This Country Planning Framework (CPF) sets the strategic direction for the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) in Peru over the period 2017-2021.
Peru’s rapid economic growth in the last decade has consolidated its status as an upper-middle income country. To this end, the Government of Peru has committed to ambitious green growth goals that seek to reconcile economic development with the imperative of improving the livelihoods of its citizenry and sustainably managing its natural resource base and rich biodiversity. In 2015, the Government commissioned GGGI to undertake a Green Growth Potential Assessment (GGPA), which highlighted three major areas with high-impact potential for achieving Peru’s green growth vision: sustainable landscapes, water, and energy.
Based on this context, the CPF for the period 2017-2021 has three strategic outcomes:

The cost of existing environment-friendly technologies, such as wind turbines and SO2 scrubbers, needs to be brought down so that they can be deployed on a large scale, while fundamental research needs to advance on the frontiers of technologies such as smart grids or energy storage.
Placing Indonesia’s economy onto a green and sustainable development pathway, as envisaged in the National Long Term Development Plan, will require a large mobilization of investment.
