Beyond Coal: Expanding Transition Credits to Dispersed Energy Solutions for a Just Future

This whitepaper makes the case to expand transition finance beyond coal to include the phase-out of diesel and other dispersed fossil fuel generators, often the primary power source for households, SMEs and vulnerable communities. It shows how high-integrity transition credits, when linked to Just Transition principles, can unlock cleaner, cheaper, healthier energy solutions while improving livelihoods, public health and energy access.
