(MENAFN) Energy security, electrification, grid infrastructure and sustainable transport took center stage Tuesday as the second day of the UN Climate Change Conference (COP31) got underway, with roughly 370 sessions on the official program.
Of that total, about 140 fall under the energy and transport theme, according to the conference schedule.
In the Blue Zone, the venue for official negotiations and high-level meetings, delegates are set to attend a ministerial meeting on the Azerbaijan-Kazakhstan-Uzbekistan green energy partnership. A panel discussion on green energy security and Ukraine’s energy transition is also scheduled.
Further Blue Zone sessions will tackle energy security in the face of geopolitical risks, ways to finance the energy transition, and the build-out of renewable energy infrastructure.
The Green Zone, which opened to visitors Monday, will meanwhile host debates on sustainable mobility, clean energy investment and industrial decarbonization. Among them is a session titled Redefining Sustainable Mobility, organized by Turkish electric carmaker Togg. The agenda also lists panels on sustainable aviation fuels, energy storage and the part artificial intelligence could play in sustainable mobility.
COP31 opened Monday with a focus on food, agriculture and health, drawing policymakers, international organizations, businesses and civil society representatives.
Running from Nov. 9 to 20 in Antalya, the conference aims to move forward global climate negotiations on emissions reductions, adaptation and financing.
