Assessing the Asian Development Bank's progress on just energy transition

This fact sheet evaluates whether the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is driving a just, inclusive transition to 100% renewable energy — a process that shifts away from fossil fuels (including oil and gas), while ensuring equitable, democratic energy systems that prioritise human rights, social benefits, and ecological integrity.

We analysed 148 energy projects approved by the ADB between 2022 and 2024, totalling $8.85bn in investments, by examining publicly available ADB project documentation.
