The Presidency of the 30th United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP30) shared this Friday (12), in an open meeting in Bonn, Germany, the central elements of the international Road Map proposed for the energy transition. Among the four defined premises is the need to assign different responsibilities to different social groups, minimizing impacts on communities and workers dependent on fossil fuels.

Scientists create panel to guide global energy transition. Presided over by Brazil, COP30 was held in Belém, Pará, in November last year, and intends to leave the guide for the energy transition as a legacy. The document will be launched before the 31st Climate Change Conference (COP31), in the city of Antalya, Türkiye, from 9 to 20 November. The results of a public consultation were presented in the German city, which gathered contributions for the plan, which seeks to replace fossil fuels in a fair, orderly and equitable manner. The idea is to accelerate the energy transition in this critical decade, in order to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. This threshold means that emissions will be absorbed in a lasting way by nature and by other measures to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, so that the concentration of this gas does not continue to increase. According to the COP30 Presidency, the Road Map will be guided by four main premises: "Reflect diverse national circumstances, including different levels of socioeconomic development, access to energy, dependence on fossil fuels, transition capacity, among others, without resorting to simplistic categorizations; “To be a non-prescriptive, flexible and practical implementation-oriented tool, creating momentum for national roadmaps and enabling nationally determined and country-specific trajectories”; "Propose a framework/set of principles that assesses countries' dependence on fossil fuels and readiness for transition in a multidimensional way, including energy, economic, institutional and social indicators"; ⁠"Incorporate just transition approaches, common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, inclusivity, health, gender, indigenous peoples and human rights, ensuring broad social acceptance and minimizing impacts on communities and workers dependent on fossil fuels." Also according to the COP30 Presidency, national and international barriers to the energy transition are divided into four major themes, each with specific issues to be addressed: economic and financial; technological and infrastructure; institutional and governance; social and political. Public consultation The proposal received contributions from 115 countries and 247 non-state actors. According to the COP30 Presidency, the level of engagement was above expectations for an initiative launched just six months ago. Consultations carried out so far indicate that the road map should focus less on uniform targets and more on the concrete obstacles that hinder the transition, such as fiscal dependence on oil, fossil fuel subsidies, access to finance, industrial development and the protection of workers and communities dependent on the sector.  The ambassador André Corrêa do Lago, president of COP30, recalled that the recent geopolitical crisis in the Middle East showed very clearly how fossil fuels are linked to vulnerabilities, and that it is necessary to deal with this on a global path. "The great advantage of implementation is that we have much more freedom to implement than to negotiate. Negotiation requires consensus; implementation is not", says the diplomat.
