Emerging Emitters,by Stage of Economic Development 106ixForewordAll human and economic activities have an impact on the environment.Trade is no different.The production,movement,and consumption of goods and serviceswithin and across bordersis the foundation of modern society.This process brings us the energy that powers our homes and gets us to work each day.It delivers the food we need,the appliances we have come to depend on,and the medical supplies that help make us safer.Yet each stage of the process entails a fresh contribution to greenhouse gas emissions:trade undeniably exacerbates climate change.It is equally true that trade is disrupted by climate change.Extreme weather events often devastate transport and logistics infrastructure.These events erode capital stock,debilitate export capac-ity,damage agriculture,and disrupt food securityall with adverse consequences for long-term development outcomes.Trade,in short,is a critical node to mobilize if the world is to achieve green,resilient,and inclusive development in the coming years.As this report demonstrates,it is a central element of the solution to climate changebecause it has the potential to enhance mitiga-tion as well as adaptation efforts.First,trade can help shift production to areas with cleaner production techniques:as the world makes the transition to a low-carbon econ-omy,export comparative advantages will change,compelling countries to adapt and seize new opportunities.Second,trade promotes the spread of critical environmental goods and services that can help reduce emissions and improve environmental managementtoday,global trade in environmental goods is estimated at more than US$1 trillion annu-ally and is rising.Third,imports are critical to immediate recovery from a natural disaster,when essential items such as food and medicines are in short supply.In a world increas-ingly shaped by climate change,trade will be a crucial mechanism to address food inse-curity,support adaptation,and enable recovery from natural disasters.In the last decade,some developing countries have emerged as fast-growing emit-ters of greenhouse gases.The poorest countries,however,remain the smallest con-tributors to emissions.Yet they often suffer the most from climate change.Natural disasters disproportionately affect the most vulnerable people and the smallest firms.All developing countries therefore have an important stake in adapting to climate changeespecially in agriculture,which is central to food security,employment,and trade and is also the most sensitive to climate change.Tourism,the mainstay of the economy of many small island developing states,is also particularly sensitive to climate change.Diversifying away from sectors that are the most vulnerable to climate shocks will allow these economies to become more resilient over the long term.ForEwordxThe global community has an important role to play in greening trade.This report identifies several immediate trade policy measures that offer quick wins.Correcting the current bias in many countries tariff schedules toward imports of carbon-intensive“dirty”goods is one of them.Advanced economies can also support green trade liberal-ization of goods and services of high-priority interest to exporters in developing coun-tries.Multilateral negotiations should focus not only on tariffs on environmental goods but also on nontariff measures and regulations affecting servicesaccess to which is often vital for implementing the new technologies embodied in environmental goods.Enforceable rules should be created to ensure global discipline in the use of trade mea-sures that impede crisis responsesuch as export restrictions on food or medicine or restrictive intellectual property rights that prevent the diffusion of clean technologies to developing countries.The need for transparency and predictability in policies affecting trade is always pressing,but it is particularly urgent during a crisis.The least-developed countries also need to be at the multilateral negotiating table for matters involving trade and the environment.Policy makers in these countries have not paid much attention to trade policy as a tool for achieving environmental objectives.By contributing to the rules governing environmental trade,they can ensure that their interestsespecially regarding capacity building and data collectionare duly consid-ered.They can help ensure that the standards set reflect the reality of production in these countries.All developing countries have much to gain by improving their policies on trade and the environment.Implementing ambitious nationally determined contributions(NDCs)to achieve climate goals,for example,can help them exploit new trade opportu-nities arising from the implementation of NDCs in other countries.Reaping the gains from emerging trade opportunities will also require developing countries to address their high costs of trade:doing so can make them both competitive and resilient in the long term.Lowering tariff and nontariff barriers on imports that embody new technologies can drive productivity growth and adaptation.The global community can help develop-ing countries adopt climate-smart agriculture and build capacity for trade-facilitation reforms.Mutual recognition agreements covering environmental goods and products can go a long way in helping exporters in developing countries meet the regulatory requirements of developed countries,thereby cutting time and costs.As countries formulate policies for recovery from the COVID-19(coronavirus)pandemic,the World Bank Group is supporting their efforts to embark on a green,resilient,and inclusive development path,setting the foundation for robust and sus-tainable growth and development in the longer run.The World Bank Group Climate Change Action Plan for 20212025 takes a whole of economy approach,focusing on policies to create the right enabling environment for climate action.Trade is an indispensable requirement for achieving the global development agenda.This report provides a timely review of critical issues involving green trade,laying out the key policy steps that countries can take to ensure that trade plays its full role in supporting the transition to a low-carbon future.Mari PangestuManaging

both mitigation and adaptation.This report explores the ways in which trade and climate change intersect.In the process,it confronts several myths concern-ing trade and climate change(as summarized in table ES.1).Trade exacerbates the emissions that cause global warming and is itself affected by climate change through changing comparative advantages.The report focuses on the impacts of,and adjust-ments to,climate change in low-and middle-income countries and how both the changing climate and the policy responses to address it will affect future trade opportunities.Low-and middle-income countries are at the heart of the nexus between trade and climate change,facing severe challenges but also opportunities in the transition to a low-carbon future.Trade-driven growth will be essential to eliminating extreme pov-erty;however,given existing structures of production,this growth will also drive increasing emissions.Both adaptation and the shift to a lower-carbon growth trajec-tory will be key challenges for the most vulnerable countries,which have the least resources and weakest capacity to adjust to a changing climate.An increasing body of analysis shows that low-carbon and climate-resilient growth can provide poverty reduction and human development outcomes superior to the current alternative.In this context,the World Bank Group is supporting countries to embark on a green,resilient,and inclusive development(GRID)path,in which trade must play a key role,especially as a conduit for making new low-carbon technologies available to low-and middle-income countries.Trade is increasingly being affected by extreme weather-related shocks such as storms,floods,and droughts,but it is often critical to the recovery from such events.Exports and imports are directly affected negatively when trade-related transportation and logistics infrastructure sustains significant damage.Longer-term adverse impacts arise from loss of life and injury of employees and damage to buildings,machinery,and so forth.These impacts are compounded when exporter contracts are canceled because companies cannot fulfill orders during the crisis.Food production is hit hard when extreme weather events prevent the planting or harvesting of main crops.Imports are critical to the immediate recovery from a natural disaster.Trade allows imports from unaffected countries to meet the crisis-induced shortage of supply in critical goods and services.Such imports are crucial to avoiding long-term negative development outcomes.For example,imports of food can prevent malnutrition and xviEXECUtIVE SUmmArYstunting of children,which affects their learning and productivity in later life.During reconstruction,imports provide the equipment,materials,and skills needed to rebuild the capital stock and transportation infrastructure.Climate change is also affecting traditional comparative advantages,specifically agriculture and tourism,which are of particular importance to many low-and middle-income countriesmore than industrial activities.The vulnerability of agricultural yields to climate threatens not just domestic food security but also the economic devel-opment of food-exporting countries and their ability to eliminate poverty.Yet out-comes are not always negative and vary across and within countries.Most studies of climate change and its impacts on agriculture have focused on crop production,but the effect of heat on labor productivity will also reduce agricultural output.In the trop-ics,the impacts of heat stress may be greater on humans than on adapted crops.With regard to tourism,climate change is increasingly undermining its role in driving TABLE ES.1 the trade and Climate Change myth BusterThe mythThe emerging realitytrade is bad for the environment.trade flows contribute to carbon emissions but are also a critical part of the solution to climate change for three major reasons:(1)trade shifts production to areas with cleaner production techniques;(2)trade promotes the spread of environmental goods and services necessary for transitioning to low-carbon production;and(3)trade delivers critical goods and services that are vital in periods of recovery from extreme weather events.trade is bad for climate change relative to domestically produced goods because of the emissions from international transportation.while the international transportation of goods and services is a source of emissions,other sources of carbon competitiveness along the value chain can more than offset its quantity of emissions.For example,fruits and vegetables produced in Africa using sunshine,manual labor,and natural compost may generate far fewer emissions than production in Europe requiring heated greenhouses,tractors,and manufactured fertilizer.Because they are not large emitters individually,the poorest countries do not need to play a major role in negotiating the rules on trade and environment.Collectively,low-and middle-income countries have been increasingly carbonizing over the last decade in pursuit of their development goals,and they need to be at the forefront of climate change adaptation and mitigation.Climate change will affect the poorest countries most severely,and contributing to the rules governing trade and the environment can help to ensure that their interests are considered properly.If a country gets its climate policy right,then the job is finished.trade and climate change policies intersect.trade reforms in the absence of appropriate climate change policies can have adverse impacts on emissions.when appropriate climate change policies are implemented,trade reforms ensure that goods and services are produced in the most(carbon)efficient location.there is no need to review tariffs from a climate change perspective.tariff structures are often biased in favor of dirty goods.Bringing tariffs on dirty goods in line with those on clean goods would make a significant contribution to reducing carbon emissions.the impacts of climate change will not be felt soon,so mitigation policies suffice for now.rising temperatures and changing patterns of precipitation are already affecting crop yields and traditional comparative advantages.mitigation is necessary,but not sufficient;adaptation will be critical,especially for poor countries.while nontariff barriers increase trade costs,they have little to do with climate change.nontariff barriers are a major constraint on trade in critical environmental goods.they also limit access to key products that will drive adaptation,such as seeds and fertilizers.delays at the border and in ports indirectly exacerbate the huge waste of food products,with the resulting cost of higher emissions for a given level of food consumption.Source:World Bank.xviiEXECUTIVE SUMMARYdevelopment and reducing poverty in vulnerable countries,such as small island devel-oping states.Substantial new opportunities are emerging for low-and middle-income coun-tries to diversify exports in a low-carbon global economy.While these countries face huge challenges in adapting to climate change,they will be able to benefit from natu-ral low-carbon advantages and the application of new,low-carbon technologies to increase their carbon competitiveness as traditional comparative advantages are undermined.In an increasingly climate changeafflicted world,trade will gain importance as a mechanism to address food insecurity,support adaptation,and enable recovery from extreme weather events.A trend toward deglobalization would compromise countries ability to drive down poverty and transition to low-carbon growth.In fact,opportuni-ties exist to reduce barriers to support the greening of trade and facilitate countries adjustment to changing comparative advantages.Such measures include the following:Review country tariffs and remove any bias toward dirty sectors Reduce restrictions on access to environmental goods and services and on envi-ronmentally preferable products;accelerate negotiations on these goods and ser-vices at the multilateral level Remove nontariff barriers and implement trade facilitation and logistics reforms to reduce delays at borders and along trade routes,especially to reduce food waste and so contribute to food security Work collectively to develop standards on the carbon emissions embodied in a product that capture the realities of measurement in low-and middle-income countries;scale up technical assistance and capacity building on carbon measure-ment techniques and traceability Reduce tariffs and nontariff barriers on agricultural inputs and facilitate access to new technologies for farmers through expedited procedures for releasing seeds and easier movement of agricultural specialists Use the tools available at the World Trade Organization to address the climate change emergency,such as a waiver for the trade-related aspects of intellectual property rights of green technologies.The use of export restrictions is particularly detrimental in a world marked by recurring climate disasters.Measures that reduce trade flows in countries less affected by a weather-related crisis undermine the efforts of countries battling an extreme weather event.These negative effects are increased in a world where specialization through trade and concentration of production in a few locations limit the options to substitute suppliers.Global food security is being increasingly compromised by the rising volatility of food supply at the country level as weather becomes more variable and uncertain.This report offers two main suggestions for addressing these challenges.First,enhance efforts to increase information,transparency,and monitoring on global markets for essential items,including food.Greater transparency and information sharing can help to limit panic-driven policy decisions and lead to more informed and coordinated responses that avoid damaging trade restrictions.Second,deepen cooperation at the regional and multilateral levels on trade issues that are critical for xviiiEXECUtIVE SUmmArYhealth and food security and provide effective disciplines regarding the use of export-restricting measures.It is critical to ensure that the interests of low-and middle-income countries are reflected in the design of trade measures introduced to reduce a countrys or a companys carbon footprint.Governments are planning to introduce taxes at the border to comple-ment domestic carbon taxes and prevent carbon leakage.Companies are also designing and implementing programs to demonstrate that they have reduced emissions along their value chains.There is no easy and commonly accepted way to calculate the carbon footprint of a product arriving at the border.Despite the difficulties,this calculation is required to tax the embedded carbon,as is information on carbon taxes(if any)already levied in the country of production.These programs face a range of practical implemen-tation problems beyond measuring carbon content,including sector coverage,scope of carbon measurement,when and which default values are used,and how countries can demonstrate their carbon competitiveness.These measures all determine the impact of the program on the trade of low-and middle-income countries.Measures to reduce carbon emissions will most heavily affect the countries that export fossil fuels and carbon-intensive products,but new opportunities will also arise in global value chains that are less carbon intensive.Measures to support climate miti-gation objectives,including carbon border adjustment mechanisms,will increase the importance of export and output diversification in countries reliant on exports of fossil fuels and carbon-intensive manufactures,such as metals and fertilizers.But opportuni-ties will arise for countries that can demonstrate carbon competitiveness in these man-ufacturing sectors.New opportunities will also arise as demand shifts to products that are less carbon intensive,such as electronics and other light manufacturing.But many low-and middle-income countries lack appropriate capacities to identify areas of car-bon competitiveness,and their firms are unable to measure and verify carbon reduc-tions for a given good or service.As a result,exports from low-and middle-income countries risk being taxed unfairly at the border,and their firms risk being excluded from international value chains.It is essential for low-and middle-income countries to understand the risks and opportunities for trade and development strategies associated with climate change.This report offers a trade and climate policy diagnostic template that can provide inputs to country climate and development reports and beyond,to facilitate a broad dialogue on(1)strengthening capacities to identify opportunities for carbon mitiga-tion that increase competitiveness,(2)investments in carbon measurement that are necessary to verify carbon competitiveness,and(3)trade policy and trade facilitation reforms that will support adaptation and access to essential technologies and techniques.This template brings together information on the trade and climate interlinkages at the country level to identify(a)key vulnerabilities in trade to rising temperatures,changing precipitation,and more frequent extreme weather events;(b)areas where trade can support mitigation and adaptation to a changing climate as well as emerging constraints;(c)regulatory gaps in the climate and trade policy environment;and(d)recommendations of climate-relevant trade policy options.xixAbbreviationsACCTS Agreement on Climate Change,Trade,and Sustainability AfCFTA African

