CPI will support Power Foundation&#8217;s research endeavours to support India\u2019s transition to a sustainable energy future, help further renewable energy, and push for directing international climate finance into the country. CPI will provide support for training and capacity-building exercises. The MOU provides an overarching framework for collaboration between the parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MoU was signed in the presence of Shri Sanjiv Nandan Sahai, Director General of Power Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proposed areas of collaboration include deployment of distributed renewable energy (roof-top solar and off-grid solar), convening relevant stakeholders, and providing necessary logistic support for training and capacity building efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the signing ceremony, Dr. Dhruba Purkayastha, Director of CPI India, said, &#8220;At Climate Policy Initiative, our aim is to support central and state governments towards transitioning to a sustainable energy future in India. We look forward to CPI contributing significantly to Power Foundation&#8217;s efforts to support India\u2019s initiatives directed towards meeting its NDC targets along the Low Carbon Development Strategy submitted to UNFCCC. Our area of focus will include research and analysis, capacity building exercises, stakeholder engagements, and supporting distributed renewable energy deployment.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Sambit Basu, Director (Programs) &amp; Chief Energy Economist of Power Foundation, added, &#8220;We are delighted to collaborate with Climate Policy Initiative India Private Limited in our mission to promote sustainable energy solutions in India. This collaboration will enable us to leverage CPI&#8217;s on-the-ground experience in renewable energy and climate finance and expand our capabilities to address the challenges of the power sector transformation in a more effective and efficient manner. We are excited to work with CPI and look forward to a fruitful partnership.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MOU signed between CPI and Power Foundation reinforces each organization\u2019s commitment to a sustainable energy future in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Climate Policy Initiative India Private Limited<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Climate Policy Initiative is an analysis and advisory organization with deep expertise in finance and policy.
