The international network that helps countries transition away from coal with confidence
An alliance of governments, business, finance, and experts – built to help countries transition from coal to clean power with confidence, finding solutions that work for their specific economic and political realities.
How the PPCA supports transitioning away from coal
The Alliance connects coal-dependent countries with the support they need to deliver the coal transition with greater confidence, helping them increase energy security and economic growth while addressing climate risks.
Bespoke support
A trusted space where governments, financial institutions and technical experts work together to design transition solutions that reflect each country or region’s specific needs.
Knowledge transfer
Real-world experience, translated into practical guidance. The PPCA draws on the knowledge of governments and organisations at the forefront of coal transition to help others navigate the same challenges – faster and with greater confidence.
An international voice
A seat at the table for both coal-dependent countries and their international partners, ensuring that the support and frameworks being developed internationally reflect the realities of those doing the work on the ground.
Recognition and credibility
Enabling countries and partners to highlight transition progress globally, building the credibility with institutions and investors that turns ambition into action.
A global alliance working to ensure that no country has to navigate the coal transition alone.
With a membership of over 60 national governments, 50 sub-nationals and 60 private sector organisations, the PPCA offers the partnerships and credibility coal-dependent countries need to enable the transition, while building the collective expertise to ensure international support delivers real results.
Morocco
In 2025, Morocco committed to phase out coal power by 2040, ‘subject to adequate international support’ – a key milestone after joining the PPCA in 2023. The PPCA continues to offer bespoke support to countries like Morocco to help them turn their ambition into delivery.
Republic of Korea
By joining the PPCA, the Republic of Korea made its first official coal phase-out commitment. The PPCA supports its members in accelerating the transition in a way that leaves no one behind and increases economic growth and energy security.
Honduras
With Honduras’ commitment not to build any new coal plants – made when joining the PPCA – we have helped end new coal power projects in Latin America. The PPCA works to encourage countries to commit to No New Coal.