important role in the emission of greenhouse gases that exacerbate climate change through its effects on the location and scale of production,consumption decisions,emissions from the interna-tional transporting of goods and services,and the transfer of technologies that may lead to lower emissions in production.Most recent estimates show that around a quar-ter of all global emissions are linked to international trade flows.While attention is currently focused on reducing emissions,it is increasingly recognized that the climate is already changing and that solutions to adapt to rising temperatures and more extreme weather events are urgently needed.According to the World Meteorological Organization(WMO),the summer of 2021 has seen intense and unprecedented heat waves,especially in the Northern Hemisphere.1 Additionally,the WMO reports that from 1970 to 2019,weather,climate and water hazards accounted for 50 percent of all disasters,45 percent of all reported deaths and 74 percent of all reported economic losses,with 91 percent of the deaths occurring in developing countries(WMO 2021b).Moreover,several climate economists have made projections and stressed the urgency of acting now,insisting that policy makers act in the coming decades,as these years represent a window of opportunity to develop smart and forward-looking adaptation policies.2 The poorest countries have not traditionally featured in the top list of carbon dioxide(CO2)emitters,but they will face,or are already facing,the most adverse consequences,and these consequences will impede their growth and develop-ment.China,the European Union,India,Japan,the Russian Federation,and the United States accounted for about 70 percent of global emissions in 2019,but low-and middle-income nations are especially vulnerable and on the receiving end of cli-matic distortions.From cross-country analysis,Dasgupta et al.(2011)find a significant increase in the exposure of these countries to climate-induced changes in sea-level rise and storm surges.Malawi annually lost up to 1.7 percent of its gross domestic product(GDP)between 2005 and 2010 owing to extreme climate events(Pauw,Thurlow,and van Seventer 2010),and up to 12 percent of the population in Lilongwe District could THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS2be vulnerable to food insecurity by the end of the century(Stevens and Madani 2016).In Pakistan,a 1C increase in temperature is estimated to lead to a substantial reduc-tion in net farm revenue each year(Shakoor et al.2011).The effects of climate change are not always negative,but governments need to ready themselves for the incoming adjustments and figure out how best to adapt.The main changes in climate will take the form of rising temperatures,changing patterns of precipitation,more frequent river floods,sea-level rise,melting ice caps,and other extreme weather conditionsall having a direct impact on how and what the world trades:how trade will be affectedthat is,over land,by plane,or by shipand what trade will be affected,particularly in response to changing comparative advantages and patterns of production.The consensus among climate change analysts is that rising temperatures will likely have a positive impact in colder areas,by boosting agricultural productivity,3 but will have a negative impact in hotter areas,especially in the tropics.A few studies have estimated positive changes,particularly in terms of transportation routes and transportation infrastructure(Heininen,Exner-Pirot,and Plouffe 2015).Arctic sea ice is already melting and opening new shipping routes,allowing ships with light icebreakers to navigate the Arctic Ocean more easily(Shiryaevskaya,Lombrana,and Tanas 2020).Within countries,the impacts of rising temperature and changes in rainfall patterns may be quite localized.For example,in Tanzania,while agricultural yields may rise in certain districts,they are expected to fall in others.Thus,impacts could differ across households both by region and by income category(Arndt et al.2012).Understanding these changes would enable governments to design appropriate climate change adaptation policies.As the private sector will be at the forefront of adaptation within the policy frame-work to be defined by governments,it needs to be engaged in policy discussions from the outset.Most private sector actors in the poorest countries tend to view climate change as an“environmental issue”rather than as a business issue with significant implications for them.Consequently,much of the private sector underrates the degree of climate risks(Goldstein et al.2018).Any messaging needs to take this misperception into account,stressing the dire economic consequences of climate change,particularly for production and supply chains.In this regard,early engagement is critical.Governance mechanisms would be better off taking the form of public-private dia-logues with civil society such that climate change adaptation becomes an integral part of decision-making at all levels of society(Fayolle et al.2019).Therefore,it will be important to assess the degree of climate risks along the production and supply chains of private sector investments that are highly vulnerable to climate change.Country-specific interventions regarding trade liberalization would be better informed if they were based on an in-depth analysis of the nexus between international trade and climate change.For example,any trade-related interventions targeted at boosting agricultural productivity and consequently increasing farmers incomes would be remiss to ignore the criticality of drought-resilience strategies(Alfani et al.2019).Additionally,Nhemachena and Hassan(2007),in assessing farmers adaptation strategies for climate change in Southern Africa,find that farmers access to credit and extension services as well as climate change awareness are important determinants of farm-level adaptation.Moreover,Ouraich et al.(2019),in analyzing Morocco and Turkey,conclude that the greater the trade liberalization,the higher the gains in global welfare,although these gains may not be large enough to offset the negative impacts on agricultural productivity globally.Clearly,any mitigation or adaptation strategy needs to take into account country-specific development needs as well as the prevailing INTRODUCTION3institutional and technical capacity to address climate change.But policy makers also need to be aware of how climate change will affect other countries in terms of competi-tiveness and comparative advantage.Good governance and appropriately designed policies today will be critical to realizing the benefits of trade while mitigating climate change,especially for low-and middle-income countries tomorrow.Emerson et al.(2011),in examining the nuances between trade and the environment,find that higher trade flows are correlated posi-tively with good environmental practices and that good,data-driven decision-making will be fundamental to overcoming the existing challenges.The World Banks flagship report on managing the impacts of climate change on poverty suggests that appropri-ate,climate-informed policies today will determine future impacts on poverty(Hallegatte et al.2016).Governments of low-and middle-income countries often pri-oritize economic growth and poverty reduction.In view of this,when interacting with the Banks client governments,addressing climate change should be considered a necessary conduit for catalyzing sustainable trade growth.Trade in low-and middle-income countries will be affected by policy measures and private sector actions that are introduced to mitigate carbon emissions in other countries.Many countries are implementing policies to achieve their nationally defined contributions under the Paris Agreement,while being encouraged to set higher goals given the increasing evidence of the extent to which the planet is warming.Many of these policies,such as putting a price on the use of carbon through emissions-trading programs,will affect the structure of demand away from carbon-intensive goods and indirectly affect trade.More direct impacts will come if countries impose border adjustment programs to ensure that imports are taxed equally on their carbon content.Firms,too,are assessing their carbon footprint and seeking ways to reduce the emissions associated with them and to communicate their efforts to the wider society.Firms in low-and middle-income countries that supply inputs to global value chains may find that their buyers are placing more emphasis on the ability to track and reduce carbon emissions from their specific activities.Hence,trade is a key element in discussions about climate change,touching on emissions,mitigation,and adaptation.Figure 1.1 presents an overview of the types of trade and environmental or climate policies addressed in this report.It shows the importance of creating policies that consider both trade and climate change issues.The dialogue underpinning these policies requires a strong analytical base that,while recognizing emissions related to trade and legitimate concerns over carbon leak-age,4 does not resort to populist views that treat trade in generic terms as“simply bad for climate change.”In particular,these discussions need to recognize the gains from trade,how these gains can improve the ability of countries to invest in mitiga-tion,and the instrumental role of trade in combating and adapting to climate change.While there are notable cases where trade has exacerbated environmental out-comes in countries with weak governance structures,there are also cases,such as Costa Rica,where trade liberalization has accompanied an improving environment.This report shows that low-and middle-income countries are at the heart of the nexus between trade and climate change.Trade has been a phenomenal driver of pov-erty reduction over the past 30 years,and poverty reduction will remain the dominant development objective for many countries in the coming decades.But the changing climate and the policy responses being adopted to address it mean that current growth paths are not sustainable.Opportunities exist to move to a green,resilient,and inclu-sive development path,and trade will play a key role for many countries in this THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS4transition.Indeed,there are good reasons to believe that greening trade will contribute more to better growth,poverty reduction,and human development outcomes than current development trajectories.The report is organized as follows.Chapter 2 explains the rationale for paying attention to the important role of low-and middle-income countries in mitigating and adapting to climate change.It presents new analyses pointing to the increasing annual growth rate of emissions in the poorest countries and provides solutions that center on trade policy.Noting the importance of agriculture for low-and middle-income coun-tries,this chapter also examines emissions related to land-use change and options for sustainable agricultural land management through trade policy.Chapter 3 delves into the evolving comparative advantages and discusses the impacts of extreme weather events.It uses a stylized model to illustrate the importance of refraining from the use of trade restrictions during climate disasters that are coupled with other global disasters,such as the COVID-19 pandemic.Chapter 4 presents the necessity of adaptation poli-cies and the role of trade policy in facilitating the exchange of green goods and services and in promoting access to low-carbon technologies.It also discusses the implications of adaptation for trade.Chapter 5 examines the various types of environmental poli-cies(at the government and firm levels)and their intersection with trade,especially regarding their effects on exports from the poorest countries.It also discusses the Rising average temperatures Increasing sea levels Changes in rainfall patterns Permafrost collapse Increase in extreme weather

climate and trade policy diagnostic framework for Ethiopia and Vietnam.This report offers critical insights into the emerging types of climate-related issues and the corresponding trade policy options needed to present solutions.In doing so,it supports the World Bank Climate Action Plan(202125)and regional climate action plans.It is hoped that these findings will contribute to the dialogue between the World Bank and its client countries on trade and climate change issues.Notes1.For more details,see WMO(2021a),which adds that 2020 was one of the three warmest years on record.Further,June 2021 was the fifth-warmest Juneand the warmest for Earths land areassince global record-keeping began in 1880,with temperatures 0.88C(1.58F)above the 20th-century average,according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations National Centers for Environmental Information.2.For example,see Arndt et al.(2014)for their evaluation of the implications of climate change for growth and development in Malawi.3.However,the positive impact on agricultural productivity could be offset by excessive rainfall or the emergence of pests.4.Carbon leakage occurs when a mitigation policy in one jurisdiction leads not only to lower emissions in that jurisdiction but also to higher emissions in other,less climate-friendly juris-dictions,as firms shift their production to areas with less-stringent climate regulations.ReferencesAlfani,Federica,Aslihan Arslan,Nancy McCarthy,Romina Cavatassi,and Nicholas Sitko.2019.“Climate-Change Vulnerability in Rural Zambia:The Impact of an El Nio-Induced Shock on

emissionsThe suggestion that increased trade automatically increases greenhouse gas emissions is popular but not squarely true,as increased trade over time in the right types of goods and services,along with complementary regulations,can benefit the environment.The Environmental Kuznets Curve(EKC)captures this relationship perfectly.More spe-cifically,the EKC hypothesis is often used to explain the phenomenon that environ-mental degradation occurs with increasing economic growth until the country attains middle-income status,after which the environmental impacts start to decline.This relationship often happens through three independent effects on green-house gas emissionsscale,composition,and technique.The World Trade Organization(WTO)defines the“scale”effect as the change in the amount of emis-sions attributed to the increased output or economic activity resulting from freer trade;the“composition”effect refers to the change in the mix of a countrys production,in the wake of trade liberalization,toward those products where it has a comparative advantage;and the“technique”effect alludes to the changes(mainly improvements)in energy efficiency derived from opening trade,which reduces the amount of green-house gas emissions from the production of goods and services.Notably,environmental economists have debated the validity of the EKC hypoth-esis,with some doubting the U-curve relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation(Das Neves Almeida et al.2017;zokcu and zdemir 2017).However,other researchers have reinforced this theory(Hanif et al.2019;Ulucak and Bilgili 2018,among others).In fact,in examining the relationship between economic development and environmental degradation based on the EKC,Maneejuk et al.(2020)find that the EKC hypothesis is valid in 3 out of the 8 international eco-nomic communities covering 44 countries across the worldnamely,the European Union(EU),the G-7,and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD).THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS8Although the growth of trade and integration into global value chains has slowed since the financial crisis of 2008,countries that are deeply plugged into global value chains experience greater economic benefits;global shocks threaten this kind of integration.Over the past two decades,structural changes occurring in the global economy have reshaped global production and international trade,lead-ing to the rise of global value chains.An estimated 70 percent of international trade flows are plugged into global value chains today.Trade has grown at a slower rate,and the growth of global value chains has slowed as well,mainly due to increasing nationalistic tendencies,an uptake in digitalization,and country-specific concerns about sustainability(Zhan,Casella,and Bolwijn 2020).Moreover,the past two years have witnessed unprecedented global shocks from deepening trade tensions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.These shocks have disrupted global value chains and led to calls for the public and private sectors to rethink their policies.The pandemic has revealed the extent to which supply and value chains can transmit a crisis across countries.While world trade shows signs of rebounding,recovery is still uncertain and could be disrupted by ongoing pandemic effects,so it is important to make these global value chains sustainable and ensure that growth is resilient to external shocks.In addition,the pandemic has led to a shortage of production factors such as labor and capital,slowing down production in large,coronavirus-affected economies such as China,Europe,and the United States,which are at the center of global manufac-turing and trade networks.The slowdown in these countries production inevitably leads to significant supply-chain interruptions(Lenzen et al.2020),causing world-wide reductions in production and consumption(Cui et al.2020).In addition,cur-rent trade is likely to fall more steeply in sectors characterized by complex value-chain links,particularly in electronics and automotive products and in services trade,which have already suffered a 23 percent decline.Given these trends,the WTO estimates a 5.3 percent decline in the volume of world merchandise trade in 2020,followed by an 8.0 percent rise in 2021(WTO 2021).Clearly,if a health disaster can be transmitted along the chains,a climate change crisis could follow the same path.Studies have already shown that emissions embodied in production from one coun-try are often transferred to another.Given the transfer of emissions from low-and middle-income to high-income countries along global value chains,it is important to understand the country-specific territorial emissions embedded in exports.Globally,according to the latest estimates,carbon dioxide(CO2)emissions associated with the production and distribution of traded goods and services(8 billion tons)constitute a quarter of total global emissions(32 billion tons)(Banque de France 2020).Additionally,high-income nations collec-tively have higher consumption-based emissions(the United States imports 15 percent of the 8 billion tons for consumption)than territory-based emissions,meaning that they are net importers of emissions and thus benefit from carbon-intensive production abroad(Arto and Dietzenbacher 2014).These effects are growing over time,and the net transfer of emissions(production minus consumption)via international trade from high-income to low-and middle-income countries increased by a factor of four between 1990 and the 2008 global financial crisis,exceeding the emissions reductions obtained within the Kyoto Protocol(Peters et al.2011).Policies aimed at reducing CO2 emissions can increase a countrys participation in global value chains,but the environmental effects of trade will depend on low-And mIddlE-InComE CoUntrIES,CArBon EmISSIonS,And trAdE9complementary policies and regulations.For example,Wu,Guisheng,and Baogui(2020)find that causality between participation in global value chains and CO2 emis-sions has different aspects at the global and regional levels.At the global level,a feed-back causal relationship exists between participation in global value chains and CO2 emissions.Environmental policies aimed at reducing CO2 emissions will boost partici-pation in global value chains,while policies such as trade-related industrial innovation policies will cause environmental degradation.The causality from participation in global value chains to CO2 emissions is unidirectional.Participation in global value chains is raising CO2 emissions in the Asia-Pacific region,indicating that global-value-chain policies could lead to environmental damage.However,in Sub-Saharan Africa,environmental policies are encouraging participation in global value chains.Therefore,to promote participation in global value chains and reduce emissions,trade policies should consider technological innovation that reduces traditional energy consumption and increases renewable energy consumption.Environmental effects could arise from a combination of real income effects that will increase damages,an efficiency effect that will reduce damages,and leakage or externality effects that may increase or decrease damages.Consequently,understanding the emissions structure of low-and middle-income countries and identifying appropriate policies for increasing their participation in global value chains while simultaneously leading to positive envi-ronmental outcomes are critical.Understanding emissions from the developing worldProfile of the emerging emittersLow-and middle-income countries have been carbonizing increasingly in recent years,collectively emerging as the worlds third top emitter of emissions,after China and the United States.These increasingly carbonizing countries are called“emerging emit-ters.”Figure 2.1 compares the percentage changes over 201018 in annual CO2 emis-sions and gross domestic product(GDP)among the 59 emerging emitters;map 2.1 shows their GDP per capita and annual CO2 emissions growth rate.1 The average annual growth rate of emissions of the 59 emerging emitters was 6.2 percent in 201018much higher than the 2.0 percent worldwide average and higher than the 4.6 percent annual growth rate of these same countries GDP,reflecting the rising carbon-ization of their economies.Located in Africa,Asia,and Latin America,individually these countries emitted between 0.7 million and 542.9 million tons of CO2 in 2018(bounded by Eritrea and Indonesia,respectively).However,taken together,the coun-tries emissions grew by 40.7 percent in the period under studyfrom 2.7 gigatons to 3.8 gigatons of CO2.Moreover,the 1.1 gigaton increase in emissions accounts for 38.9 percent of the global increase in emissions over the period.Figure 2.2 compares these same figures with those for China,India,and the United States over the period 201018.By comparison,the CO2 emissions of China,the United States,and India amounted to 9.6 gigatons,4.9 gigatons,and 2.3 gigatons,respectively,in 2018.The aggregated GDP of emerging emitters in 2018(in 2010 constant US dollars)amounted to US$8.2 trillion,compared to the 2018 GDP for China,India,and the United States of US$10.9 trillion,US$2.8 trillion,and US$17.9 trillion,respectively.The annual growth of CO2 emissions of China,India,and the United States was 2.5 percent,4.9 percent,and 1.0 percent,respectively.The annual THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS10GDP growth rates of the entire world(average),China,India,and the United States were 3.14 percent,7.5 percent,6.7 percent,and 2.3 percent,respectively.Emerging emitters have significantly lower levels of GDP per capita than the world average as well as higher levels of poverty.While they comprise countries in development categories ranging from the lowest-income countries to economies in transition,in most cases,their GDP per capita is substantially lower than the global average(53 countries have GDP per capita below US$11,000 in constant 2010 US dollars).In 2017,698 million people in these countries were living in absolute pov-ertythat is,earning less than US$1.90 per day in purchasing power parity(PPP)value.This figure represents 9.3 percent of the global population.Among the 59 emerging emitters,emissions grew faster than GDP in 34 countries(58 percent)and twice as fast as GDP in 12 countries(20 percent).In 25 other countries(42 percent),economic growth outstripped emissions growth,corresponding to decreasing carbon intensity.FIGURE 2.1 Changes in Annual CO2 Emissions and GDP of

C02emissions,201018THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS12Drivers of recent emission surgesAcross all 59 emerging emitters,higher GDP per capita and population growth have been the most important drivers of emissions growth.Figure 2.3 shows the two main drivers and two main inhibitors of the rise in emissions between 2010 and 2018 for 20 countries in Africa,Asia,and Latin America.An increase in GDP per capita was the foremost driver of emissions increases in 44 percent of the countries,including Colombia,Ethiopia,and Vietnam.In the next 29 percent of the countries,including Lebanon and Uganda,population growth was the most significant driver.Following closely behind these socioeconomic factors were increases in the use of a particular fossil fuel,with increases in the use of either oil or coal as the most influential factors of emissions increases in 14 percent of the 59 emerging emitters,including Guatemala,Haiti,the Kyrgyz Republic,Myanmar,and Sudan.Energy intensity was one of the top two drivers of emissions growth in 12 percent of the countries,including Algeria and the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic.A decline in energy intensity was the most critical driver of emissions reductions.A rise in the CO2 emissions intensity of energy use contributed to emissions growth the most in 5 percent of the countries,including Botswana,Nepal,and Nicaragua.By comparison,a decline in energy intensity was the most influential driver of emissions reduction in a third(32 percent)of the countries,including Ethiopia,Mongolia,Uganda,and United Arab Emirates,followed by a fall in the CO2 emissions intensity of energy use in 20 percent of the countries,including Haiti,Peru,and Sudan,a smaller share of industrial value added in 15 percent of the countries,especially in Latin America and in some Asian countries,and a declining share of oil use in 15 percent of the countries,including Botswana and Nepal.Implications for global climate efforts and the role of trade policyEmerging emitters collectively have contributed extremely little to the overall stock of CO2 in the atmosphere,but they have come to the forefront of the growth of CO2 emis-sions over the past decade and will likely increasingly do so.These emissions will be influenced by strong and sustained economic growth,which is crucial for poverty reduction,and by population growth.Moreover,heavy consumption of carbon energy will continue to drive significant emissions growth from these countries.The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed more people into poverty,and the current depen-dence on traditional fossil fuels is likely to result in sizable carbon emissions.While COVID-related shutdowns are expected to reduce emissions in the next few years,countries will,regardless of the severity of the lockdowns,quickly return to a trajectory whereby emissions by 2040 will substantially exceed those in published scenarios that limit global warming to 2C.As such,there is urgency to revive growth quickly using tools that facilitate sustainable growth.These countries are confronting the massive challenges of achieving inclusive economic development,contributing to climate change mitigation,and adapting to rising global temperatures,changing precipitation patterns,and more extreme weather events.Indeed,these emerging emitters are the most vulnerable and least prepared to adapt to climate change.What is more,climate change will undermine their ability to reduce poverty because it will constrain their productivity growth,especially in low-And mIddlE-InComE CoUntrIES,CArBon EmISSIonS,And trAdE13FIGURE

