Brazil’s 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30) Presidency released a roadmap for transitioning away from fossil fuels, while India refused to sign the COP31 Global Electrification Pledge.
The Roadmap for Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels (TAFF) focuses on reducing fossil fuel consumption, expanding clean energy and transforming fossil fuel-dependent economies.
India refused to sign the 35-by-35 Global Electrification Pledge, launched by Türkiye’s incoming COP31 Presidency, which aims to increase electricity’s share of global final energy consumption to 35% by 2035.
India reiterated its opposition to the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
India called for increased international climate finance to support developing countries; the Baku-to-Belém Roadmap aims to mobilise at least $1.3 trillion annually by 2035.
The COP30 roadmap is voluntary and does not establish new national targets or binding commitments.
