Finance and Governance for a Viet Nam's Just Energy Transition
A 2022 report which highlights the analysis needed to capitalize on the largest benefits of the transition while minimizing costs. [Originally posted at https://www.undp.org/vietnam/publications/finance-and-governance-viet-nams-just-energy-transition]
Just Energy Transition: Opportunities and Challenges for Vietnam
A 2019 paper which summarizes the researches’ findings on power development scenarios and analyzing just energy transition parameters in Vietnam. It proposes policies for the post 2020 period on social-economic development, on Power Development Plan VIII, on fighting against climate change, and on improving science, technology and job orientation for Vietnam’s decision and policy makers.

Low-Carbon Energy, Sustainable Development, and Justice: Towards a Just Energy Transition for the Society and the Environment
A 2020 paper which establishes a conceptual linkage between “sustainable development”, “low-carbon energy transitions” and “energy justice” and examines social priorities to address peoples' competing priorities associated with low-carbon energy interventions.

Prospects for a Socially Just Energy Transition in Viet Nam: 2021 and Beyond
A 2021 paper which is an update of a 2017 publication written for the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES) in Viet Nam on a Socially Just Energy Transition in Viet Nam. This energy transition must deliver a large part of Viet Nam’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions mitigation, provide access to clean energy for all, and create opportunities for decent jobs and micro-businesses for the rural poor, women and ethnic minorities.

A Just Energy Transition in Southeast Asia: The Impact of Coal Phase-Out on Jobs
A 2022 report which focuses on ensuring a 'just transition' while phasing out coal in line with the ILO Guidelines for a Just Transition towards Environmentally Sustainable Economies and Societies for All. The report suggests that in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Viet Nam, job losses due to mine closures in coal-dependent regions and the loss of indirect jobs in their industrial ecologies will have a profound negative effect on the labour markets, economies, and livelihoods of local communities.

Guiding Principles & Lessons Learnt For a Just Energy Transition in the Global South
A 2017 study which provides an overview of the different 'just transition', energy transformation and climate justice discourses of the previous years and how they are ultimately reflected in the Paris Agreement. It shows how they overlap in terms of transition narratives and policy demands. [Originally posted at https://library.fes.de/pdf-files/iez/13955.pdf]

Hot Reports

Covid-19 and a Just Transition in India's Coal Mining Sector The COVID 19 pandemic hit India hard in early 2020, with negative GDP growth and a surge in unemployment. In the energy sector, coal fired power generation was already under pressure from overcapacity, low electricity demand growth, and increasingly competitive renewables.
Considerations for a Just and Equitable Energy Transition As the energy transition accelerates, it is our responsibility, it is our opportunity, to ensure that in addition to contributing to a healthy planet by replacing fossil fuels with clean energy sources, this is accomplished in a just and equitable manner providing prosperity for all.
