Abstract
This chapter aims to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of Low-Carbon Technology (LCT) from the perspective of Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) and its implications for regional cooperation. The chapter undertakes a Meta-Policy Analysis in order to determine the key LCTs that can significantly influence the INDC targets; determine if the transition to a low-carbon energy future by 2030 is economically feasible and viable under INDCs; and to determine how the regional and international cooperation could accelerate investments required for achieving the INDC targets.
