On Thursday, 11 May 2017, the event, ‘Scaling Up Green Energy Finance: Swapping Fossil Fuel Subsidies for Sustainable Energy Solutions, was presented by the IISD Global Subsidies Initiative (GSI), the Government of Denmark, the Nordic Council of Ministers (NCM) and the Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform (FFFSR) in Bonn.

This video by IISD Reporting Services provides an overview of the event. The event focused on how governments can scale up investments in green energy by “making the switch” from fossil fuel subsidies to sustainable energy subsidies.
