Book Synopsis The Making of the International Solar Alliance by : Vyoma Jha
Download or read book The Making of the International Solar Alliance written by Vyoma Jha and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-30 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first empirical account on the making of the International Solar Alliance (ISA). Announced jointly by India and France on the first day of the Paris climate talks in 2015, the ISA was conceived as a coalition of 'solar-rich' countries located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn for optimal absorption of the sun's rays. Crucially, these 'solar-rich' countries are developing countries with poor or no energy access; witness almost three hundred sunny days in a year; have large agrarian populations; and face major gaps in the potential solar manufacturing ecosystem. In a little over two years, the ISA—led by India and backed primarily by developing countries—became a legal entity. With no perceivable competitive advantage in solar manufacturing or technologies, what explains India's relative success in bringing together countries to form this new international organization? What was the role of France in the creation of ISA? Why did India insist on a treaty structure for the new institution? Were any countries opposed to this? What are the transaction costs of bringing the 'solar rich' countries vis-à-vis the 'solar poor' countries on board? Responding to these questions, the book draws on the political economy approach to analyse the motivations for India to steer a new treaty-based international organization. It presents the empirical evidence and arguments using three frames: process, politics, and players. Ultimately, the book illustrates a new kind of Indian economic diplomacy, making the ISA the first deliberate instrument of India's foreign policy on climate change and energy.

Book excerpt: The International Solar Alliance (ISA) formed in 2015 to serve as a collaborative platform for increasing solar energy technology deployment worldwide. Currently, the ISA includes more than 65 signatory countries that are working with global partners to improve their access to affordable and reliable clean energy. In support of ISA member countries, the U.S. Department of Energy and the Australian Government's Department of Environment and Energy selected the Clean Energy Solutions Center (Solutions Center) to help mobilize private investment in solar technologies associated with this global effort. The Solutions Center is partnering with ISA selected partners to provide a range of technical assistance services, training programs, and other capacity building resources. The U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory serves as the operating agent for the Clean Energy Solutions Center. The International Solar Alliance is Headquartered in India where the National Institute of Solar Energy serves as interim Secretariat.
Book Synopsis India's Moment in the Sun by : Vyoma Jha
Download or read book India's Moment in the Sun written by Vyoma Jha and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, leading up to the Paris Climate Conference, India faced intense scrutiny over its role in either securing or scuttling a global climate deal. On the first day of the climate talks India and France jointly announced the International Solar Alliance (ISA), and the two weeks of hectic negotiations culminated in the adoption of the Paris Agreement. In less than two years, even as multilateral climate negotiations were weakening with the United States announcing its withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, the ISA -- led by India and backed primarily by developing countries -- became a legal entity. This dissertation presents a case study of the creation of the ISA as a treaty-based international organization. Drawing on the political economy approach in the study of international law, this case study identifies the politics, players and process behind the making of the ISA. It uses mixed methods to analyze the politico-legal issues over the need for a new treaty-based international organization. The dissertations finds that the changing political leadership in India -- Narendra Modi became Prime Minister in 2014 -- marked a shift in domestic climate politics, particularly around solar energy. Modi's vision for a new, India-led global effort on solar energy was the primary driver behind the creation of the ISA. In the backdrop of multilateral climate negotiations, the political leadership empowered India's new international rulemaking stance. This dissertation presents an in-depth account of the treaty-making process to argue that it marks an innovation in the structure of international organizations. The ISA is best described as 'soft law in a hard shell', that is it uses the legal infrastructure of a treaty while relying on the social structure of participating actors for its future implementation. Empirical evidence suggests that three factors explain the treaty structure of the ISA: India's leadership role in the treaty-making process, the early involvement of non-state actors, and the preference of developing countries for legal form. Ultimately, the case illustrates a new kind of Indian economic diplomacy, making the ISA the first deliberate instrument of India's foreign policy on climate change and energy.

Download or read book Politics Of Climate Change: Crises, Conventions And Cooperation written by Reena Marwah and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2020 was a watershed event in the history of climate change politics. It marked the end of the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol and the beginning of the ambitious Paris Agreement. It was also the year of the pandemic, where the disruption caused severe implications on a global scale. The pandemic also brought before the world the severity and scale of the transboundary challenges in a globally interconnected world. It exposed the weaknesses of the global institutions and governance structures in tackling the complex and imminent threat of climate change.As states prepare for the future of global climate change negotiations post the COP26 event of 2021, there has been a significant shift in the politics of climate change at all levels. The negotiations took place in the shadows of the pandemic, which has challenged the political lethargy and non-committal attitudes of states on the climate change question.Unlike in the past, climate change is now a hot issue on the political high tables. It has also spilled outside these negotiating spaces and into the public sphere. Whether it is the school strikes led by children or the indigenous struggles of marginalized populations, the politics of climate change today is far more diverse, representative, and active. At the same time, we can witness the shifts in the state's understanding of the problem, which is actively inquiring about its security and geopolitical dimensions. The boundaries between traditional and non-traditional threats to security are getting blurred as climate change, and its myriad impacts wreak havoc on ecosystem resilience, the state's welfare capacity, and people's everyday lives.Hence, this volume seeks to decipher the nature of global climate change politics in the post-pandemic and climate insecure world. Who will be its main actors, main stakeholders, and losers? How will questions of equity, sustainability, and finance interplay at the COP26 event and thereafter? How will developing and poor countries engage with the issue in the next phase of climate politics? Finally, how will the ambition of the Paris Agreement, which is reflected in the language of net-zero targets and the two degrees Celsius temperature goals, be brought into action?
