摘要

2019冠状病毒病的经济影响导致亚洲五个最不发达国家(孟加拉国、柬埔寨、老挝人民民主共和国、缅甸和尼泊尔)的经济放缓和经济产出收缩,经济结构发生变化,资金流入减少。本政策简报根据联合国的最不发达国家毕业程序,以及这些国家在实现国家自主贡献(NDCs)和与环境相关的可持续发展目标(sdg 7、12和13)时面临的挑战,讨论了这些影响。孟加拉国、老挝人民民主共和国和缅甸的经济放缓以及柬埔寨和尼泊尔的经济产出萎缩加剧了五个最不发达国家的贫困,并对这些国家农村地区的生物质资源造成了压力。这些最不发达国家经济结构的变化威胁到其经济现代化进程的逆转,正在破坏二十年来在有效利用自然资源和相应减少单位国内生产总值温室气体排放方面取得的进展。汇款、外国直接投资和官方发展援助等资金流入的减少也对可再生能源发电和低温室气体排放技术的进一步投资的短期和长期前景构成风险。本政策简报建议制定以技术干预为目标的政策,并鼓励不太容易受到COVID-19等外部冲击的微观经济和宏观经济影响的小规模可再生能源技术。

Resource-efficient and renewable energy transition in the five least developed countries of Asia: a post-COVID-19 assessment
Abstract The economic fallout from COVID-19 resulted in an economic slowdown and a contraction in economic output, changed economic structures, and reduced financial inflows in the five least developed countries (LDCs) of Asia – Bangladesh, Cambodia, Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR), Myanmar, and Nepal. This policy brief discusses these impacts in light of the LDC-graduation procedures of the United Nations together with the challenges that these countries face meeting their nationally determined contributions (NDCs) and the environment-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 7, 12, and 13). The economic slowdown in Bangladesh, Lao PDR, and Myanmar and a contraction in economic output in Cambodia and Nepal has increased poverty in the five LDCs and is putting pressure on biomass resources in the rural areas of these countries. The change in the structures of their economies, which threatens to reverse processes of economic modernization in these LDCs, is undermining two decades of progress regarding the efficient use of natural resources and the associated reduction in greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions per unit of gross domestic product (GDP). A decline in financial inflows such as remittances, foreign direct investment, and official development assistance (ODA) is also a risk to both short- and long-term prospects of further investment in renewable energy generation and low GHG-emissions technologies. This policy brief suggests policies that target technical interventions and incentivize small-scale renewable energy technologies that are less susceptible to microeconomic and macroeconomic impacts from external shocks such as COVID-19.

期刊介绍: Sustainability: Science, Practice and Policy is a refereed, open-access journal which recognizes that climate change and other socio-environmental challenges require significant transformation of existing systems of consumption and production. Complex and diverse arrays of societal factors and institutions will in coming decades need to reconfigure agro-food systems, implement renewable energy sources, and reinvent housing, modes of mobility, and lifestyles for the current century and beyond. These innovations will need to be formulated in ways that enhance global equity, reduce unequal access to resources, and enable all people on the planet to lead flourishing lives within biophysical constraints. The journal seeks to advance scientific and political perspectives and to cultivate transdisciplinary discussions involving researchers, policy makers, civic entrepreneurs, and others. The ultimate objective is to encourage the design and deployment of both local experiments and system innovations that contribute to a more sustainable future by empowering individuals and organizations and facilitating processes of social learning.
