THE LOW CARBON TECHNOLOGY PARTNERSHIPS INITIATIVE

T he Low Carbon T echnology Partnerships Initiative (LCT Pi) supports businesses who want to be in pole position for success in a low- carbon future. It provides a collaborative platform for private and public stakeholders to discuss solutions to accelerate low-carbon technology development, and scale up the deployment of business solutions, to a level and speed that are consistent with limiting global warming to below 2°C.

At COP21 in Paris in December, the LCT Pi will announce the launch of key public- private technology partnerships as well as company and sector actions to implement the solutions.
