Clean technology manufacturing is a rapidly expanding sector that governments and firms worldwide are eager to carve out their roles in. As policymakers devise new industrial strategies to enhance energy security and combat climate change, there is a growing sense of urgency to embrace clean technology manufacturing. In response to this request, the Energy Technology Perspectives Special Report was prepared to assist decision-makers in developing and evaluating their strategies for this sector.
The report outlines guiding principles to inform future planning in clean technology manufacturing. These principles recognize that a one-size-fits-all approach is not feasible, and instead provide tailored guidance for different countries and regions. The report was prepared in response to a request from G7 Leaders in 2023 and draws on insights gathered during a High-level Dialogue on Diversifying Clean Technology Manufacturing held at the IEA headquarters in Paris in November of the same year. Additionally, the report leverages analysis conducted as part of the latest edition of the IEA’s flagship technology publication, Energy Technology Perspectives, as well as two Special Briefings on clean technology manufacturing throughout 2023.
