CLASP is the leading global authority on appliances’ role in fighting climate change and improving people's lives.

To control emissions and provide universal access to critical services like cooling and cooking, the global community must urgently prioritize energy-efficient and affordable appliances.

Later is too late.

 


Climate Change Mitigation

CLASP has solutions to the global climate emergency. Our landmark Net Zero Heroes report showed that the appliances sector accounts for nearly 40% of global energy-related CO2 emissions. Improving appliance efficiency is a proven, cost-effective solution to slash emissions.

CLASP’s innovative, user-friendly policy toolkit offers customized support to help over 160 countries reduce emissions by including appliance efficiency in their climate action plans.


Clean Energy Access

Millions of people lack access to the essential appliances that drive productivity and enhance lives. CLASP’s work brings life-changing, efficient appliances to the world’s poorest people, including those in off- and weak-grid areas.
