The Just Transition Transaction: A Developing Country Coal Power Retirement Mechanism

September 2021 | Publications, Reports and Briefing Notes

The Just Transition Transaction (JTT) is a prototype coal retirement mechanism for South Africa aimed at de-risking the power sector for affordable decarbonisation and supporting affected coal communities. Structured as a large multi-lateral sovereign-backed concessional loan to the South African sovereign, the JTT is predicated on realised, Paris-aligned mitigation. A Just Transition Fund catalyses a holistic coal region rejuvenation programme.
