The Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy prepares biennial reports to the United Nations on the UK’s progress in tackling climate change, which include an assessment of the technical and financial support that HMG provides to other countries to assist them to deploy clean energy. The most recent report can be found on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) website: http://unfccc.int/files/national_reports/biennial_reports_and_iar/submitted_biennial_reports/application/pdf/20151218_uk_biennial_report_2_web_accessible.pdf. Chapter 5 sets out an overview of the financial and technical support provided and Table 7 in Annex 1 provides details of individual projects.
