Request for Proposals – Short-term consultancy on reform fossil fuel subsidies and scale up renewables in transport

The transport and energy sectors are interlinked. To decarbonise economies, the transport and energy sectors need to align their strategies. A planned 6-8 page issues brief (paired with 6-8 country typology factsheets) will investigate how these sectors can collaborate more closely to make the radical change needed to phase out fossil fuels and scale up renewables to address climate change and improve human and planetary health.

These deliverables aim to provide an understanding of economic, social and policy opportunities that can equip policy makers to make a case for fossil fuel (FF) phase-out/renewable energy (RE) phase-in for transport, in national plans as well as in post-pandemic economic recovery packages.   The deliverables will focus on fossil fuel phase-out/renewable energy phase-in for transport in key country types in Asia (e.g. India, Indonesia, Marshall Islands, Uzbekistan) and other world regions, making use of insights and outcomes to equip policymakers with additional information and tools to achieve Paris Agreement targets and improve lives and livelihoods.
