2. Ensure public, fair, and transparent energy
transition process with the consent of relevant parties, including enterprises,
employees, and inhabitants affected by the transition; improve efficiency and
effectiveness of just energy transition process.
3. Private investment serves an important role in
just energy transition process; resources from government and International
Partners Group (IPG) must lead technology transfer process, improve
administrative capacity and replacement clean energy. Resources originating
from Glasgow Financial Alliance for the goal of net “zero” emission and other
financial institutions are directly invested to enterprises instead of through
Governmental security.
