Coal to Clean Credits

CURRENT INITIATIVE

Overview

The Rockefeller Foundation believes everyone deserves an energy abundant future. We are helping empower communities and countries around the world to make the best energy decisions for their people and their bottom lines. More and more countries and communities are transitioning to clean energy because it makes economic sense and brings health, security, and development benefits to individuals and nations. Supporting this shift requires cross-sector, cross-border collaboration to enable locally driven energy choices that lead to a more abundant and sustainable future. As part of this effort, The Rockefeller Foundation is supporting technical assessments that quantify the benefits of replacing coal power with clean energy solutions, where this brings clear benefits to projects and communities.
