Regional : Integrated High Impact Innovation in Sustainable Energy Technology (Cluster TA)
The proposed knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) will prepare energy system development scenarios, technology roadmaps and support the scale up of innovative energy technologies in developing member countries (DMCs). The TA is aligned with ADB's energy policy and will support DMCs in meeting the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) as part of the Paris Agreement on climate change. The TA is included in the management-approved Energy Sector Group work plan for 2018.

| Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | The SDGs encourage a transformative change in production systems, employment patterns, technologies, behaviors and lifestyles to enable poverty reduction and a transition towards low-emissions production and consumption. Access to reliable, clean and cost-effective energy remains a key development imperative for DMCs. By 2014, there were still 421 million people in Asia and the Pacific without access to electricity, most of this population live in remote areas and islands. With business as usual solutions such as national grid extension, centralized power generation, low-efficiency end use devices, DMCs will not gain the capacity to use the latest technology to achieve universal energy access or will meet such goals with much higher emissions. Innovations within the energy sector and from other sectors (i.e., information and communication technology or electric vehicles) may provide new opportunities to meet DMC energy sector needs faster, in a decarbonized manner and potentially leap-frog former energy sector development pathways. Innovative technologies and business models are needed to facilitate and manage transitions, and at the same time infrastructure investments must be 'future proofed with respect to rapid technological evolution as well as climate change. However, many DMCs have limited experience determining benefits and risks associated with innovative energy technologies and business models, and therefore often default to conventional approaches. DMCs may be reluctant to embrace cutting-edge technologies, given the unclear benefits of their utilization, potential downside risks, limited resources available and real or perceived higher costs. |

Project Data Sheets (PDS) contain summary information on the project or program. Because the PDS is a work in progress, some information may not be included in its initial version but will be added as it becomes available. Information about proposed projects is tentative and indicative.
The Access to Information Policy (AIP) recognizes that transparency and accountability are essential to development effectiveness. It establishes the disclosure requirements for documents and information ADB produces or requires to be produced.
The Accountability Mechanism provides a forum where people adversely affected by ADB-assisted projects can voice and seek solutions to their problems and report alleged noncompliance of ADB's operational policies and procedures.
In preparing any country program or strategy, financing any project, or by making any designation of, or reference to, a particular territory or geographic area in this document, the Asian Development Bank does not intend to make any judgments as to the legal or other status of any territory or area.
