An Analysis of Technology Need Assessments

As a contribution to the Partnership, GTZ has analyzed all 51 transport chapters out of 71 Technology Need Assessments (TNA), available on the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change (UNFCCC) webpage. They were submitted mainly between 2000 and 2005.

The analysis gives interesting insights: Other than the UNFCCC TNA Handbook suggests, not only “hard”, vehicle-related technologies, but public transport and urban planning skills play an important role for a sustainable, low carbon development in developing countries. The short paper also suggests how to best consider transport in TNAs. Get the 4-page fact-sheet here and check your country’s performance and needs!