to be redirected toward adaptation.Costinot,Donaldson,and Smith(2016),for example,compute that the impact of cli-mate change on agricultural productivity alone will result in a decline in welfare equiv-alent to almost 4 percent of GDP in Uganda and more than 6.5 percent of GDP in Vietnam.This scenario assumes that the patterns of trade and production will adjust to dampen the impact.If adjustment is constrained,losses could amount to more than 7.5 percent of GDP in Uganda and more than 11 percent in Vietnam.In order to limit global warming to 2C above preindustrial levels,the world will have to reduce emissions by 25 percent with respect to 2018 levelsan uphill task that requires unprecedented efforts from all countries.For this reason,adaptation will be critical.The emerging emitters are highly diverse in the absolute level of national CO2 emissions,the relationship between GDP growth and increases in CO2 emissions,the drivers of emissions growth,the response to the COVID pandemic,and the impact of alternative post-COVID pathways.Many of these countries are making commendable strides in enhancing the ambition of their nationally determined contributions under the Paris Agreement.However,in the post-COVID era,the outcomes from different pathways could lead to a difference of more than 1 gigaton in emissions from these countries.As many of these countries are already feeling the adverse effects of climate change and dealing with changing comparative advantages,adaptation mechanisms need to be at the forefront of the discussions.A global move toward a“low-carbon lifestyle”would entail significant changes in consumption and in how products are made.Low-carbon technologies are crucial to limiting the surge in emissions.The analysis shows that the adoption of low-carbon technologies can considerably influence future reductions in emissionswith early application of carbon capture and storage and renewable energy in the power sector and with electric vehicles replacing oil-fueled cars,the emerging emitters could reduce emissions by 600 metric tons of CO2 equivalent by 2040.2 However,while the adop-tion of new,low-carbon technologies can help to reduce the emissions of the emerging emitters,new technologies alone will not enable them to follow a sustainable pathway in line with the international consensus on the limits of global warming.Removing barriers to trade in the products that can support the move to a low-carbon future and facilitating the sharing of knowledge on how to implement the tran-sition can be important steps to support the efforts of low-and middle-income countries to reduce emissions.The challenge for the global community is to facilitate these economic transformations in ways that support sustained growth and poverty reduction.Doing so requires understanding the climate and development impacts of the policies(especially trade policies)being put forward as necessary to achieve global warming objectives.These policies include imposing domestic carbon taxes(PMR 2017)and carbon border tax adjustments;3 removing subsidies to fossil fuel produc-tion and consumption;reducing tariffs on trade in green goods;ensuring consistency between trade taxes on dirty and clean goods;4 and improving access to the technolo-gies,finance,and knowledge necessary to support global adoption of new,low-carbon sources of energy and less energy-intensive production.More generally,simultaneously addressing the challenges of ending extreme pov-erty,achieving inclusive growth throughout the world,and meeting climate goals will require cooperative solutions that consider both the development needs and emission realities of low-and middle-income countries.More specifically,while countries at all income levels refer to renewable energy,low-and middle-income economies often identify it as a priority.These emerging emitters need support from the global low-And mIddlE-InComE CoUntrIES,CArBon EmISSIonS,And trAdE15community to work toward achieving their commitments,especially in the form of large-scale and effective technology transfer,financing,and capacity strengthening.Further analysis can help to identify the coordinated policy measures that will allow countries to achieve their objectives regarding poverty reduction,structural transfor-mation,and adaptation to climate change,while stabilizing their emissions and con-tributing to meeting internationally agreed-on climate targets.Policy makers have paid little attention to trade measures as a tool for environ-mental policy,and this situation needs to change.According to a 2017 study of trade commitments undertaken in response to the Paris Agreement,“The major emitters and net exporters of carbon do not put a strong focus on trade or trade-related mea-sures”(Brandi 2017).However,several trade policies are related to climate,and a few are highlighted in this section,with an emphasis on tariffs,as restructuring tariffs could be the necessary first step for most governments in facilitating greener trade.Current tariff structures and nontariff barriers are biased toward dirty industries,thus implicitly subsidizing CO2 emissions.5 Shapiro(2020)finds that in most coun-tries the rates of tariffs and nontariff barriersfor both cooperative and noncoopera-tive tariffs and over several yearsare substantially higher on clean than on dirty goods.Tariffs and nontariff barriers differ for clean and dirty industries because indus-tries tend to be well organized,while final consumers generally are not.As a result,countries impose higher tariffs and nontariff barriers on downstream(clean)goods and lower tariffs and nontariff barriers on upstream(dirty)goods.In fact,firms often lobby for high protection for their own outputs but low protection for their intermedi-ate inputs.This skewed bias,resulting from trade policy,creates an implicit subsidy for CO2 generation.An industrys“dirtiness”in this analysis is defined by the total amount of CO2 emitted to produce a dollar of output.This implicit subsidy totals US$550 billion to US$800 billion per year,significantly higher than the direct global subsidies for fossil fuel consumption,estimated at about US$530 billion per year.Leveling the playing field by imposing similar tariffs and nontariff barriers on clean and dirty industries would have significant positive effects.Using a general equi-librium model,Shapiro(2020)postulates that if countries impose similar tariffs and nontariff barriers on clean and dirty industries,global CO2 emissions would fall,while global real income would remain unchanged or increase slightly.Further,and with significant effects,these changes in global CO2 emissions are of comparable scale to the estimated impacts of some of the worlds largest actual or proposed climate change policies.Evidence suggests that cutting tariffs in dirty sectors,without appropriate carbon policies,leads to higher emissions and more environmental pollution.If environmen-tal policies do not account for the emissions embodied in imports,global emissions are likely to rise(Kanemoto et al.2014).Islam,Kanemoto,and Managi(2019)find that a reduction in tariff barriers facilitates the relocation of factories to countries with less stringent environmental regulations.The carbon footprint of those emissions from low-and medium-income countries to high-income countries has grown rapidly over the past 30 years through international trade.However,almost all countries maintain their tariff barriers,and these tariffs limit the potential to increase CO2 emission trans-fers.The findings reveal that a 1 percent tariff cut by G-20 countries for mining gas,manufactured machinery,metal,and other mining imports would result in 2,779 tons,1,747 tons,1,453 tons,and,1,018 tons of CO2 emissions,respectively.Additionally,a tariff cut would increase the embodied CO2 emissions significantly for most of the manufacturing and mining sectors.He and Huang(2020)find that reducing import THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS16tariffs on final goods and intermediate inputs in the Central America Free Trade Agreement(CAFTA)could reduce firms pollution emissions through both the“tech-nique effect”and the“composition effect.”Thus,it is essential to make full use of both technique and composition effects to reduce emissions by reducing import tariffs in CAFTA.Trade agreements have traditionally described environmental regulations,but rarely address restructuring tariffs to promote cleaner goods or removing nontariff barriers to facilitate greener trade.The World Banks Deep Trade Agreement data-base 2.0 reveals that of all the trade agreements globally,the EUs trade agreements have attempted to include environmental provisions in the most significant way,cov-ering issues of institutions,cooperation,and welfare and including an enforcement mechanism.However,Shapiro(2020)finds that these agreements typically describe domestic environmental regulations or monitoring investments,but not patterns of tariffs and nontariff barriers.Many of these investments merely seek to prevent the relocation of dirty industries by barring the use of weak domestic environmental policies to lure dirty production across borders.Governments need to delineate the types of trade policies that affect the environment so that appropriate amendments can be made.A tariff restructuring biased toward lower duties for high-technology green sec-tors would have significant payoffs for low-and middle-income countries,both in terms of emissions and in terms of poverty rates(box 2.1).Taking the example of Bangladesh,a green-trade scenario could remove 45 metric tons of CO2 equivalent BOX 2.1 modeling Postpandemic Impacts under different trade ScenariosThis study defines three scenarios for trade patterns in the postpandemic era,based on the default COVID-19 scenario that the pandemic will last for three years:Deglobalization.Import tariff rates on all commodities(except for agricultural products)between all countries are increased by 30 percent.In this scenario,the competitiveness of domestic products increases,while the competitiveness of imported products decreases.The supply chain becomes more dependent on domestic products.Free trade.Import tariff rates on all commodities(except for agricultural products)between all countries are set to 0.In this scenario,all countries enjoy free trade.Green trade.Import tariff rates on products from carbon-intensive commodities(that is,light and heavy manufacturing,transportation equipment industries)between all countries are increased by 30 percent,and import tariff rates on products from high-tech industries between all countries are set to 0.Impact of trade scenarios on emissionsThe emissions trajectory and changes in energy structure under different trade patterns were estimated using a computable general equilibrium model that assesses carbon dioxide(CO2)emissions under different trade scenarios and energy mix projections from the Greenhouse GasAir Pollution Interactions and Synergies(GAINS)model.In selected low-income countries,results show that,although fossil fuels will still constitute the highest share of the 2040 energy mix,promoting greener pathways would significantly offset the rapid increment in emissions,which is inevitably brought about by a booming economy.Specifically,a green-trade scenario in renewable energies such as wind and solar would contribute significantly to a countrys emissions removal effort.In all countries,the reduction in emissions is significantly higher in the green-trade scenario than in the business-as-usual trajectory with no COVID-19.(Box continues next page)Low-and MiddLe-incoMe countries,carbon eMissions,and trade17BOX 2.1 Modeling Postpandemic impacts under different trade scenarios(Continued)Figure B2.1.1 shows the results of five scenarios(with COVID,no COVID,green trade,free trade,and deglobalization)for the evolution of CO2 emissions.Numbers marked on the left side of each line chart represent the maximum and minimum CO2 emissions of the five scenarios in 2040,respectively.To note,the International Energy Agency excludes biomass from its calculations of CO2 emissions.Therefore,biomass energy is included in the description of the current state of national energy structure but is neglected in the simulation of future emission and energy structure scenarios.Impact of trade scenarios on poverty alleviation in low-income countriesLinking a global economic model(Global Trade Analysis Project GTAP model)to a micro household survey data set makes it possible to assess the impact of COVID-19 and the potential impact of deglobalization in the postpandemic era on economic growth and achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of eradicating extreme poverty.Results show that the capacity to alleviate poverty and ability to adapt to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis varies greatly among regions,especially for low-income countries.South American countries have a low poverty rate and a small population base;as such,the rate of decline in the poverty rate is relatively small.Specifically,when compared to deglobalization scenarios,free trade also contributes to poverty reduction,especially for people who are struggling under extreme poverty(figure B2.1.2).The panels show the poverty rate at different poverty lines for the five scenarios.Projections are available for 85 countries.FIGURE

addition,a deglobalization reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic would exacerbate the already worsening poverty BOX 2.1 modeling Postpandemic Impacts under different trade Scenarios(Continued)Taking

below these poverty lines in 2010.Due to the pandemics impact,the extreme poverty rate in Ethiopia will remain at 18.3 percent in 2021 in a default scenario but will decline to 7.9 percent in 2024.FIGURE B2.1.2 Poverty rate in Selected Countries in the Postpandemic Era under different trade Pattern Scenarios,202450Sources:AghaKouchak et al.2020;Hu et al.2021.Note:COVID=with COVID-19

scenariodropping to 2 percent(US$3.20US$5.50 PPP per day)(Hu et al.2021).Examining agriculture as one of the main trade-related sectors affecting emissions from the developing world The export structure of most low-and middle-income countries is based on agricul-ture,signaling agricultures critical importance for jobs,income,poverty reduction,and government revenue.However,the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)estimates that land-use changefor example,conversion of forest into agricul-tural landadds a net 1.6 0.8 gigaton of carbon per year to the atmosphere,which is similar to a quarter of emissions from fossil fuel combustion and cement production(Watson et al.2000).The expansion of large-scale commercial agriculture is often viewed as the culprit,but the collective emissions from subsistence farmers and out-growers6 also contribute significantly.Moreover,while agriculture exacerbates climate change(through deforestation and in other ways),it also suffers from the adverse effects of climate changeamong others,growing water scarcity.This section exam-ines the problem and provides suggestions on how trade can help to increase agricul-tural output sustainably while reducing land-use change.Impact of trade on land-use change and emissions,especially in low-income African countriesSince the advent of agriculture,natural forests and habitats have been cleared to engage in crop and animal production,but these changes in land use are contributing to grow-ing emissions.In more recent periods,clearing for industrial activities has also played a role,but not at commensurate levels.The United Nations Climate Change Secretariat defines land use,land-use change,and forestry(LULUCF),also referred to as forestry and other land use,as“a greenhouse gas inventory sector that covers emissions and removals of GHGs greenhouse gases resulting from direct human-induced land use such as settlements and commercial uses,land-use change,and forestry activities.”7 The impacts of LULUCF on climate are directchanging the global carbon cycle.LULUCF activities either add CO2 to the atmosphere or remove it,thus bringing about changes in biodiversity and climate patterns.Since international trade involves mainly commodities produced where resources are most abundant,several countries clear forests to enable productive activities des-tined for export.On average,the harvest of one-fifth of global cropland area was des-tined for export in the 2000s,and almost all growth in cropland area was for internationally traded crops(Kastner,Erb,and Haberl 2014).Demand for the final and intermediate products made with forest-risk commodities is global,but produc-tion and associated land-use change are geographically decoupled from the associated demand(Henders,Persson,and Kastner 2015).Commodities whose production entails deforestation vary between regions and countries;in the case of Africa,they are largely livestock meat and some cereals.Specifically,production of cattle meat contributes just over a quarter,and the remain-der is from the production of a diverse mix of other cereals,roots and tubers,pulses,and other oilseeds(Pendrill et al.2019).In Latin America,the production of cattle THE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS20meat accounts for more than 60 percent of embodied deforestation.In Asia and Pacific,the production of palm oil and forestry products each accounts for a third of embodied deforestation.For example,in Argentina,Brazil,Indonesia,and Malaysia,the production of soybeans and palm oil during the 19902014 period led to a forest loss of more than 60 million hectares.The problem:Increasing deforestation caused by fuel agricultural exports despite suboptimal productivity per acreage Tree cover loss has been significant in Africa,with the remaining primary forest cover mainly in the Democratic Republic of Congo and distributed sparsely in parts of West Africa and East Africa.Between 2001 and 2019,tree cover loss accelerated in Africa.The Democratic Republic of Congo experienced the greatest loss,ranking sixth in the world in terms of forest cover loss,losing 14.6 million hectares over the past two decades.The Democratic Republic of Congo is followed by Madagascar(3.89 million hectares)and Mozambique(3.29 million hectares),Cte dIvoire(3.03 million hect-ares),and Tanzania(2.51 million hectares).(The Russian Federation had the highest relative tree cover loss in the world,equivalent to 64.0 million hectares,which repre-sented 8.4 percent of tree cover in 2000.)Forests present a significant stock of global carbon,accumulated through the growth of trees and increase in soil carbon.Tampering with primary forestsconverting primary to managed forests,illegal log-ging,and unsustainable forest managementresults in greenhouse gas emissions and can have additional physical effects on the regional climate(IPCC 2019).In the past decade,the value of the poorest countries oil and gas exports has almost halved,whereas agriculture and textile manufacturing exports have increased gradually(figure 2.4).In 2019 oil and gas extraction exports were US$45.3 billion,down from US$85.1 billion in 2012.Agriculture and textile manufacturing exports FIGURE 2.4 Categories of Exports from the Poorest Countries to the world(mirror data),201219Source:International Trade Statistics(COMTRADE)data.0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 16020122013201420152016201720182019Value(US$billions)Manufactured

by about US$5.0 billion,while average forestry exports amounted to US$1.8 billion over the same period.In Sub-Saharan Africa,land is used mostly for agriculture;between 1990 and 2018,agricultural land grew by 4 percent,while forest area declined by almost the same percentage.Africa is the only region where emissions due to agriculture and related land use are higher than those due to energy.Africa remains an agricultural powerhouse,and recent investments in large-scale commercial farming are having an adverse effect on the environment.By 2013,the value of agricultural production in Africa had tripled compared to levels in 1980;growth was almost identical to or lower than that of South America,but comparable to that of Asia(NEPAD 2013).Between 1990 and 2017,Africas agricultural emissions ranged from 1.7 million to 1.8 million gigagrams,fol-lowed by South America,which saw a substantial reduction over the same periodfrom 1.8 million to 1.1.million gigagrams.Globally,total emissions not associated with land use have been growing(except for Europe),driven largely by energy,espe-cially in low-income food-deficit countries and South Asia.Industrial processes have also been adding increasingly to CO2 emissions in these same regions.Europe is the only region exhibiting a decline in both total emissions(excluding land use)and energy.Although more land is being allocated to agriculture,yields are still very low,sig-naling that current output may have been achievable with less land-use change.The increase in agricultural output in Africa has been driven by the expansion of cropland rather than an increase in yields.For many crops,yields in Africa remain far below the averages obtained elsewhere in the world.For example,in Sub-Saharan Africa,the area of land dedicated to cereal production has been increasing since 1960,but up to 2017 yields did not grow by a commensurate amount(figure 2.5).More specifically,yields did not even double(growing by a factor of 1.8),while land hectarage almost FIGURE 2.5 Cereal Production versus Yield on Harvested land in Sub-Saharan Africa,19602016Source:Food and Agriculture Organization,Food and Agriculture Statistics Di

