NEW DELHI: India and the United States of America (USA) launched a joint platform on Monday, September 15, and collaborated to mobilise finances and deploy clean technology for faster energy transmission. The platform named ‘Climate Action and Finance Mobilisation Dialogue (CAFMD)’ will help both the countries move towards decarbonisation in sync with their respective commitments to deal with climate change.
The sources said that the next course of action for USA will be to join the International Solar Alliance (ISA) and drive the world towards clean energy transmission.
