The United Kingdom is progressing work to integrate the Energy Transition Council (ETC) into the Global Clean Power Alliance (GCPA) Finance Mission, to enhance and streamline our offer to partner countries. Launched in the lead up to COP26, the ETC brings its significant experience in supporting Emerging Market and Developing Economies on clean energy transitions through practical, country-focused engagement and the provision of technical assistance.
The British Embassy Vientiane hosted a National Dialogue on the Clean Energy Transition on 25 February 2026, co-hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, the Energy Transition Council (ETC) and the UK Aid-funded Climate Compatible Growth (CCG) Programme.
The ETC facilitates donor and development agencies’ coordination to support partner countries’ clean energy transition. In 2023, we convened in-country working groups in Egypt, India, Lao PDR and the Philippines to progress country support on various themes and to streamline the technical assistance offers from donors in these countries.