in the 14th Five-Year Plan,the Report draws out the pathway for effectively realizing socialist modernization.In other words,from getting rich to becoming strong.Against this backdrop,companies in China will seek to deepen reform and take significant strides on the road to high-quality development and building world-class enterprises.In the following sections,we will summarize the overriding agenda for future development,assess the implications for the macroeconomy and specific industries,and identify opportunities for companies in the future.First propose the Chinese path to modernization and underscore security and innovation The concept of the Chinese path to modernization first appeared in the report to the National Congress of the CPC.The Report identifies that the central task of the Communist Party of China is to lead the Chinese people of all ethnic groups in a concerted effort to realize the Second Centenary Goal of building China into a great modern socialist country in all respects and to advance the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation on all fronts through a Chinese path to modernization.The Chinese path to modernization involves the modernization of a huge population,common prosperity for all,material and cultural-ethical advancement,harmony between humanity and nature,and peaceful development.When the country embarks on a new journey,the Report,in light of actual conditions,emphasizes the coordinated development of material advancement,spiritual advancement and ecological conservation.The priorities of the 14th Five-Year Plan remain the highlights of the Report.Security,innovation,reform,international,and technology were frequently mentioned in the 14th Five-Year Plan.They continue to be featured throughout the Report.Security and innovation appear most frequently,indicating that they are critical to high-quality development,touching on all aspects of economic and social development.This also shows Chinas determination and resolve to seek high-quality development in response to severe and intricate international developments.Fig.1 Comparison of the most frequently used terms Source:Note:The word frequency of the Report is converted based on the length of the 14th Five-Year Plan relative to that of the Report New chapters were added to address the issue of invigorating China through science and education,law-based governance,and national security.Compared to the Report to the 19th National Congress of the CPC,the Report added three chapters in the area of development measures,including Invigorating China through Science and Education and Developing a Strong Workforce for the Modernization Drive,Exercising Law-Based Governance on All Fronts and Advancing the Rule of Law in China,and Modernizing Chinas National Security System and Capacity and Safeguarding National Security and Social Stability.This signifies the importance of science and education,the rule of law,and security.The Report further clarifies the focus of creating a new development pattern.The Report included the Creation of a New Development Pattern into the Long-Range Objectives through the Year 2035 and required accelerated efforts to foster a new development pattern that is focused on the domestic economy and that features positive interplay between domestic and international economic flows.It also states that the country should boost the dynamism and reliability of the domestic economy while engaging at a higher level in the global economy.Boosting the domestic economy will need to focus on expanding domestic demand,optimizing supply structures and removing obstacles.Refining systems,enhancing structures and deepening cooperation are the top priorities for engaging in the global economy in order to further facilitate smooth flows in the domestic economy.181 107 99 88 86 1821701209189050100150200SecurityInnovationReformInternationalTechnologythe Reportthe 14th Five-Year Plan Seven key trends of economic development We find seven trends that stand out in the Report.These are the real economy,high-quality opening up,expanding domestic demand,scientific and technological innovation,green development,security,and common prosperity.The real economy is the focus of modernizing the industrial system.According to the Report,the country will continue to focus on the real economy in pursuing economic growth.The manufacturing sector will attach importance to industrial reengineering projects,research projects on major technologies and equipment,and developing companies that use special and sophisticated technologies.The services sector will be further integrated with advanced manufacturing and modern agriculture,while the digital economy will be further integrated with the real economy and internationally-competitive digital industrial clusters will be built.High-quality opening up underscores institutional opening up and Chinas transformation into a trader of quality.Regarding institutional opening up,it is imperative for China to actively align with high-quality international economic and trade rules,and create the institutional system and regulatory framework to accompany high-quality international rules.In terms of trade development,the country will seek to upgrade trade in goods while developing new mechanisms for trade in services.Digital trade will be promoted to accelerate Chinas transformation into a trader of quality.To attract foreign investment,the country underlines the importance of improving the investment structure for foreign businesses and encourages investment in advanced manufacturing and high and new technology.In light of this,multinational companies may make use of their abundant experience in operations,seize opportunities and actively engage in Chinas high-quality opening up.They can do this by setting up research and development centers in China,collaborating with local businesses to accelerate technological innovation,driving the green transformation across the supply chain in line with international environmental protection standards to achieve industry-specific dual carbon goals,remaining committed to the vast Chinese market,and tapping into the enormous potential to create better conditions for development in China.Expand domestic demand while pursuing supply-side structural reform.The Report states that the implementation of the strategy to expand domestic demand is to be integrated with the efforts to deepen supply-side structural reform,to boost the dynamism and reliability of the domestic economy.As consumption is of fundamental importance to economic growth,expanding domestic demand can better leverage the guiding role of consumption and investment in stimulating supply-side structural reform.Improving supply quality and increasing effective supply should be the focus of supply-side structural reform to better meet the peoples ever-growing needs for a better life.Education,technology,and talent go hand in hand with greater significance.For the first time,the Report put the strategy for invigorating China through science and education,the workforce development strategy,and the innovation-driven development strategy within the same chapter.This follows on from the chapter on high-quality High-quality development Scientific and technological innovation Common prosperity Green development Security High-quality opening up Expanding domestic demand Real economy development,recognizing the interconnectivity of education,technology,and talent as key elements of a systematic approach.It highlights the urgency of transitioning the driving forces of development and the necessity of independent innovation amid the situation emerging both inside and outside of China.Talent is inseparable from creating a new development pattern,fostering new growth drivers,and building a new competitive edge.With increasing uncertainty in the international environment,rapidly improving the ability to conduct independent research and making breakthroughs in core technologies is the proper response to overcoming bottlenecks.High-quality opening up requires moving faster to build global hubs for talent and creating comparative strengths in global competition for talent to support industrial upgrading throughout China.Pursue green development and promote harmony between humanity and nature.A major trend is the transition to a model of green development and the development of a system for new energy sources,which requires a well-planned and step-by-step approach,as well as measures to ensure a stable energy supply and an optimized energy mix to facilitate a smooth and secured transition.The clean and efficient use of fossil fuels has received much attention.New energy development will accelerate,not slow down.Integrating the development of digital technology with the construction of the power grid and facilities for energy storage and replenishment will foster new forms of business and enable the creation of innovative green cooperation and solutions.Development security is underscored.The Report proposed to ensure the security of food,energy,and resources as well as key industrial and supply chains.Making sure that Chinas total area of farmland does not fall below the redline of 120 million hectares and reducing seed dependency will be the top priority concerning food security.Reducing oil and gas dependency and solidly advancing the new energy strategy will be placed front and center of energy security.The security of industrial chains will be achieved by resolving bottlenecks in key technological links of chips and core software,effectively integrating and controlling the resources for industrial chains with a focus on key areas and key links such as AI,quantum information,and integrated circuits.China will also need to enhance the resilience of industrial and supply chains and accelerate the development of an independent and controllable industrial system of next-generation information technology.Common prosperity becomes more relevant and vital.Since the 19th National Congress of the CPC,common prosperity has increasingly appeared in major documents.The Report further stated that common prosperity is an important feature of Chinese modernization.By proposing equality of opportunity and well-regulated means of accumulating wealth,concrete steps will be taken in various areas to address common prosperity.The Report reiterated that the country would keep distribution according to work as a mainstay,while ensuring more pay for more work and encouraging people to achieve prosperity through hard work.It made clear that,rather than seeking equality of outcome,promoting equality of opportunity should be the key.By regulating the means of accumulating wealth,it is expected that regulations restricting the income sources of and taxing high earners will be refined.Economic outlook Opportunities coexist with challenges amid a steady economic recovery Geopolitical tensions,together with the energy and food crisis,have increased the level of uncertainty in the international environment.Add in persistently high inflation and tightening monetary policies across developed economies and the global economy continues to lose steam.This inevitably creates several external challenges for Chinas economic growth.Following a weak performance in Q2,the Chinese economy is recovering with Q3 GDP growth at 3.9%and Q1-3 growth at 3%.Growth was led by consumption which contributed 1.2 percentage points of GDP growth.That said,the consumer confidence index remained below 90(compared to an average of 120 in 2020)due to recurrent COVID-19 outbreaks in Q2.It will take time for consumer confidence to recover further.The investment structure is improving,with investment in the high-tech industry increasing significantly faster than overall investment growth.In light of slowing real estate investments,it is crucial that policymakers find new growth drivers.Thanks to highly resilient supply chains,China maintains strong growth in foreign trade and continues to attract foreign investment,with exports in 2021 and the first ten months of 2022 growing at 30%and 11%respectively,while growth of foreign direct investment in 2021 and Q1-3 2022 stand at around 20%,underscoring the competitiveness of China-made products and the attractiveness of China for global production factors and resources.However,potential risks from weakening external demand behind the slip in October exports should be guarded against.After the 20th National Congress of the CPC,maintaining stable economic growth will become even more critical.As Omicron is weakening,the vaccination rate is increasing and the country is more experienced in fighting the pandemic.Optimized COVID-19 control measures are expected to be rolled out according to the situation at hand which will help boost consumer confidence.Key sectors outlook Consumer Products&Retail Expanding domestic demand requires accelerating the upgrading and expansion of consumption The Report proposed to expand domestic demand and better leverage the fundamental role of consumption in stimulating economic growth,while setting green consumption,common prosperity,and innovation-driven development as key priorities,which is a positive signal to the consumer market.The following areas can offer major opportunities for consumer products and retail.Extend green consumption to more areas and encourage green ways of consumption.Companies moving faster at living up to their green commitments and embedding green concepts into the whole process of product development and manufacturing will increase buy-in from consumers and receive more policy support.Expand opening-up and further promote cross-border e-commerce.The Report stressed that the country would remain steadfast in expanding and opening up.More support measures for new forms and models of foreign trade,including cross-border e-commerce,are expected to be rolled out.Improve consumption supply and spur consumption in lower-tier markets.Efforts in new urbanization and rural revitalization will facilitate the two-way flow of personnel and resources between urban and rural areas,with consumption supply to cities at all levels and rural areas to be improved to effectively promote consumption in lower-tier markets.Fig.2 Rural residents disposable income increased steadily and lower-tier markets have great consumption potential Source:National Bureau of Statistics of China(NBS)Digital technology enables innovation in forms and models of consumption.Under the innovation-driven development strategy,companies seeking to speed up their digital transformation while actively exploring emerging application scenarios are more likely to attract capital.Enhance consumer privacy and data security.In the Report,peoples security was held up as the ultimate goal.As relevant policies are to be rolled out and market regulation further tightened,companies need to strengthen consumer data protection,avoiding the negative impact of consumer data breaches.Auto Balancing innovation,security,and opening-up 14000150001600017000180001900020000201920202021Unit:yuan6.9.5%Double down on

and cutting-edge advances,and build a hub of auto innovation to attract companies from across the globe.Supply chain security should be based on better control instead of 100%independence:The intelligent electric vehicle industry will create a diverse supply ecosystem of crucial parts and technologies.On the one hand,this is critical to improving independent research and development capabilities,making steady progress to independently develop technologies and products in critical areas.On the other hand,exploring alternative solutions beyond mainstream technologies is essential.Fig.3 Ratio of chips made in China Source:TF Securities The dual carbon strategy in the auto industry will foster green investment opportunities:Automakers in China should rapidly work out plans to cut emissions across the supply chain and create a new competitive channel in green technology through product lifecycle decarbonization.They should also increase investments in energy conservation and emission reduction technologies,build a business model based around the circular economy,and increase the green premium of their brand.Further improve the environment for foreign investors to increase attractiveness for global innovation factors:The Chinese government will further improve the environment for foreign investors,and steadily expand institutional opening up concerning rules,regulations,management,and standards,attracting automobile and auto parts multinationals to invest in China and share the benefits of emerging technological development.Logistics Build a high-quality service system for international and domestic supply chains Develop a supply chain logistics system catering to dual circulation.Facilitate the smooth running of the foreign trade supply chain,support the development of cross-border e-commerce and overseas warehouses,expand normal cross-border mailing channels such as air,rail,and sea freight,and build up capabilities for the

Source:Government Public Information Energy and Resources Adopt a dual-track approach for energy security and the energy revolution Put energy security at the top of the agenda:The Report gave high priority to energy security and emphasized that the energy revolution should be carried out in an orderly manner in line with the principle of building the new before discarding the old.In this context,the clean and efficient use of fossil fuels has received much attention.Building a multi-wheel-driven energy supply system of wind,solar,nuclear,water,coal,oil,and gas resources is the ultimate orientation to ensure energy security.Thus,new energy development will speed up rather than slow down.Fig.14 Wind and solar power installed capacities surge in the 14th Five-Year Plan period 05101520253035省(市、自治区)数量Number of provinces(municipalities,autonomous regions)Source:Wind,Deloitte Research Technological innovation serves as the primary driving force behind the energy transition:The Report stated again that China will exercise better control over the quantity and intensity of energy consumption,and transition gradually towards controlling both the amount and intensity of carbon emissions.Under the guidance of cutting carbon emissions,the cleaner and more efficient way of utilizing energy represented by Combined Cooling,Heating,and Power technology,the Internet of Things,and other technologies that can help improve energy management efficiency,and carbon-negative technologies such as CCUS(carbon capture,utilization,and storage)are key to the transformation of the fossil energy sector.Meanwhile,Chinas dual carbon goals will significantly stimulate the energy consumption transition towards cleaner energy sources,especially in construction,industry,transportation,and other key energy-consumption sectors.Hydrogen and electrification technologies enabling energy end-use transition toward new energy sources are seeing opportunities.With the accelerated penetration of new energy,demand for green metals such as lithium and cobalt is thriving.Technologies that can improve the energy transformation,energy density,and recycling efficiency of these metals,such as battery cycling,will become a new growth area.Shifts in energy sales and supply urgently need new business models and energy solutions:In the development of energy infrastructure,digitalization will be pushed forward with the construction of the power grid and facilities for energy storage and replenishment.Digitalization of the whole link from production to supply,storage,and sales of energy will give consumers and communities more flexibility in energy use.Energy sales and supply will gradually shift to a two-way interaction model.V2G(vehicle-to-grid),optical storage,charging and inspection,and other energy solutions are also expected to be commercialized.Conclusion and expectation China is poised at a crucial stage as the country embarks on the journey towards its Second Centenary Goal with various development challenges to tackle.In an increasingly complex and volatile world,external demand is sluggish.At home,the national economy has entered a critical period of transforming the growth model,adjusting the economic structure,and building a new development pattern.The Report identifies Chinas strategic direction in the next five years and beyond.We believe that China will continue to advance reform and explore new ground,realize the premium of favorable policies and innovation initiatives,engage deeply in the international division of labor,and reshape global value chains to offer Chinas solutions for a global economic recovery and re-globalization.0510152025302021-12021-22021-32021-42021-52021-62021-72021-82021-92021-102021-112021-122022-12022-22022-32022-42022-52022-62022-72022-82022-9(%)火电装机容量累计同比增速水电装机容量累计同比增速核电装机容量累计同比增速风电装机容量累计同比增速光伏装机容量累计同比增速YoY

shortages created by the global COVID-19pandemic have been a daily challenge for healthcareprovider supply chain teams.In 2020,shortages startedwith personal protective equipment(PPE),sanitizing products and testing supplies,butsoon spread into many other supply categories.Coupled with the fact that it wasunknown how long the supply challenges would persist,the sheer volume of productsaffected made it extremely difficult for those procuring the products.Corewell HealthSupply Chain Purchasing,responsible for procuring these supplies,initially relied on itsstandard practice:Focusing its efforts on the highest volume items.the U.K.health sector)serialization tracking solution for their vaccine distributionhub involving more than 15 countries,eZTracker was appointed as the solutionof choice.This project improved turnaround time,streamlined processes andhelped achieve greater operational efficiency.Corewell Health Supply Chain,with clinician input,created an early warning score(EWS)for approximately 12,000 medical supply SKUs,resulting in a proactiveplanning process addressing potential backorders,recalls and product inventorymonitoring.These actions reduced disruption in critical medical supplyavailability during a worldwide supply chain crisis.The early warning score algorithm accounts for practice change requirements,substitute complexity,criticality to care,item class and item usage throughoutthe health system.Supply chain teams have realized increased efficiency,reduced overnight deliveryfees and enhanced trust and collaboration between supply chain and clinicalstakeholders.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 10 of 38The goal of EWS is to proactively identify and prioritize those items most critical toclinical operations so potential problems could be recognized early enough to avoidstock-out situations.In creating this innovative approach to backorders,CorewellHealth buyers began the backorder mitigation process when days-on-hand supplylevels fell below its score-based threshold.For high-risk items,this process wouldbegin when a backorder had been found and stock was 18 days on hand.Moderaterisk items have a threshold of 10 days on hand and low-risk items have a threshold offive days or less on hand.Benefits:Dyson From Seven Days to Seven MinutesAt the time of EWS implementation in early 2022,Corewell Health had nearly 800monthly stock-outs.Within the first five months of implementation,there was a38crease in stock-outs,avoiding roughly 300 monthly stock-outs.This datawas further verified over the next three months when monthly stock-outs hoveredbetween 300 and 325.The direct and indirect impacts of this significant improvement cannot beunderstated.Within the supply chain,avoiding stock-outs allows purchasing,sourcing,value analysis and all functional areas affected by unplanned stock-outs to focus on their daily operational priorities.While not measured,reduction of unplanned,last-minute stakeholder meetings,team members working evenings and weekends,and the elimination of stock-outdisruptions,have made significant improvements to the teams efficiency andability to drive forward other initiatives.Reduction of overnight freight and shipping costs for just-in-time substituteproducts have also been realized.EWS has not only ensured more products on shelves to take care of patients,butit has also instilled a higher degree of trust and collaboration between the supplychain teams and clinical stakeholders.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 11 of 38Starting in 2021,engineers at Dyson,the household appliance manufacturer,havebeen leading the digital transformation of the companys customer service model.During that time,its gone from a traditional return-to-base service model to a virtualservice engineer(VSE)online service model.In traditional after-sales service,customers would either send back their machines orbring them to a service center.Service would normally require seven days of cycle time,a period in which customers might become annoyed by the inability to use their Dysontechnology.Under COVID-19 restrictions,moreover,the impact on logistics,as well asthe effect of interruptions,could mean an even worse customer experience.Dysons engineers believed that a digital solution could be a more effective andefficient way to address customer complaints,while also allowing the company tohave more direct communication with consumers.After all,Dyson had observed thatmore than 30%of the consumer complaints were about technology awareness ormisuse of products,not quality or performance issues,which would necessarily requirea return-to-base model of service.What makes the VSE solution unique is the way it engages with customers.Instead ofwaiting for days without a visual on products and the repair process,customers areinvited at their consent and with their privacy protected into a video chat withDyson engineers.These engineers show them how products can be best used andoffer tips that consumers might find helpful in daily life.This one-to-one livepresentation not only helps build up customers self-service capabilities and reduce theoverall number of complaints and cost,but it also helps to improve Dyson engineersskill set in communicating and better understanding customer needs.Benefits:Pfizer An Accord for a Healthier WorldThe VSE model has reduced service time significantly,from seven days to sevenminutes.The program had far-reaching financial impacts,saving the company$20million.It also helped Dyson in cutting 4,000 tons of carbon emissions through a muchreduced use of packaging and freight in three years.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 12 of 38Patients incomes shouldnt affect health outcomes,andgeography shouldnt impact quality of care.Yet for asmany as 1.2 billion people living in lower-income countries,healthcare investment remains highly inequitable,andessential medicines and vaccines take four to seven years longer to reach them,if theybecome available at all.People living in these countries are disproportionatelyimpacted by noncommunicable diseases(NCDs).Pfizer believes that better health is possible for everyone everywhere and that allpeople deserve access to high-quality,safe and effective healthcare solutionsirrespective of income or geography.That is why the company came together withgovernments and other entities to launch An Accord for a Healthier World.In partnership with governments and global health partners,Pfizer aims to addresssome of the challenges and systemic barriers that limit or prevent equitable access tomedicines and vaccines.The company plans on providing breakthrough preventionand treatment options for millions of people impacted by deadly infectious diseaseslike COVID-19 and pneumonia,as well as certain cancers and rare and inflammatorydiseases.Benefits:An Accord for a Healthier World(AAHW)is an initiative by Pfizer focused onreducing the health inequities that exist between many lower-income countriesand the rest of the world.The company does this by providing Pfizers patented,high-quality medicines and vaccines available in the U.S.or EU on a not-for-profitbasis.Partners and participating governments collaborated to identify quick andefficient regulatory pathways and procurement processes to reduce time taken tomake new medicines and vaccines available in these countries.Pfizers supply teams worked quickly always with safety,quality andcompliance at top of mind to deliver the first medicines to help patients inRwanda.This delivery was an outcome of a successfully orchestrated supplystrategy,designed to support all markets included in the Accord Program.During the first

