Session Summary

1. Mr. Hiroyuki Tezuka

• The technology is a key to reconcile economic growth an emission reduction and we can reduce global GHG emission reduction dramatically in the long-run by developing and disseminating low-carbon technologies.
• Keidanren’s Action Plan for CO2 emission reduction and Commitment to a Low Carbon Society. pointed the thing in common between the PDCA cycle in the Keidanren’s action plan and a “pledge and review” approach incorporated by the Paris Agreement.

2. Mr. Wataru Matsumura

• Japanese Government is seeking the international cooperation for global warming prevention as well as domestic activities for the prevention.
• For example, Japanese technologies for electric supply stabilities in India, which corresponds to large-scale introduction of solar power system in the economy, has been transferred. Saudi Arabia is "carbon offset" by the utilization of low-carbon technologies.
• It is thus recognized that "Co-innovation" with developing countries in terms of emission reduction is one of the best ways of the contribution to emission reduction all over the world.

3. Mr.Tony Fullelove

• Monash University strives to achieve Net Carbon Emission ZERO in 2030
• The target is achievable for Monash through four pillars of decarbonisation:
  ①Energy Efficiency②Renewable Gen.③Electrification④Carbon or renewable emission offset.
• Monash is leading the new energy era by building and connecting smarter and cleaner energy infrastructure to create an on-campus MICROGRID.

4. Mr.Jukka Uosukainen

• CTCN ,UNFCCC Technology Mechanism, is established in order to match developing country needs for climate technologies with global expertise.
• Key messages are as follows;
  1. Technology innovation is only part of the successful technology transfer process - links to policy, finance and markets are required
  2. Strong need for local adaptation of technologies and First-to-Market approaches
  3. Targeted technology partnerships
  4. Support for Endogenous technologies and capacities

5. Panel discussion

• At first, each panelist commented on others speeches. For example, Mr. Uosukainen highly evaluated the voluntary initiatives of Japan industries and further cooperation of them about a technology transfer to LDC.
• Mr. Matsumura notified that there are two types of technology ; established one and not established one and that both are necessary for global warming prevention.

Key Messages

1. In this event, the present situations and problems of 4 organizations were indicated; Japan industries, government, university, and organizations of promoting the technology transfer to LDCs.
2. The most important point of view is to seek and develop the project, in any case, as that of business cases.
3. Technology transfer should be based on needs in LDC and adopted, referring to an market-oriented consideration(F2M) for continuous development.
