This Energy Technology Perspectives Special Report is structured to provide decision makers with an analytical toolkit to design and evaluate their strategies for clean technology manufacturing. Acknowledging that there is no “one size fits all” approach, it lays out guiding principles that can help inform future planning. PAGE | 3 I EA. CC BY 4.0. This analysis was produced in response to a request from G7 Leaders in 2023. It benefits from the insights gathered during a High-level Dialogue on Diversifying Clean Technology Manufacturing held at the IEA headquarters in Paris in November 2023. It also builds on analysis conducted as part of the latest edition of the IEA’s flagship technology publication, Energy Technology Perspectives, and two Special Briefings on the topic of clean technology manufacturing during the course of 2023. Advancing Clean Technology Manufacturing An Energy Technology Perspectives Special Report Acknowledgements Acknowledgements This study was prepared by the Energy Technology Policy (ETP) Division of the Directorate of Sustainability, Technology and Outlooks (STO) of the International Energy Agency (IEA). The study was designed and directed by Timur Gül, IEA Chief Energy Technology Officer. Araceli Fernandez Pales, Head of the Technology Innovation Unit, provided strategic guidance throughout the development of the project. Peter Levi co-ordinated the analysis and production of the report. The lead authors (in alphabetical order) were: Simon Bennett (innovation), José Bermudez Menendez (electrolysers), Chiara Delmastro (heat pumps), Mathilde Fajardy (manufacturing costs), Alexandre Gouy (manufacturing costs), Carl Greenfield (policy), Mathilde Huismans (wind and data management), Teo Lombardo (batteries), Rafael Martinez Gordon (heat pumps), Faidon Papadimoulis (solar PV) and Francesco Pavan (electrolysers), and Chang Tan (manufacturing costs). Other key contributors were: Caleigh Andrews, Piotr Bojek, Johannes Hampp, Jean-Baptiste Le Marois and Biqing Yang. Per-Anders Widell and Anna Kalista provided essential support throughout the process. Lizzie Sayer edited the manuscript. Thanks also to the IEA Communications and Digital Office for their help, particularly to Jethro Mullen, Poeli Bojorquez, Curtis Brainard, Astrid Dumond, Merve Erdil, Grace Gordon, Julia Horowitz and Clara Vallois. Valuable comments and feedback were provided by other colleagues within the IEA, in particular Heymi Bahar, Alessandro Blasi, Laura Cozzi, Trevor Criswell, Tim Gould, Dennis Hesseling and Thomas Spencer. The analysis and findings in this report draw on strategic guidance and insights gathered during a High-level Dialogue on Diversifying Clean Technology Supply Chains in Paris in November 2023. The work could not have been achieved without the financial support provided by the Government of Japan. PAGE | 4 I EA. CC BY 4.0. Se