order to meet customer needs and achieve business results.Alongwith winner Microsoft,the four other finalists this year include AB InBev,JD.com,MTNGroup and Schneider Electric.These companies:Winner:Microsoft Real-Time Visibility Enabling a Sentient Supply ChainAs the COVID-19 pandemics effects on supply anddemand waned in 2022,changing market conditionsrequired Microsofts Devices Supply Chain(DSC)team to make some difficultdecisions to enable a quick pivot from a supply-constrained environment to a fullyorder-driven model.This pivot allowed Microsoft to avoid significant inventory risks.The DSC team invested in digital transformations that created capabilities for data-driven and actionable insights to drive these decisions.Microsoft wanted to develop asentient supply chain that was“all-sensing and monitoring,”predictive and able toconsistently optimize itself in real time.This meant building end-to-end(E2E)visibility,from tracking every raw material to finished goods sales,returns and repair operations.Achieved outstanding and quantifiable business performance,thanks tobreakthrough supply chain innovations in process engineering or technologyapplication.Established major visibility and agility enhancements.Built and relied on strong relationships with ecosystem partners,IT and internalcustomers.Challenged existing ways of working and piloted(as well as scaled)new,innovativeapproaches.DSC avoided$550 million-plus in inventory risks by transforming its supply chainfrom being reactive and high-touch to a sentient,all-sensing,real-time,predictiveThis research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 16 of 38Prior to this sentient supply chain transformation,these types of decisions took weeksto cycle through and were dependent on heavy manual data analyses with limitedscenario planning capabilities.There was poor E2E data coverage across the network.Data visibility was limited to just 20%of all required data points,with the remaining80%of datasets residing on multiple Microsoft Excel files,emails,IMs and MicrosoftPowerPoint slides.With a network of more than 30 different systems spread acrossthe supply chain,every business function had its own data silo.This led to inventoryand balance sheet risks,unpredictability,and an inability to remain agile and resilientin an ever-changing or volatile business environment.Benefits:supply chain.By leveraging the Microsoft Azure-based data platform,DSC captures more than50 million data points per day,from raw materials to end customers,creating asingle data source and eliminating data silos.Through a suite of self-serve analytics,DSC converts insights from real-time andnear-real-time signals into actionable intelligence.In addition,business processesare now set up to act on the data,risks and opportunities,helping the business bemore agile,resilient and proactive.At present,this innovation provides 92%end-to-end data visibility and datacoverage(up 70%).Robust data coverage across businesses has beenfoundational to this transformational journey.Currently,DSC operates with 99.9ta availability and uptime(up 49.9%).Before the pandemic,inaccurate,delayed or incomplete data was commonplacenearly 50%of the time.The cycle time for making supply decisions was reduced from more than eightweeks to a few days in four years.Inventory cost avoidance was up$550 million in 2022,and improved datavisibility allows managers to make quick and optimal inventory decisions.Within a four-year

lines:Many of itsmachines come from different suppliers and represent a wide range of ages andtechnologies.To solve this problem,the Supply Transformation team needed todevelop a line balance optimization solution that could increase efficiency inpackaging lines while also being agnostic in terms of automation to effectivelycommunicate with machines from different vendors.Additionally,there was a realthirst to improve technical ownership and augment the freedom to innovate amongfrontline operators.In response,AB InBev developed a homegrown,intelligent line balance optimizationtool called Segue,which optimizes packaging line speed to smooth out microstopsand increase line efficiency by 2%to 4%.Segue relies on real-time artificial intelligence(AI)and is entered directly into the programmable logic controller.It uses big data andcoded algorithms to adapt the lines speed to the best configuration model,so that nomatter what stoppage happens on the line,the company is constantly recalibrating toan optimal speed baseline.There is an automatic retraining(every model change)based on maximum and minimum machine speed,and maintenance parameters,suchas mean time between failures and mean time to recover from failures.Benefits:On-time delivery performance has been consistently more than 97%in four years.Microsoft gained more than 80,000 productivity hours within four years.Segue is in active scale-up stage,being installed on 39 lines this year andincreasing packaging line efficiency by more than$45 million in cumulativebenefits.On the management level,Segue provided a simple and visual forecast in a real-time screen for the main packaging key performance indicators(KPIs).Theoutcomes from the project were

globalvaccination initiative.While the availability and sponsorship of vaccines appeared tomark the end of this worldwide struggle,Africa still faced a historical healthcarechallenge the safe storage and distribution of temperature-sensitive vaccines in aregion without adequate cold-chain infrastructure.Vodacom and the VodafoneFoundation worked with UNICEF and the African Vaccine Acquisition Task Team(AVATT),to procure,distribute and track delivery of equipment from supplier origin todestination hospitals and clinics in Africa.Benefits:FinalistsDiageo Tequila Agave Spraying by DroneThe Vodafone Foundation and Vodacoms donation funded 2,197 cold-chainunits(including freezers,refrigerators,cooler boxes and carriers)for allocationwithin South Africa,with a further 690 units provided for Ghana,the DRC,Tanzania and Mozambique.In South Africa,a total of 326 vaccine rollout sites were provided with cold-chainequipment.The bulk of the donation was distributed across the provinces ofGauteng,KwaZulu-Natal,Western Cape and Eastern Cape(constituting 68.4%ofthe countrys total population of 60 million),which has greatly helped strengthenSouth Africas public health cold-chain capability.Ghana was also among the first to receive its pledged cold-chain infrastructure of461 units,spread over 185 rollout sites.Mozambique was allotted 189 units of cold-chain equipment across publichealth facilities situated in the provinces of Cabo Delgado,Manica,Sofala,Nampula,Zambezia,as well as the sparsely populated Inhambane region.The remaining equipment was reserved for Tanzania and the DRC,receiving 12and 28 cold-chain units,respectively.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 25 of 38The traditional approach to spraying agave fields is employing sprinkling devicescarried by people.The challenge here is the shortage of personnel combined with thefact that spraying of agave must occur at certain times.Agave captures moisture fromthe air during the night.During the day,it closes its stomata to reduce evaporation.So,to be effective,spraying of agave must happen during the night or very early morning.This presents considerable complexity associated with spraying an isolated agavefield in complete darkness not to mention that mobilizing a high number of peopleduring this time is risky.Diageo employed an innovative approach to solving this problem in the use ofspraying drones.A single drone,handled by a single individual,can cover between 20to 30 hectares each day,equivalent to the results of 30 people under the traditionalapplication method.A single person,with the required security equipment,handles thepreparation of agricultural inputs.This means more efficiency and greater productionin terms of time and cost.Due to the higher precision in spraying,there is a reduction in cost of applying product.There is also an impact in the communities where spraying by drone is implementedas local talent is trained in the associated technologies,creating new job opportunitiesand attracting the interest of higher educational institutions to contribute to agriculturetechnification.Benefits:General Mills Regenerative AgricultureThe drone uses 70%less water in high-precision spraying than in manualapplications and has a positive impact on Diageos carbon footprint.Because of drone use over the last six months,Diageo has saved 2 million litersof water and it is expected that water savings for 2022 will be in the region of 3.2million liters.Health and safety are Diageos top priorities and drone use supports this as asafer method of water spraying and minimizes the potential for lost-timeaccidents.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 26 of 38Climate change threatens agricultural production boththrough sudden shocks,like catastrophic weather,andgradually escalating pressures,such as shiftingtemperature and precipitation patterns.These risks arecompounded by the continued degradation of naturalresources.The food system accounts for one-third of all greenhouse gas emissions,with around 80%coming from agriculture and conversion of natural lands tofarmland.General Mills is one of the first companies to commit to advance regenerativeagriculture 1 million acres of farmland by 2030 and is focused on creatingresources to support farmers on their journey.General Mills defines regenerativeagriculture as a holistic,principles-based approach to farming and ranching that seeksto strengthen ecosystems and community resilience.The company is accelerating efforts in key regions,or“supply sheds,”where it sourcesits ingredients versus supply chain only,which supports broader systems change sothe entire industry can benefit.Its also out front in understanding holisticmeasurement outcomes and quantifying impacts.Key outcome areas include soilhealth and carbon sequestration,biodiversity,water quality and quantity,and farmereconomic resilience.With more than 90%of General Mills greenhouse gas emissions coming from Scope 3 the majority upstream in agriculture company leaders believe regenerativeagriculture is the best solution to reach the companys climate goals and createpositive planetary outcomes.Benefits:Today,more than 250,000 acres are enrolled in General Mills regenerativeagriculture programs,and the company expects to reach 350,000 by the end ofthis fiscal year.General Mills and Regrow Agriculture are partnering to monitor agriculturalpractices and their environmental impacts across 175 million acres of farmlandin North America,Europe and South America.This acreage represents thecompanys estimated supply sheds the regions where it sources keyingredients,like wheat,oat and dairy(within the total acreage being monitored,General Mills sources from roughly 3 million acres of farmland each year).This research note

management company,implemented a newsustainable procurement policy.The organizationssustainable procurement framework provides clear expectations and responsibilities toeveryone in the supply chain,from its procurement business to its suppliers.These expectations cover the entire scope of the environmental,social and governance(ESG)pillars.It facilitates strong governance,policies,processes and interventions toidentify all current and potential impacts of supplier operations on society andinternalizes supplier engagement to remediate impact.In encouraging Schneiderssuppliers to become sustainable change agents,the policy creates a multiplier effectacross the companys own ecosystems and customer networks as they embark ontheir transformation journey.Schneiders sustainable procurement framework not only sets expectations andresponsibilities,it also provides an in-depth support framework.This is done througheducational materials,one-on-one support,on-site support,digital suite and more toenable the companys suppliers to engage and deliver quickly on the sustainabilitytopics Schneider prioritizes.Benefits:For every$1 contributed toward regenerative agriculture,approximately$5 inadditional social,environmental,and economic value is generated for farmers,taxpayers,community members and society broadly(including more than$2directly for farmers).Regenerative agriculture has the promise to deliver a massive social return oninvestment.As part of the Zero Carbon Project,1,016 Schneider suppliers have formallycommitted to reduce carbon emissions in line with the 1.5 degrees Celsiustrajectory.More than 70%of suppliers are first-timers and initiated emissionreduction due to the Zero Carbon Project requirement.As of September 2022,more than 80%of suppliers have quantified,and reported,their carbon footprintand achieved more than 6%average reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas(GHG)emissions for 2021.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 28 of 38Shells Supplier Energy Transition HubBy implementing a net-zero supply chain,Shell can reduceits climate impact,enable emission reductions in hard-to-abate sectors and accelerate decarbonization in countrieswhere it may not be high on the priority list.However,the challenges of getting to a net-zero supplychain are especially demanding for Shell,with tens ofthousands of individual products purchased.Supply chain emissions can be attributedto 22,000 suppliers in many countries around the globe.Prompting action at this scalecan be complex.Shells project was looking to enable the company and its suppliers touse supply chains as game changers to accelerate the energy transition.The ShellSupplier Energy Transition Hub(the Hub)was the result.The Hub is a free-of-charge,collaborative,digital platform that allows companies tosimulate progressive emission targets with help from Shell.Owing to efforts on resource conservation and establishing a circular businessmodel across commodities,suppliers have initiated transformational businesspractices.For example,36%of the packaging spend of Schneider Electric isalready converted to sustainable packaging,validated by documentary evidencecollected from suppliers.Efforts are underway to achieve 100%.At Schneider Electric,14%of materials purchased are converted to“green”materials.This includes 31%of aluminum,18%of steel and 3%of thermoplasticthat qualify under the green criteria.Schneider Electric addresses the workers rights issue in its supply base byadopting a risk-based approach and implementing various measures.About 580high-risk suppliers have been audited between 2017 and 2021,identifying morethan 7,400 noncompliances(37%safety,25%labor and human rights).Issueswere successfully remediated,improving the working conditions of about185,000 supplier employees.In 2022,785 high-risk suppliers have been assessedso far(through August,via on-site and remote assessments;the objective is toreach 4,000 audits by 2025),and corrective measures are under implementation.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 29 of 38Through the Hub,companies have access to more than 35 global,innovative,low-carbon solutions which will help them reduce their emissions.These solutions areorganized into eight categories:Renewable power,waste and recycling,fuel switch,nature-based solutions,carbon capture,renewable heat,material and processefficiency,and behavioral change.In addition,the Hub allows companies to participate in an online collaboration spacewhere they can share lessons and best practices with other companies as they embarkon a journey to reduce their emissions.Companies can keep their data anonymous,but if the data is approved for sharing,companies can compare their own emissiondata and targets with other companies in their sector or industry.This helpscompanies further chart their decarbonization journey.Benefits:People Breakthrough of the YearBack to topSuccess is measured by having active suppliers on the Hub.Suppliers aresharing their targets and providing updates on how they are working toward theirtargets.To date,Shell has supported 343 companies to estimate and set targetsin minutes,which equates to about 20%of Shells supply chain by third-partyspend.Shell believes that the platform will help accelerate the reduction of carbonemissions across global supply chains.Aside from providing meaningfulinsights,it also helps set realistic reduction ambitions,allows for best practicesharing and offers fit-for-purpose low-carbon solutions for all industries,including hard-to-abate sectors that go far beyond carbon offsetting only.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 30 of 38People make supply chains work.Fostering diversity on the supply chain team,creatingvalue for the business through the supply chain and developing capabilities across thevalue chain are keys to supply chain success.Procter&Gambles Equality and Inclusion“Saksham”Initiative in a production plant in Goa,India,won this year for enabling womento thrive in the workforce,providing a model for other countries and initiatives.The otherfour finalists include Cardinal Health,Cisco Systems,Procter&Gamble(a secondsubmission outlined below)and Shell.These companies:Winner:Procter&Gamble Equality and Inclusion:Goa Plant“Saksham”Goa is a small state in India with conservative legislativenorms that do not allow women to work in manufacturingindustries beyond a day shift(7 a.m.to 7 p.m.).Thiseffectively meant that women could not be part of Procter&Gambles 24/7 production crews;any attempt to do so had to be first worked outwith the legislative bodies governing these statutes.Goa is also home to a P&G production facility for a female-only product.Havingfemale technicians on the production floor more closely mirroring the targetconsumer was also quite critical from a business standpoint.P&G expects this willbe a starting point for getting more insights into improving its product quality andwork processes for the Goa site.Additionally,in the local community,the talent pipeline in technical training institutes istraditionally almost completely made up of male students.Primarily,this ties to yearsof cultural bias against young girls in rural areas pursuing careers,especially intechnical disciplines.The impact effectively meant P&Gs hiring strategies needed tobe reexamined if the company wanted to get female talent into its operations.That ishow P&G came up with the idea for“saksham.”Took fresh approaches to address labor tightness,enhance company culture,drivebehavioral changes in the workplace and improve employee safety.Differentiated themselves by architecting successful human interactions.Mobilized people with purpose to drive exponential results and employed technologyto drive improvement.This research note is restricted to the personal use of

