Energy transition and resilient cities
FFEM has long supported the energy transition in developing countries. Our objective is to contribute to climate change mitigation and socio economic development through sustainable and affordable access to energy. We also seek to adapt cities to climate change and improve people’s living conditions.
OUR ACTION TODAY
The FFEM’s work in this area falls under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, which give equal weight to adaptation and mitigation. The FFEM also seeks to create synergies through implementation of the Montreal Protocol and the Kigali Amendment by promoting improved energy efficiency in the cooling sector. To do so, the FFEM address the energy transition and adaptation of cities and territories.

A multidisciplinary approach
Human activities, particularly in urban areas, contribute to climate change as well as the loss of biodiversity and agricultural land. The energy transition and electric mobility play a critical role in reducing GHGs, but can also generate pollution and waste, with major impacts on the health of humans and ecosystems. To effectively respond to these challenges, the FFEM believes they must be addressed simultaneously. We therefore support projects in the fields of urban and territorial planning and development, energy access, and urban agriculture that take into account the convergence of climate, biodiversity and pollution.
