Join Climate Finance Asia for the launch of “Coal Power Phase-Out in Asia” book, edited by our Chief Economist Prof. Farhad Taghizadeh-Hesary and published by World Scientific.

The book examines how Asian economies can accelerate the transition away from coal-fired power while maintaining energy security, economic stability, and social inclusion.

Drawing on evidence from Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Japan, and China, the book highlights key challenges, including financing risks, long-term power purchase agreements, and policy uncertainty, and explores practical solutions through innovative finance, policy reforms, and just transition measures.

The webinar will bring together the editor and contributors to share key findings, country experiences, and practical pathways toward a fair, inclusive, and economically viable coal power phase-out across Asia.