recognizethem as“saksham”and achieve professional goals,and eventually become rolemodels to inspire others in the futureThis initiative pushed P&G to innovate by:The result:A comprehensive program that within six months moved from ideaconception(November 2021)to enabling a fully female shop floor production crew,thefirst of its kind in P&Gs Feminine Care business in the Asia,Middle East and Africaregion.Benefits:Working with external government agencies to address legislative barriers.Coming up with new recruiting approaches and onboarding programs.Working with its internal supply chain teams to create flexible operatingstrategies.The site gender diversity among trainees doubled from 7%to 15%;consideringonly shop floor trainees,this was a first-ever situation in the history of the Goaplant.The site maintained operational excellence and continued to deliver servicedespite external challenges during this organizational initiative.Expansion locally:This program was launched as a pilot and is now paving theway for expanding the idea to P&Gs third-party resource partners.P&G isexploring ways for them to achieve 50%gender diversity in its external partnerssupplying the Goa plant.Expansion globally:Other P&G sites in Egypt,South Africa,Japan and Pakistanhave taken inspiration from the Goa program and have started to chart out theirown customized programs based on the basic framework that the Goa plantfollowed.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 32 of 38FinalistsCardinal Health Flexible Staffing for the Workforce of TodayCardinal Health is a distributor of pharmaceuticals,as wellas manufacturer and distributor of medical and laboratoryproducts.The company serves more than 60,000 U.S.pharmacies and nearly 90%of U.S.hospitals,with annual revenue of$163 billion infiscal year 2021.In 2013,the United States was forecast to have 165 million workers by 2022.In 2019,the workforce hit a high of 152 million workers,and then the COVID-19 pandemic hit.Cardinal Health needed to solve a labor mismatch where volume wasdisproportionately spread throughout the week while ensuring the company remainedan employer of choice,as profit margins in pharmaceutical distribution are usuallyrazor thin.As a result,Cardinal Health implemented flexible staffing models in four sites as apilot,two gig worker test sites and two flexible staffing platform offerings that allowedexisting employees to easily select shifts.Flexible staffing led to improvements in keyareas,specifically in overtime(OT)and on-time departure(OTD).More importantly,Cardinal Health discovered a new pool of labor that had previously been uninterestedin its distribution centers,allowing the company to flex into a new staffing model whileretaining talent,and introducing new options for better work-life balance.Benefits:The Flexible Staffing Option was piloted by Boston,Massachusetts,U.S.,and Aurora,Illinois,U.S.The Gig Worker Option was piloted in Salt Lake City and Dallas.The 90-day Flexible Staffing Option pilots kicked off well with:Aurora 196,or 85%,of its workforce downloaded the Flexible Staffing Optionapp.Boston 213 workers downloaded the app,or 81%.Boston had 113 shifts,or 936 hours,covered through Flexible Staffing Optionpostings;80%of the posted shifts were covered.Acceptance rate grew to 90%.Aurora had 239 shifts covered,or 1,868 hours;89%of the posted shifts wereThis research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 33 of 38The use of the Gig Worker Option kicked off with the Dallas DC averaging 18 shifts perweek worked by independent contractors(ICs),while Salt Lake City averaged six shiftsper week.Cisco Systems Innovation Through Gamification in Data Literacy&DemandForecastingIn gamification,user engagement is driven by buildingteams,offering rewards and tracking leaderboards.Thisengagement can be used to motivate people to solvecomplex business problems.The Cisco supply chain hassuccessfully used gamification to:covered with the acceptance rate eventually at 99%.Both DCs used the app for general communications to Flexible Staffing Optionusers,such as employee anniversaries,performance recognition,safetyreminders and well wishes.Aurora sent 24 messages and Boston sent 14 in a 90-day period.Both DCs experienced 100%coverage for their postings,with the ICs quicklyapplying to cover the shifts.Shift completion predictability By the end of the pilots,shift end times at thebeginning of the week were averaging 85%completed within 90 minutes of theexpected end time versus 30%prior to the pilots.This was despite an increase involume of 15%over the same time frame,and shifts that exceeded 150 minutespast the end time were less than 8%.Build a confident,data-driven community with self-serve analytics skills.Harness crowdsourced wisdom to improve demand forecast accuracy.Attract diverse talent.Foster innovation.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 34 of 38The Product Operations team has observed an organizationwide mindset shift interms of data literacy.The self-serve data tools usage has increased to 47%,three-fourths of the team(73%)completed internal live training in data fundamentals,and26%of employees continue to improve their data skills with additional training andcertifications.The Demand Planning team runs a gamification-based program,“Cisco ForecastLeague.”An average of 35 teams participate in the internal competition to generate thebest demand forecast for 250 Cisco products.A recently established external programenlists undergraduate student teams from five U.S.universities to prove theirforecasting prowess.This successful program has helped introduce processinnovation,attract diverse talent and improve forecast accuracy.Benefits:Ciscos leaders believe that the true measure of success of its program has been theparticipation rate.The Data Literacy program has been incredibly successful,asparticipants desire to learn more and develop additional data skills grew:73%of the organization completed the Business Intelligence 101 certification.Seventy-six percent of the organization participated in biweekly data challengesthroughout the fiscal year.Across the organization,43%of participants were awarded the novice levelbadge,24%were awarded the adept level badge and 13%were awarded theexpert level badge.For the internal Cisco Forecast League,the participation has been impressive.Inthe beginning,the newness of the concept attracted more than 68 teams acrossthe supply chain organization.The global pandemic and work-from-homemandates impacted the participation rates around 2021,but the teamresponsible for the program added exciting features to improve participation.Now,participation is increasing quarter over quarter.In terms of forecast performance,the winning teams have consistently providedforecasts 3%to 5%more accurate than the dedicated demand planners forecastfor the same products.The external Cisco Forecast League started in late fiscal 2022 with a singleThis research note is restricted to

into supplychain operations.Standard recruiting processes mayoverlook,or might inhibit,people in this group.For example,85%of people on the autism spectrum are unemployed.In response,Procter&Gamblecreated an alternative,but equitable,hiring process more friendly to neurodiverseindividuals.Procter&Gamble matched more than 30 neurodiverse individuals with supply chainroles,creating career opportunities from a pilot in 2019 to 2020 into a scale-up in 2021to 2022.The program provides meaningful work in an inclusive workplace and turnsthis social challenge into a win-win situation for the business,the organization and theindividuals.This program was piloted in Costa Rica,Warsaw,Poland,Cincinnati,Ohio,U.S.,and Singapore.In Singapore,this program was called“Beautiful Minds.”By tapping into the special talents of neurodiverse individuals,and creating anenvironment where they can thrive,P&G was able to make a positive impact to thebusiness,organization,individuals and communities in which they live and work.While this work started in the supply chain(across operations and IT),there are plansto expand into marketing and R&D roles based on the lessons.The vision of Beautiful Minds was to fully unleash neurodiverse talent by providingmeaningful work in an inclusive workplace and,in doing so,move to the next level ofsocial responsibility.The program team strongly believed in the importance of diversityof thought because this helps P&G leverage people with different backgrounds,perspectives,strengths and experiences to maximize results.With personal passion,the team was highly engaged in the project,coping with external challenges likeCOVID-19 and remote working conditions as this project started.All in all,this programenabled P&G to:university and five teams.This fiscal year,it has expanded to five universitiesacross the United States with a plan to add more the next year.As participationgrows,so will the influx of new generations of talent to the Cisco supply chain.Bring in the right talent for specific technical roles.Provide meaningful career opportunities for neurodiverse talents.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 36 of 38Benefits:Shell Professional Drivers:Visibly ValuedShell has long recognized the vital part its drivers play inensuring continued safe deliveries to customers.To createa strong professional driver value proposition,the ShellRoad Transport Team in Germany launched a campaign tocelebrate its 800 or so existing drivers and create aplatform to attract new ones.The market for professional heavy and dangerous goods drivers is experiencing asignificant shortage of personnel.The current average age of drivers in Germany isaround 50-plus,which means that in the next few years a high number of drivers willretire.This dilemma will impact the ability of companies to continue deliveries tocurrent customers,but also limit the opportunity for further growth.The constraints inensuring robust supply chains through safe road transport operations will not onlyaffect businesses but will,in the longer term,result in broader societal impact.Currentforecasts show that in Germany alone it is expected that as many as 40,000professional drivers will retire every year,while the road transport industry is onlyattracting 15,000 new drivers per year.Further strengthened P&Gs culture of inclusion.To date,P&G has matched more than 30 neurodiverse talents with supply chainroles,creating career opportunities for them.For the neurodiverse individuals,being employed helps with quality of life,influencing social status,providing a source of income and helping create asocial network.What did not change,but was reaffirmed,was the business value of operating aninclusive workplace,welcoming diversity in all forms and providing anenvironment where everyone can succeed.This research note is restricted to the personal use of xxx.Gartner,Inc.|G00785139Page 37 of 38The transport teams campaign produced custom truck branding,celebrating drivers byusing their pictures together with special slogans,which included“For You on theRoad”or“A Strong Team”on one side of heavy goods vehicles(large trucks).Advertisements on the other side(aimed at schools)promoted truck driving as anexciting career opportunity.In addition,a digital screen campaign in more than 600service stations was launched to hire new drivers and attract young,talented people.Benefits:Recommended by the AuthorSome documents may not be available as part of your current Gartner subscription.Supply Chain Executive Report:Power of the Profession Supply Chain AwardsThe ability to attract additional drivers has delivered,in the short term,significantly stronger performance a decrease in stock-outs and an increase incommercial value.The campaign has succeeded in sending a clear and compelling message tohauler companies that Shell is willing and able to step up and provide tangiblesupport with significant industry challenges,which has served to build evenstronger partnerships.In addition,36 young people have now signed up to start their training asprofessional drivers.Most importantly,the campaign has elevated the status of professional driversand created a sense of true pride in the driver community.Shells profiles of realpeople doing extraordinary work every day have resulted in drivers feeling seenand valued.As a result,drivers feel confident to speak up and be heard.Finally,this campaign is making a very positive contribution to health and safetyperformance.By creating a more psychologically safe environment,drivers arespeaking up and sharing personal stories when potential incidents take place.This allows everyone to really learn from potential incidents and near misses,and to put sustainable mitigations in place.Shell is helping to create safer roadsfor all.This research note is restricted to

TechnologyInc.The offering price of our ordinary shares in this offering is expected to be between$5.00 and$6.00 per share.Prior to thisoffering,there has been no public market for our ordinary shares.We have applied to list our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol“RYET.”There is no assurance thatsuch application will be approved,and if our application is not approved,this offering will not be completed.Investing in our ordinary shares is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk.Before buying any shares,youshould carefully read the discussion of material risks of investing in our ordinary shares in“Risk Factors”beginning on page22 of this prospectus.We are an“emerging growth company”as defined under the federal securities laws and,as such,will be subject to reducedpublic company reporting requirements.See“Prospectus SummaryImplications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and aForeign Private Issuer”for additional information.We are not a Chinese operating company but a Cayman Islands holding company with no operations.We conduct substantiallyall of our operations in the Peoples Republic of China,or the PRC or China,through Jiangxi Ruanyun,the variable interest entity(VIE)and its subsidiaries.We do not have any equity ownership of the VIE,instead,we have the power to direct the activities andreceive the economic benefits and absorb losses of the VIEs business operations through certain Contractual Arrangements(asdefined below)and the VIE is consolidated for accounting purposes.This structure involves unique risks to investors.This VIEstructure is used to provide contractual exposure through the Contractual Arrangement to foreign investment in Chinese-basedcompanies where Chinese law prohibits direct foreign investment in the operating companies.Under the Contractual Arrangements,cash is transferred among the Company,Rollingthunder Technology(Jiangxi)Co.,Ltd,orour WFOE,Soft Cloud and the VIE,in the following methods:(i)dividends or other distributions may be paid by Rollingthunder Jiangxi,or our WFOE,to the Company through our HongKong subsidiary;(ii)Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc.,or Ruanyun(the Cayman Islands holding company)transfers proceeds raised through thisoffering or any other offering we conduct at this level to our wholly owned subsidiary,Soft Cloud Technology Limited,or SoftCloud,which in turn transfers such proceeds down to the WFOE in the form of capital contributions or shareholder loans,as the casemay be,which in turn transfers such proceeds in the form of loans to the VIE pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements,for thepurpose of conducting business operations;(iii)funds,may be paid by Jiangxi Ruanyun,or the VIE,to Rollingthunder Jiangxi,or our WFOE,as

this prospectus,no dividends or distributions have been made to the respective shareholders of suchentities.For the foreseeable future,the VIE intends to keep any future earnings to re-invest in and finance the expansion of itsbusiness.We currently do not maintain any cash management policies that dictate the purpose,amount and procedure of cashtransfers among the Company,Soft Cloud,our WFOE,the VIE,or investors.Rather,the funds can be transferred in accordance withapplicable PRC laws and regulations.For more details,see“Regulations-Regulations Relating to Foreign Exchange Registration ofOverseas Investment by PRC Residents.”i2023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm4/284 The ordinary shares offered in this offering are shares of our offshore holding company,Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc.,insteadof shares of the VIE or its subsidiaries in China.For a description of the Contractual Arrangements,see“Corporate History andStructureContractual Arrangements.”Based on the Contractual Arrangements,we account for Jiangxi Ruanyun as a VIE.Morespecifically,we have the power to direct the activities of Jiangxi Ruanyun and become the primary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyunfor accounting purposes through such Contractual Arrangements,which are less effective than direct ownership.Our power to directthe activities of Jiangxi Ruanyun and our position of being the primary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyun for the accounting purposesare limited to the conditions that we met for consolidation of Jiangxi Ruanyun under U.S.GAAP.Such conditions include that(i)wehave the power to direct the activities that could most significantly affect the economic performance of Jiangxi Ruanyun and(ii)weare entitled to receive benefits and obligated to absorb losses from Jiangxi Ruanyun that could potentially be significant to JiangxiRuanyun.Accordingly,we consolidate the accounts of Jiangxi Ruanyun for the periods presented herein for accounting purposes,inaccordance with Regulation S-X-3A-02 promulgated by the SEC,and ASC Topic 810-10,Consolidation:Overall.Only if we meetthe aforementioned conditions to be the primary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyun under U.S.GAAP,we will consolidate JianxiRuanyun and Jiangxi Ruanyun will be treated as our consolidated affiliated entities for accounting purposes.As a result of the VIE structure,investors may never directly hold equity interests in the VIE.We acknowledge that Chineseregulatory authorities could disallow this structure,which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or value ofour ordinary shares,including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.Furthermore,the Contractual Arrangements have not been tested in a court of law.For a description of the ContractualArrangements,see“Corporate History and StructureOur Contractual Arrangements.”Please also see our“Risk Factors”for adetailed discussion of risks facing the Company and the offering as a result of this structure.We currently conduct substantially all of our operations in,and substantially all of our revenue is generated in,the PRC.Accordingly,changes in economic,political,and legal environments in the PRC can significantly affect our business,including ourfinancial condition,results of operations,and business prospects.Policies,regulations,rules,and the enforcement of laws of theChinese government can have significant effects on economic conditions in the PRC and therefore,corporate profitability.Ourprofitability in the PRC may be adversely affected by changes in policies,regulations,rules,and the enforcement of laws by theChinese government,which changes may be announced or implemented with little or no advance notice.Recently,the Chinese government promulgated a series of statements and actions to regulate business operations in China withlimited advance notice,including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market,enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structures,adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurityreviews,and expanding efforts with respect to anti-monopoly enforcement.For example,the General Office of the CentralCommittee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the“Opinions on SeverelyCracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities According to Law”,or the Opinions,which were made available to the public on July6,2021.The Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen administration over illegal securities activities and the need to strengthensupervision with respect to overseas listings of Chinese companies.Moreover,the Cyberspace Administration of China,or the CAC,promulgated the Cybersecurity Review Measure that became effective on February 15,2022,which extend the scope ofcybersecurity review to data processing operators engaging in data processing activities that affect or may affect national security,including listing in a foreign country,and require a mandate clearance of cybersecurity review to be completed by network platformoperator that possess personal information of more than 1 million users.The Opinions,the Cybersecurity Review Measure and anyrelated implementing rules that have been enacted or to be enacted may subject us to compliance requirements in the future,such asregulatory review of overseas listing of China-based company and cybersecurity review.As of the date of this prospectus,the actualnumber of users personal information used by the VIE and its subsidiaries is well below one million(based on our owncalculations).The users personal information used by the VIE and its subsidiaries is authorized by the entity that owns and controlsit.Therefore,Jiangxi Ruanyun is not subject to this review.On July 7,2022,CAC promulgated the Measures for the SecurityAssessment of Data Cross-border Transfer,effective on September 1,2022,which requires the data processors to apply for datacross-border security assessment coordinated by the CAC under the following circumstances:(i)any data processor transfersimportant data to overseas;(ii)any critical information infrastructure operator or data processor who processes personal informationof over 1 million people provides personal information to overseas;(iii)any data processor who provides personal information tooverseas and has already provided personal information of more than 100,000 people or sensitive personal information of more than10,000 people to overseas since January 1st of the previous year and;and(iv)other circumstances under which the data cross-border transfer security assessment is required as prescribed by the CAC.As of the date of this prospectus,we believe the VIE andits subsidiaries have none of the aforesaid circumstances.Therefore,the VIE and its subsidiaries are currently not subject to the datacross-border security assessment.However,if such assessment is required in the future,we cannot assure you that we will completethe relevant procedure on a timely basis.See“Risk Factor We are subject to a variety of laws and other obligations regarding dataprotection,any failure to comply with applicable laws and obligations could have a material adverse effect on our business,financial condition and results of operations.”ii2023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm5/284 In addition,on December 24,2021,the CSRC,issued the Provisions of the State Council on the Administration of OverseasSecurities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies(Draft for Comments),or the Draft Administrative Provisions,and theMeasures for the Filing of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies(Draft for Comments),or the DraftFiling Measures,which require China-based companies seeking overseas offering and listing shall file with the CSRC within threeworking days after making initial applications with overseas stock markets for initial public offerings or listings.As of the date ofthis prospectus,the PRC laws and regulations that currently in effect do not explicitly require us to seek approval from the CSRC forour overseas listing plan,however,we will be required to file with the CSRC prior to our listing on NASDAQ if the DraftAdministrative Provisions and the Draft Filing Measures have been fully enacted in the foreseeable future.See“Risk Factor Draftrules for China-based companies seeking for securities offerings in foreign stock markets was released by the CSRC for publicconsultation.While such rules have not yet come into effect as of the date of this prospectus,the Chinese government may exert moreoversight and control over overseas public offerings conducted by China-based issuers,which could significantly limit or completelyhinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Ordinary Shares tosignificantly decline or become worthless.”.Since these statements and regulatory actions are new,it is highly uncertain how soonlegislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailedimplementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated,if any,and the potential impact such modified or new laws andregulations will have on our daily business operation,the ability to accept foreign investments or list on a U.S.exchange.Given thecurrent regulatory environment in the PRC,we are still subject to the uncertainty of different interpretation and enforcement of therules and regulations in the PRC adverse to us,which may be announced or implemented with little or no advance notice,and whichmay materially and adversely impact our results of operations,may limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offersecurities to investors,and/or may cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.See“Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Business and Industry.”On December 18,2020,the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act,or the HFCAA,was signed into law,requiring aforeign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the Public Company Accounting OversightBoard,or the PCAOB,is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOBinspection.If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the companys auditors for three consecutive years,the issuers securities areprohibited to trade on a national exchange.Our auditor,Friedman LLP,the independent registered public accounting firm that issuesthe audit report included elsewhere in this prospectus,as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and afirm registered with the PCAOB,is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspectionsto assess our auditors compliance with the applicable professional standards.Our auditor is headquartered in Manhattan,New York,and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis.The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of ourauditor and our auditor was not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16,2021,whichdeterminations were vacated on December 15,2022.Pursuant to the HFCAA,the SEC has the power to identify issuers whose auditors the PCAOB is unable to inspect orinvestigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in a foreign jurisdiction,or a PCAOB-Identified Firm.The SECwill provisionally identify any such issuer as a“Commission-Identified Issuer”on the SECs website.If we are identified as aCommission-Identified Issuer by the SEC,we may be subject to restrictions under such rules including prohibitions on the trading ofour shares,either temporarily or indefinitely.On June 22,2021,the U.S.Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act,or the AHFCAA.Ifsigned into law,the AHFCAA would decrease the number of non-inspection years under the HFCAA from three years to two,thusreducing the time period before an issuers securities may be prohibited from trading or may be delisted.On August 26,2022,the PCAOB announced that it had signed a Statement of Protocol,or the SOP,with the China SecuritiesRegulatory Commission and the Ministry of Finance of China.The SOP,together with two protocol agreements governinginspections and investigations,or together,the SOP Agreement,established a specific,accountable framework to make possiblecomplete inspections and investigations by the PCAOB of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong,as required underU.S.law.On December 15,2022,the PCAOB announced that it was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong completely in 2022.The PCAOB vacated itsprevious 2021 determinations that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firmsheadquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong.However,whether the PCAOB will continue to be able to satisfactorily conductinspections of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong is subject to uncertaintyand depends on a number of factors out of our,and our auditors,control.The PCAOB is continuing to demand complete access inmainland China and Hong Kong moving forward and is already making plans to resume regular inspections in early 2023 andbeyond,as well as to continue pursuing ongoing investigations and initiate new investigations as needed.The PCAOB has indicatedthat it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCAA if needed.If the PCAOB in the futureagain determines that it is unable to inspect and investigate completely auditors in mainland China and Hong Kong,then thecompanies audited by those auditors would be subject to a trading prohibition on U.S.markets pursuant to the HFCAA.iii2023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm6/284 For further

reasoning and other specific characteristics.This allows us to provide both scientific andempirical assessments to each student and recommend solutions based on his/her individual learning needs.In July 2021,the China central government officially released the“Opinions on Further Reducing the Burden of ExcessiveHomework and Off-Campus Tutoring for Students Undergoing Compulsory Education”,or the Opinions,policy,seeking to decreaseworkloads for students and overhaul the private tutoring sector.In the policy,it states that elementary students must finish homeworkin-school,and junior high school students finish most of their homework in-school.Our SmartHomework solution provides in-school service aiming to help students to study more efficiently.Under the background of the Opinions,local governments havequickly chosen our SmartHomework solution to push new reforms into effect throughout Jiangxi Province.Academic Proficiency Test Chinas Academic Proficiency Test is an official assessment across all subjects taught in school.There are eleven subjectassessments which include Chinese,Math,English,Physics,Chemistry,Biology,Political

