The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. 

Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an intergovernmental organisation committed to advancing security of energy supply, economic growth and environmental sustainability through energy policy co-operation. The IEA operates as an autonomous body within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Both the IEA and the OECD seek opportunities to work with an increasing number of non-members of growing importance to the world economy (countries beyond IEA). The Agency aims to foster the contribution of the energy sector to economic development and environmental sustainability across the globe.

The Clean Energy Transitions Programme (CETP) has grown to be the IEA’s largest (at EUR 20 million a year) and, arguably, most important programme. The CETP has leveraged IEA Members’ clean energy commitment and the extensive expertise of the IEA to support and accelerate global clean energy transitions, particularly in major emerging economies.

The CETP provides cutting-edge technical and policy support to governments whose energy policies will significantly impact the speed of, and prospects for, a global transition towards a more sustainable and inclusive energy system – notably Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and South Africa, and at regional level in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.

Some recent successes have included supporting the analysis underpinning Indonesia’s USD 20 billion Just Energy Transitions Partnership (JETP), China’s 14th five-year plan for renewable energy development, training thousands of professionals, plus enabling engagement with the highest levels of government to provide the political will for the needed energy transitions.

 As one part of CETP, the IEA provides a breadth of analysis and policy advice to its member and Association countries across multilateral fora, notably the G7 and G20 with a range of presentations, reports and outcome documents for official, Ministerial and Leader-level meetings.

The IEA’s is increasingly called upon to support progress on global issues like energy security, clean energy transition, energy finance/investment and climate change. Effective IEA planning and coordination with the Presidency and across the IEA teams to support these multilateral fora is increasingly important for the Secretariat.
