Global Coal to Clean Power Transition Statement, acknowledging that coal generation is the single biggest cause of global temperature increase.
On the 4th of November 2021 at the Conference of the Parties (CoP26), seventy-eight signatories from an array of nations, subnations and organizations, put their signatures to a commitment which noted that coal power generation is the single biggest cause of global temperature increases, recognize the imperative to urgently scale-up the deployment of clean power to accelerate the energy transition.
They are committing to work together to make clean power the most affordable and accessible option globally, with ensuing economic and health benefits as the world builds back better from the COVID pandemic.
Their shared vision is to accelerate a transition away from unabated coal power generation, as is essential to meet their shared goals under the Paris Agreement, in a way that benefits workers and communities and ensures access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all by 2030.
Recognizing that countries, workers, and communities in the developing world require support to transition from coal and realize a sustainable and economically inclusive energy future, and that international co-operation will be needed to provide such support.
How does this include Sprouter Energy? Many of the countries which will be transitioning away from coal will have a large work force which needs to be repurposed into renewable energy projects. Sprouter Energy looks to work in these communities, providing the opportunity to employ those formerly in the fossil fuel sector in green technologies.

The transition away from coal will also create and energy deficiency by removing a necessary energy carrier critical for heavy industry. Sprouter Energy can assist by creating green biomethane gas and green hydrogen as an equivalent energy carrier.
