and the Pacific. It underscores the need to align socioeconomic and sustainability objectives for the region’s energy transition to be inclusive, resilient, and durable.

Editors: Dina Azhgaliyeva, Alfredo Baño Leal, and Bo Shen