APT assessments would be included as part of the high school admission process,whilethe high school APT is a pre-requisite for obtaining ones high school diploma.22023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm20/284 We began providing computer-based APT services for the subject of Biology in 2013 and expanded to all eleven subjects in2017.Today,our SmartExam platform covers all aspects of the APT test,from attesting and management of systems,to buildingtest contents,and constructing certified test centers.We also provide services to help testing Authorities with staff training,onsitemanagement to academic proficiency evaluations.As of November 30,2022,we believe we are the only computer-basededucational APT assessment vendor in China for all subjects.Chinas education ministry promoted local education authorities to adopt computer-based APT to replace traditional paper-based exam gradually.Influenced by the“Opinions on Further Reducing the Burden of Excessive Homework and Off-CampusTutoring for Students Undergoing Compulsory Education”,or the Opinions,policy,high school and college admission decisions willtake APT grades and multi-dimensional assessment into consideration.In such,for junior or senior high school students,APT scoresare required for higher level education admissions.For senior high school graduates seeking to study overseas,official APT gradesare widely accepted by institutions around the world.Test Preparation Building on the APT assessment services,we have introduced test-preparation books and adaptive practice applications andbegan to invest in building smart devices that further enhance students learning experience and efficiency.This is how wedeveloped APT practices books for each subject and invented Jiangxi Ruanyun Smart-Headset for English assessments.Studentswho take any mock test in our online practice application have access to video lessons and will receive personalized study resourcesbased on their test results.Industry Background Chinas National Peoples Congress enacted the PRC Educational Law which sets forth provisions relating to the fundamentaleducation system in China.This includes the school system of preschool,elementary school,middle,or secondary,school and highschool(namely,K-12),with grades from one through twelve being compulsory education.The law also stipulates a system ofeducational certificates,which require taking a series of tests and pass certain exams.The pinnacle of such exams is the NationalCollege Entrance Exam,or NCEE,also known as Gao Kao.Today,China has the largest K-12 education system in the world.According to Ministry of Education of the Peoples Republicof China,as of December 2021,Chinas K-12 system had over 184 million students,including approximately 108 million primaryschool students,50 million secondary school students and 26 million high school students across over 221,800 schools.Over the past 40 years,particularly since China resumed the NCEE in 1977,Chinas K-12 educational system has beenshouldering the responsibility of both providing public education to the masses as well as training and selecting a large number ofqualified professionals.In July of each year,millions of Chinese high school graduates take the NCEE.Their NCEE scores willdetermine whether the students have the option to continue with their more advanced studies in colleges and universities,or enterinto the general workforce,most occupations of which do not have college degree requirements and therefore inadvertently sustain alesser social and economic status.Hence,the term“one test for life”describes Gao Kao as an existential turning point in millions ofyoung peoples lives each year in China.From 2019 to 2020,according to the China National Bureau of Statistics as of Ministry of Education of the Peoples Republicof China,Chinas national education expenditure was 4.22%of GDP,which represented a higher level of such spending amongdeveloping and developed countries alike.In 2020,Chinas educational spending was 4.2 trillion RMB(approximately$640 billion),a year-over-year growth of 7.10%.Since 2016,the Education Ministry of China has made various attempts to reform Chinaseducational system,aiming to rid the“one test for life”reality and to evaluate students performance and potentials on a morecomprehensive basis.This is a reform of tremendous undertaking and is expected to be carried out to each provincial and municipallevel within China.However,in its early stage,Chinas well-intended and sometimes heavy-handed approach to such a reform hasnot been without adverse consequences,which we believe mainly stem from the following issues:The distribution of educational resources is uneven in China.In a modern and fast-paced society,the traditional ways of teaching,learning and academic evaluation are proven lessefficient,effective and fair.Without a new and more holistic approach in place,standardized test-taking still dominates students performance evaluation.32023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm21/284 Consequently,the competition for resources and the emphasis on the results of standardized tests have only intensified,whiletech-savvy students and parents look to the internet for gaining a competitive edge and academic advancement.As a result,centraland local governments alike are seeking solutions to this matter.According to iResearch as of December 2020,the market size ofChinas K-12 after-school tutoring education reached 530 billion RMB(approximately$79 billion)as of 2020.Meanwhile,according to the China Statistics Bureau,Chinas household education and entertainment expenditure grew at a compound rate ofover 7%from 2014 to 2021.We aspire to be the preferred A.I.educational technology provider to Chinas approximate 184 millionK-12 students in about 221,800 schools.According to Duojing Caiptal as of December 2019,the traditional K-12 student homework book market alone reached overRMB102.3 billion(approximately$16 billion)in 2019.With the recent digital transformation ongoing in Chinas school system andadvanced AI technologies,personalized homework books are introduced to help students study efficiently.Personalized homeworkbooks can be in both digital and paper-based format.Such books contain custom-made learning and practice content for each studentby classification according to students current learning situations and learning abilities.They can be delivered to students online orpublished and delivered in paper by demand.We believe this new form of publishing is becoming one of the most sought aftermodels with an expected RMB80 billion(approximately$12 billion)in market size in 2026 according to the Company estimates andcalculations.In addition,the computer-based APT is also setting a new trend for the test-preparation market.As the assessment is changingfrom paper-based to computerized format,the test preparation solutions and smart devices markets is experiencing rapid growth.Thecomputer-based assessment is currently being implemented in one province(Jiangxi)as the pilot project for the China EducationDepartment.According to iResearch,as of September 2022,the smart learning device market reached RMB35.3 billion(approximately$5.4 billion)in 2020 and is expected to grow to over RMB 66 billion(approximately$10.25 billion)as thecomputer-based test format becomes mainstream.Our Strengths-What Sets Us

foregoing Contractual Arrangements,we account for Jiangxi Ruanyun as a VIE.We have the power to direct theactivities of Jiangxi Ruanyun and become the primary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyun for accounting purposes through suchContractual Arrangements,which are less effective than direct ownership.Our power to direct the activities of Jiangxi Ruanyun andour position of being the primary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyun for accounting purposes are limited to the conditions that we metfor consolidation of Jiangxi Ruanyun under U.S.GAAP.Such conditions include that(i)we have the power to direct the activitiesthat could most significantly affect the economic performance of Jiangxi Ruanyun,and(ii)we are entitled to receive benefits andobligated to absorb losses from Jiangxi Ruanyun that could potentially be significant to Jiangxi Ruanyun.Accordingly,weconsolidate the accounts of Jiangxi Ruanyun for the periods presented herein,in accordance with Regulation S-X-3A-02promulgated by the SEC,and ASC Topic 810-10,Consolidation:Overall.Only if we meet the aforementioned conditions to be theprimary beneficiary of Jiangxi Ruanyun under U.S.GAAP,we will consolidate Jianxi Ruanyun and Jiangxi Ruanyun will be treatedas our consolidated affiliated entities for accounting purposes.We do not hold any equity interests in the VIE,we control the VIE through the Contractual Arrangements,the ContractualArrangement may not be effective in providing control over the VIE,and which may involve inherent risks and uncertaintiesincluding but not limited to:i)the uncertainty of the interpretation and the application of the PRC laws and regulations or any futureactions of the PRC government in this regard that could disallow the VIE structure,which may cause the Contractual Arrangementsto be invalid and unenforceable,and as a result,we may not be able to consolidate the VIE nor be entitled to treat the VIEs assets,revenue and results of operations as our assets,which would likely result in a material change in our operations and the value of ourordinary shares may depreciate significantly or become worthless;ii)there are uncertainties regarding the status of the rights ofRuanyun with respect to its Contractual Arrangements amongst Jiangxi Ruanyun,the Nominee Shareholders and the WFOE.Wemay face difficulties in enforcing the Contractual Arrangements due to legal uncertainties and jurisdictional limits,as all of ourContractual Arrangements are governed by the PRC laws and any disputes arising from the Contractual Arrangements will be solvedthrough arbitration in the PRC,the relevant PRC authorities and PRC courts may have broad discretion in dealing with the validityand enforceability of the Contractual Arrangements and the disputes thereunder,requiring us to restructure our current ownershipstructure or operations,imposing conditions or requirements that we or the VIE may not be able to comply,imposing fines orpenalties on us or the VIE,which may severely affect our business operations and financial conditions,and may significantly impairthe rights of the holders of our ordinary shares;iii)If we had equity interests in the VIE,we would be able to exercise our rights as ashareholder to effect changes in the board of directors of the VIE,which in turn could implement changes,subject to any applicablefiduciary obligations,at the management and operational level,however,we rely on the performance of the VIE and its shareholdersto fulfill their obligations under the Contractual Arrangements for us to exert control over and act as the primary beneficiary of theVIE;although Jiangxi Ruanyun does not have termination rights pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements,it could terminate,orrefuse to perform its obligations under,the Contractual Arrangements,and the shareholders of the VIE may not act in the bestinterests of our Company and may also refuse to perform their obligations under the Contractual Arrangements,which would resultin the distractions of our management team and incur substantial cost for us to seek for any possible legal remedies to enforce theContractual Arrangements,and our business operations,financial conditions and future prospects may be materially and adverselyaffected,and the value of your ordinary shares may significantly decline or become worthless.See“Risk Factors-We conduct our business through Jiangxi Ruanyun by means of Contractual Arrangements.If the PRC courtsor administrative authorities determine that these contractual arrangements do not comply with applicable laws and regulations,wecould be subject to severe penalties and our business could be adversely affected.In addition,changes in such PRC laws andregulations may materially and

the income from the VIE and its subsidiaries.The imposition of any penalties would severely disrupt our ability to conduct business and have a material adverse effect on ourfinancial condition,results of operations and prospects,and the value of your Class A ordinary shares may depreciate significantly orbecome worthless.See“Risk Factors-We conduct our business through Jiangxi Ruanyun by means of Contractual Arrangements.Ifthe PRC courts or administrative authorities determine that these contractual arrangements do not comply with applicable laws andregulations,we could be subject to severe penalties and our business could be adversely affected.In addition,changes in such PRClaws and regulations may materially and adversely affect our business.”How Cash Is Transferred Through our Organization Under the Contractual Arrangements,cash is transferred among the Company,Soft Cloud,our WFOE,and the VIE,in thefollowing manners:(i)dividends or other distributions may be paid by Rollingthunder Jiangxi,or our WFOE,to the Companythrough Soft Cloud Technology Limited,or Soft Cloud;(ii)Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc.,or Ruanyun(the Cayman Islandsholding company)transfers proceeds raised through this offering or any other offering we conduct at this level to our wholly ownedsubsidiary,Soft Cloud Technology Limited,or Soft Cloud,which in turn transfers such proceeds down to its wholly ownedsubsidiary Rollingthunder Jiangxi,or the WFOE,in the form of capital contributions or shareholder loans,as the case may be,whichin turn transfers such proceeds in the form of loans to the VIE pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements for the purpose ofconducting business operations;and(iii)funds may be paid by Jiangxi Ruanyun,to our WFOE,as service fees according to theContractual Arrangements.As of the date of this prospectus,there were no cash flows among the Company,Soft Cloud,Rollingthunder Jiangxi,or ourWFOE,and Jiangxi Ruanyun,or the VIE.As of the date of this prospectus,no dividends or distributions have been made to therespective shareholders of such entities.For the foreseeable future,the VIE intends to keep any future earnings to re-invest in and finance the expansion of our business.As a result,we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the near future.We currently do not maintain any cash management policies that dictate the purpose,amount and procedure of cash transfersamong the Company,Soft Cloud,our WFOE,the VIE,or investors.Rather,the funds can be transferred in accordance withapplicable PRC laws and regulations.For more details,see“Regulations-Regulations Relating to Foreign Exchange Registration ofOverseas Investment by PRC Residents.”92023/2/9https:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873454/000173112222002203/e4313_f-1.htm29/284 Compliance issues regarding the transfer of foreign exchange between Chinas overseas and ChinaThere are no foreign exchange controls or foreign exchange regulations under the currently applicable laws of the CaymanIslands and Hong Kong restricting the Companys ability to transfer cash between entities,across borders and to U.S.investors.The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and,in certain cases,theremittance of currency out of China.In the fourth quarter of 2016,the Peoples Bank of China and the State Administration ofForeign Exchange,or SAFE,have implemented a series of capital control measures in the subsequent months,including strictervetting procedures for China-based companies to remit foreign currency for overseas acquisitions,dividend payments andshareholder loan repayments.The PRC government may continue to strengthen its capital controls and the VIE dividends and otherdistributions may be subject to tightened scrutiny in the future.The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion ofRMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC.Therefore,we may experience difficulties incompleting the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from ourprofits.Furthermore,if our subsidiary in the PRC incurs debt on its own in the future,the instruments governing the debt mayrestrict its ability to pay dividends or make other payments.See“Regulations-Regulations Relating to Foreign ExchangeRegistration of Overseas Investment by PRC Residents”for more information.Under our current corporate structure,to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have,the Company may rely onpayments from the VIE under the Contractual Arrangements,and the distribution of dividends to Soft Cloud from WFOE,Rollingthunder Technology(Jiangxi)Co.,Ltd.Certain payments from the VIE to WFOE are subject to PRC taxes,including VAT.According to the Contractual Arrangements,WFOE is entitled to 100%of the VIEs yearly profit by providing exclusive technicalconsulting services to the VIE.The VIE shall pay the corresponding amount according to the agreement for a period of 10 yearsfrom April 8,2021.Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiary to pay dividends to its shareholders only out of itsaccumulated profits,if any,determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations.Therefore,WFOE candistribute the income obtained under the Contractual Arrangements to Soft Cloud in the form of dividends,with Soft Cloud in turndistributing such revenues to Ruanyun in the form of dividends.The Cayman Companies Act(as amended)(the Companies Act)permits dividend distributions,subject to the provisions of theCompanys amended and restated memorandum and articles of association,the payment of distributions or dividends to membersmay be made out of the share premium account provided that the Company is able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinarycourse of business immediately following the date on which the distribution or dividend is proposed to be paid.With the exceptionof the foregoing,there are no statutory provisions relating to the payment of dividends or distributions.Based upon English case law,which is regarded as persuasive in the Cayman Islands,dividends may be paid only out of profits.The distributions or dividends ofthe Company could be distributed to all shareholders respectively in proportion to the shares they held,regardless whether theshareholders are U.S.investors or investors in other countries or regions.Tax liability of VIEs profit distribution to overseas(non-China)companies Income of the WFOE comes from the exclusive technical consulting service fee paid by the VIE.According to the“VAT Law ofthe Peoples Republic of China”,the WFOE shall pay 6%value-added tax of this income.Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiary to pay dividends to the Company only out of its accumulated profits,if any,determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations.For more information on the regulation of dividendpolicy and dividend tax,please refer to“Dividend Policy.”Also,according to the current effective laws in Cayman Islands,dividends from its companies are exempt from tax.However,in accordance with the laws and regulations of the United States,U.S.investors shall pay taxes and fees on dividendincome according to regulations after receiving the dividends paid in accordance with the law.Risks Associated with Our Business Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,including risks that may prevent us from achieving our businessobjectives

