The Asian Development Bank (ADB) released its draft energy policy, which states that the institution “will not finance any new coal-fired capacity for power and heat generation or any facilities associated with new coal generation.

But while their new energy policy puts the brakes on coal financing, it still opens doors for fossil gas development.
