NDC Status

Grenada submitted its second NDC in November 2020.

Key highlights from the NDC
  • In its updated NDC, Grenada confirms the same emission reduction target as the first one (a 40% reduction of the 2010 emissions levels by 2030) and commits to communicate any additional commitments via its Biennial Transparency Report.
  • The country included mitigation co-benefits from the National Adaptation Plan (namely in the forestry and water sectors), as well as F-gases and a new sector (Industrial Processes and Product Use). It also considers new areas such as women, children and youth, disaster risk reduction, health, and loss and damage.
  • This new NDC highlights linkages to the Sustainable Development Goals, Aichi Targets and Green Recovery in light of COVID-19.
  • It was facilitated through extensive consultations with local stakeholders across a variety of sectors. However, notably, it doesn’t elaborate on an adaptation component.
