ABOUT THE ORGANIZERS
The Climate Group is an award-‐winning, international non-‐profit with offices in Greater China, North America, India and Europe. Our goal is to help leaders transition to a prosperous low carbon economy, driven by the rapid scale-‐up of clean and renewable energy. We work in partnership with the world’s most influential business, state, regional, finance and civil society leaders. For over a decade we have worked to demonstrate the economic and business case for the low carbon economy, and create the political conditions necessary for a strong global framework that addresses climate risks and maximizes climate opportunities. The global climate deal, which has been struck at the Paris COP, represents a new beginning: the chance to accelerate our low carbon future. We are working with governments, businesses and investors to implement the Paris Agreement, holding them to account where appropriate through reporting mechanisms, and ensuring we bend the emissions curve downwards to secure a thriving, clean economy for all.
Clean Energy Access Network (CLEAN) is an all India representative organization launched in 2014 with a clear mandate to support, unify and grow the decentralized clean energy sector in India. It access for the rural and urban poor and create an inspiring model for countries around the world to follow. CLEAN is technology agnostic. Technologies include solar, wind, bioenergy, pico hydro. The scale of its members’ operation ranges from pico solutions to larger, decentralized solutions and they are mostly small and medium enterprises. CLEAN recognizes that off-‐grid energy solutions move beyond bridging the energy gap by addressing lighting, cooking, pumping needs and so on to positively affects outcomes in education, health and agriculture and enhances livelihood opportunities. Decentralised clean energy has an impact on the overall quality of life.