cybersecurity challenges head-onInsight24 RECAI 60 PPA Index Normalized indexData and methodology27Contacts33Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6003Ben Warren RECAI Chief editor EY Global Power&Utilities Corporate Finance LeaderForeword The transition to renewable energy has become even more urgent amid soaring gas prices,geopolitical tensions,supply chain shortages and extreme weather events.DERs and smart grids will be key to securing energy supplies and getting the world to net zero by 2050.Near-term policy interventions are helping reduce risks in the system,but more regulatory support is needed across the board.Cybersecurity will need to be prioritized as energy infrastructure incorporates greater levels of new technology that rely on connectivity to the Internet of Things.Some markets are spearheading the transition disproportionately to their actual size;our new ranking aims to underline which ones they are.Key takeawaysThe need for energy resilience has never been more urgent.Ramping up renewable generation,accelerating energy diversification and increasing energy storage are global priorities amid heightened geopolitical tensions,supply chain shortages,an increase in extreme weather events and soaring natural gas prices.The collective need for resilience comes with another testing proposition:how to accelerate the integration of increasing amounts of renewable energy into grids.In this edition of RECAI,we focus on the key role distributed energy resources(DERs)and smart grids play in the energy transition.1Decentralization has been talked about for decades but,as markets seek to rapidly integrate more renewables and improve grid flexibility,it is encouraging that now,with stronger regulatory support,we are beginning to see real progress.Governments are increasingly mandating smart-grid installation,while growing policy support notably,the European Commissions REPowerEU plan and the US Inflation Reduction Act will provide subsidies and tax credits for DERs.Signals are being sent that an ideal climate is emerging for investment in DERs.2There are good signs that such near-term energy policy intervention and acceleration of renewable energy sources will reduce some of the current risks in the system.Additionally,this should offer improved visibility over what a potential power price realization will be in the next few years and support continued growth,while potentially offsetting the implications of windfall taxes.For countries to reach net zero,however,the integration of renewables must improve significantly.DERs have a vital role to play in allowing a range of green energy sources to be integrated into the grid,but delivering new and more efficient approaches to permitting,connecting and managing energy flows are particularly urgent.Another pressing issue for the renewables industry is that of cybersecurity.Smart grid technologies,which help integrate,monitor,control and steer bidirectional flows of energy,significantly heighten the risk of cyber attacks.This edition of RECAI also explores how markets can strengthen their cybersecurity strategies in the face of such a rapidly expanding threat landscape.On the ranking side,there is an important new feature in this edition:a new index,alongside the RECAI ranking,that has been normalized with gross domestic product(GDP)to control for economic size.The resulting ranking showcases which markets are performing above expectations for their GDP,creating attractive alternatives for potential investors.Morocco(normalized RECAI ranking:1,RECAI ranking:19),for example,is making use of its topographical features to build flexibility into its power system,with wind expected to overtake solar in the coming decade and pumped storage hydropower being developed in its mountainous areas.Green hydrogen,meanwhile,is seen as a key aspect of decarbonization in Chile(normalized RECAI ranking:5,RECAI ranking:17),which hopes to become a top exporter of the fuel,and Portugal(normalized RECAI ranking:8,RECAI ranking:25)is a good example of the importance of government commitment to renewables.Policy support for renewable energy sources is gathering momentum across the globe,and this is helping to reduce risk and expand opportunities.With a more energy-resilient future on the horizon,now is the time to seize the power of a more flexible energy system.Can the renewables sector seize the power of decentralization to secure a resilient future?Arnaud de Giovanni EY Global Renewables LeaderForeword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsForeword MethodologySee page 29 for RECAI methodology.TurkeyThe renewable energy market is struggling from the devaluation of the domestic currency.The markets feed-in tarrif scheme,which started in 2021,is denominated in Turkish lira,so has lost competitiveness for investors against other global schemes.-5Greece Greece awarded 538MW of capacity in its most recent renewables tender. 5IndonesiaIndonesia has issued regulations,including fiscal incentives,to encourage renewable energy investment,and has plans to retire 15GW of coal-powered generation.The high capital cost of decarbonization efforts will be supported by donor countries,including the US and Japan.ItalyThe government released a draft FER II Decree setting out new price support mechanisms,and announced 5GW of offshore wind power auctions to take place between 2023 and 2026.This follows the completion of its first utility-scale offshore wind farm. 4 3China MainlandChina Mainland is set to install a record 156GW of wind and solar capacity by the end of 2022,a 25%uplift on its previously record-breaking 2021 installations.0Kazakhstan Set to launch 40 renewable energy projects by 2025 as part of its ambitious decarbonization targets,Kazakhstan has amended its renewable energy auction prices to protect investors from currency devaluation against the US dollar. 1Spain When launching a 3.3GW renewable tender in November 2022,a budget of around 3B(US$2.99b)will be used to award up to 1.8GW of solar PV and 1.5GW of onshore wind.PV generation in the first five months of 2022 was 40%higher than in the same period of 2021. 1UKThe fourth round of the Contracts for Difference scheme has allocated 11GW of new renewable capacity at record low prices.In efforts to limit consumer energy bills and decouple renewables pricing from the gas market,the government has considered introducing a voluntary CfD for operational renewables projects.VietnamVietnam is attracting insufficient international finance to meet capacity targets due to factors such as difficult permitting procedures,price uncertainly and unbankable power purchase agreements(PPAs).RECAI

year-on-year reduction in corporate power purchase agreements(PPAs)signed since 2013GermanyThe market is seeing a distinct increase in PPAs for operational and repowered post-EEG subsidy assets.The current high price environment is allowing larger PPA revenues to compensate for maintenance or repowering costs accrued by the generator.IndiaPrevious struggles in the PPA market have taken a positive turn with the Green Access Rules,issued in July,aiming to provide long-term clarity with respect to open access costs and relaxing the eligibility limit to allow a greater range of offtakers to access the market.It also allows greater offtaker flexibility with respect to purchasing and consuming energy.JapanThe market has phased out full feed-in tariffs in favor of a feed-in premium that is sensitive to market price fluctuations,creating a consumption gap to be filled by PPAs.Following the first Japanese corporate PPA between Amazon and Mitsubishi in 2021,there has been steady growth in the market,with a number of corporates including Seven-Eleven and NTT entering into an array of off-site and on-site offtake arrangements.South AfricaThe first large-scale corporate virtual PPA in South Africa was signed recently between SOLA Group and mining and processing company Tronoz for a 200MW solar project.Other large industrial players in the market,including Sasol and Air Liquide,are in the process of procuring PPAs,reflecting the momentum building in the space.1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526272829301324561014978111315121716262018211922282523242729Following an extended period of exponential growth,the volume of power generation committed through PPAs in 2022 is set to be less than 2021,although expected to be greater than 2020.The market has shifted in favor of sellers,with high demand from corporates seeking to use PPAs as a long-term hedge against fluctuations in the wholesale power markets.However,uncertainty around government policy and rapidly changing cost profiles have left developers struggling to reach agreements on commercial terms.PPAs are becoming increasingly viewed as a valuable financial tool and a strong green credential by companies that have already gained RE100 status.The large gap between low long-term PPA prices and high short-term market prices gives corporates an early financial benefit,and developers a long-term monetary boost and flexibility when compared with a state subsidy in many markets.While current market conditions have been a stumbling block for the execution of PPAs,the fundamentals remain strong for further global market expansion.MethodologySee page 31 for PPA methodology.Increased attractiveness compared with previous indexDecreased attractiveness compared with previous indexNo change in attractiveness

focusInsightData and methadologyContactsKey developmentsThe Inflation Reduction Act,passed in August 2022,is being viewed as a game changer for the US green hydrogen industry.Tax credits of up to US$3/kg for 10 years will make green hydrogen produced in the US the cheapest form of hydrogen in the world.Green hydrogen is currently being produced in the US Northwest at US$3.73/kg,so a US$3/kg tax credit would bring the cost of production for a developer to US$0.73/kg,cheaper than blue and gray hydrogen.3Reaching this price would also make green steel cost competitive with steel made from fossil fuels,which would stimulate demand for green steel,and could spark demand for green cement and green glass made with green hydrogen.The landmark Act,which includes US$369b in spending and green energy-related tax credits,will also be a major boon for the markets solar sector.4 With a target to reach 50GW of domestic manufacturing capacity by 2030,the Acts tax credits,grants,low-cost loans and other support will play a key role in developing a full domestic solar supply chain.Last year,the US installed 23.6GW of solar capacity,a 19%increase versus 2020.5The US:Green hydrogen set for breakthrough after passing of Inflation Reduction ActRECAI ranking1No changeThe China Renewable Energy Engineering Institute,a leading think tank,has projected that the market will install a record 156GW of wind and solar power this year,up 25%from 2021,which was also a record year.The forecast predicts that 100GW of solar,50GW of onshore wind and 6GW of offshore wind will be added.In the first five months of 2022,China added 35GW of wind and solar,but installations are expected to accelerate toward the end of the year as developers and local governments push to meet annual targets.6Despite challenges to global energy security,China remains committed to accelerating its renewable energy transition,and seeks to bring emissions to a peak by 2030.Its National Energy Administration says the

auction volumes for onshore wind will be raised to 12GW annually,which would put Germany on a path to 115GW of onshore wind capacity by 2030.Solar power is expected to soar too,with a target set to reach 215GW of capacity by 2030,up from 59GW at the end of last year.This will require solar expansion to rise 22GW per year on average,up from 5.3GW last year.10The expansion of renewables will be met with the addition of 36 new grid expansion and optimization projects.Renewable energies will also be classified as an“overriding matter of public interest and public security”in Germanys

sights set on becoming a major exporter of renewable energy by 2030,through ramping up solar,onshore and offshore wind capacity,and generating export quantities of green hydrogen.The markets Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Act 2021,20 introduced in December 2021,has resulted in multiple offshore wind projects being proposed,with the federal government specifically identifying six regions that have world-class potential.21Meanwhile,the Illawarra Renewable Energy Zone in New South Wales,located about 100km south of Sydney,issued a call for registration of interest in developing large-scale projects.It has attracted AU$43b(US$28.7b)worth of potential investments,with 44 proposals received for onshore and offshore wind,solar,energy storage,pumped storage hydroelectricity,green hydrogen

annual bidding invited for projects in this region,as well as Gujarat in the northwest.After this three-year process,a project capacity of 5GW will be bid out each year until 2030.The high costs facing early offshore wind projects,combined with the low cost of onshore wind and solar power,have held back the offshore wind sector in India.To give it a boost,transmission from an offshore substation to the onshore grid will be provided by the government free of charge for all wind projects bid on before fiscal year 202930.Additionally,the first 8GW of projects will qualify for benefits such as carbon credits.23 Onshore wind has also lagged behind solar generation.From 2014 to 2021,wind capacity in India nearly doubled to 38.5GW,far behind the breakneck growth of solar during the same period,which grew more than tenfold to 39.2GW.24 Given that the market boasts a 12GW manufacturing base in the wind power sector,several lawmakers have called for its acceleration to be prioritized.25Currently,Indias renewable energy generation capacity is 160GW,but it has an ambitious target of 500GW by 2030.26 Consequently,it is looking to new emerging technologies,such as green hydrogen,to help it reach its goal.The state government of Karnataka and Indian solar developer ACME Group have promised to spend INR520b(US$6.7b)on a plant that will produce 1.2 million tonnes of green hydrogen and green ammonia per year by 2027.27Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6009Key developmentsForeword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and

significant growth in wind and solar generation.Total production from green energy reached 10.9TWh,rising from 9.7TWh a year ago.28Despite the record growth,there could be difficult times ahead for the sector,with developers required to pay for grid connections from January 2023.Previously,they were only required to pay a small down payment when applying for a connection.Now,fees will range from 20,000 to 40,000(US$19,700 to US$39,500)per megawatt,with discounts for larger projects.29 A new land tax is also planned,which will favor larger projects too.Given that solar projects need more land than wind,this will pose additional obstacles for solar developers and could spark more hybrid schemes with wind power in the future.Denmark has ambitious plans to be a net exporter of green energy by 2030.It is seeking to increase total generation from solar and onshore wind fourfold by 2030,and will bring into force procedures to reduce administrative delays.The government is also aiming for tenders for an additional 1GW to 4GW of offshore wind before the end of 2030.30Denmark:Renewables soaring despite challenging conditions on the horizon Brazil has retained its position as the leading market in Latin America for investment in renewable energy sources in the RECAI rankings.However,a weak economy is slowing the pace of uptake of renewable energy sources and has resulted in low power demand.Brazils A-4 power tender in May saw a small tender size,with renewable energy supply contracts awarded for projects with a combined capacity of 947.9MW.Total investment is estimated at BRLR$7.9b(US$1.5b).For the first time,biomass surpassed wind and solar,with 407MW of capacity awarded.Hydropower was allocated 189.7MW,wind 183.1MW and solar 166.1MW.Biomass projects sold power at BRL314.93/MWh(US$60.9/MWh),hydro earned a price of BRL281.65/MWh(US$54.5/MWh),while wind and solar sold power at BRL178.84/MWh(US$34.6/MWh).The average sale price of BRL268.16/MWh(US$51.8/MWh)marks a 50%increase on last years auction.The biggest rise was for biomass projects,with the price up more than 60%.31 The higher prices were largely attributed to national and global inflation.For wind and solar,the contracts awarded mark a major drop from last year,when 581MW of new wind capacity and 518MW of solar were awarded.In Mays auction,solar and wind technologies were placed together for the first time,as the cost of solar power had dropped significantly to make power delivery costs comparable for the two.The new wind and solar projects are required to come online by the beginning of 2026,with the start of 15-year power purchase agreements.Brazil has also taken key steps forward in developing a green hydrogen economy.In August,it established a green hydrogen secretariat to accelerate growth.32 Meanwhile,the state government of Cear,in northeastern Brazil,has signed two memoranda of understanding(MoUs)for the development of a new green hydrogen hub at the Port of Pecm.In addition to the MoUs with Nexway and Energy Vault,the state government says it is preparing to sign MoUs with four other companies for the Pecm complex.33Ports in Cear are the closest to Europe within

coal-fired power plants,which supply more than two-thirds of overall output.With high costs of coal because of sanctions on coal imports from Russia,pressure has mounted on Morocco to accelerate its green energy ambitions.As it seeks to ramp up its renewable energy generation,Morocco expects to meet its targets with the aid of technological developments in energy storage,green hydrogen and lower renewable energy costs.Morocco has been ranked by the International Renewable Energy Agency in the top five globally for potential to produce competitive green hydrogen.42 Last year,its National Hydrogen Commission unveiled a roadmap on green hydrogen and launched the Green H2 cluster,a five-hectare research and development pilot platform,with a focus on producing green ammonia.This is expected to begin in late 2023 and produce four tonnes of green ammonia daily.43Morocco:Favorable legislation will accelerate renewable energy expansionGreek lawmakers have given the green light to developers to accelerate renewables by passing legislation in June to expedite licensing for energy projects.Currently,the average time for licensing green projects is five years,but the new legislation is expected to shorten that to 14 months,with firm deadlines established,and penalties and fines for delaying the permitting process.The new law also calls for the development of at least 3.5GW of energy storage by 2030 and increased grid connections for renewables.34 The measures are expected to play a key role in helping the market reach its 2030 target of 25GW of non-hydropower renewable energy capacity.35 In addition,in July Greece kickstarted its offshore wind program by passing its first offshore wind law.It is now identifying offshore wind zones and auction criteria,and has set a target under the markets National Energy and Climate Plan(NECP)to add at least 2GW of offshore wind by 2030,most of which will be from floating offshore wind farms.36 Transmission system operators are now in the process of identifying connection possibilities for future deployments.In September,Greece awarded 538.4MW of capacity in its most recent renewables tender,with PV solar given

systems,further steps will need to be taken to boost the resilience of energy infrastructure.AnalysisIn brief The world is shifting away from centralized grid networks toward decentralized distributed energy systems.Centralized grid networks are most prevalent in developed economies,while developing economies have a different set of circumstances to consider.Regulatory integration is increasing as more markets coordinate their efforts to pursue energy security on the international level.The challenge for grid operators is having the visibility and some control over the resources to stabilize the grid when necessary.“Paul DeCotisSenior Partner,Energy and Utilities,West MonroeRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6012Stephen Auton-Smith Managing Director EY Infrastructure Advisors,LLC ContributorsAndrew Horstead EY Global Power&Utilities Lead AnalystJeff Miller EY Americas Power&Utilities Strategy LeaderPaul Micallef EY Global Digital Grid LeaderThomas J.Flaherty,III EY-Parthenon Senior Advisor,Strategy and Transactions,Ernst&Young LLPA global shift away from centralized energy generation toward decentralized distributed energy systems is underway.Decentralized energy takes various forms,including microgrids,small-scale renewables,and combined heat and power(CHP)facilities,as well as distributed energy storage and controllable loads.In contrast to conventional power-generation facilities connected to a centralized grid with power often transmitted over long distances decentralized energy is typically distributed locally.There are a number of drivers behind decentralization,including the push to decarbonize and growing concerns over energy security.Indeed,these shifts have accelerated this year against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine,which has boosted the case for decentralization while dramatically improving the cost-effectiveness of renewables as wholesale power prices have risen.DERs are being deployed rapidly,and this exposes network operators to multiple new challenges.These include cyber threats,given the higher number of attack points available as DERs proliferate.Forecasting and optimizing DERs in real time is also made more difficult,as they generate power by following the availability of natural resources rather than consumer demand.Additionally,unless properly managed,DERs can cause unstable network conditions,resulting in damage to grid assets,overuse and shortened useful asset lives.They can contribute to voltage instability and capacity constraints when low demand combines with high DER output.If they cause sudden spikes and drops in power supply,a grids voltage and frequency level can be disrupted,leading to poorer power quality.And many DERs are not visible to system operators,which makes system planning difficult because the true load being met is unknown.Lastly,network operators will come under pressure to find faster and cheaper ways to connect DERs or risk derailing the speed of the energy transition.Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6013Analysis“The interconnection of DERs on the grid is increasing,as are the types of resource being added and the locations where they are added.The challenge for grid operators is having the visibility and some control over the resources to stabilize the grid when necessary,”says Paul DeCotis,Senior Partner,Energy and Utilities,at West Monroe.“The benefits include potentially lower overall system energy costs,greater grid flexibility and the ability to ramp resources up and down as necessary,to improve reliability and enhance resiliency.”The costs of these DERs have declined,and regulatory support has increased,as governments have focused more on decarbonization and energy security.These resources offer significant potential for increased grid flexibility and complement the integration of renewables.They help reduce demand for costly,large-scale utility infrastructure such as high-voltage transmission lines and lower the number of line losses experienced because of transmission of power across distances.Decentralization is therefore considered to give rise to greater energy resilience that is,the ability to adapt to changing conditions and rapidly recover from disruptions.While decentralization is a global trend,there are regional differences in how it is being implemented.The centralized grid network is most prevalent in developed economies,while there is more exploration and implementation of alternative means of accessing electricity in developing economies,given historical electricity access deficits.This has led to off-grid solar solutions being deployed in sub-Saharan Africa,for example.In Brazil,meanwhile,regulators started encouraging consumers to install small generation units in 2012,and a regulatory framework for distributed mini-generation and micro-generation was approved in 2021.China is also a global leader in DER deployment,and this is set to grow further still as the market pursues carbon neutrality by 2060.More markets are also coordinating efforts to pursue energy security.However,major grid failures in parts of the US,extreme weather events and spiking energy prices all serve as reminders of the vulnerabilities that remain.Given this heightened concern,grid flexibility and energy security have become much more of a priority across large parts of the world.As more regions consider how to address these issues,they will need to take into account various regulatory and practical factors.Spurs to greater investmentIn the US,events such as the drought and heatwave in California in 2022,which put severe strain on the states grid,have brought into sharp focus the need for grid decentralization and resilience.California has brought in legislation to expedite the development of battery storage,including financial support and mandates for the development of new storage capacity.44 Even more significant were the extreme weather events of 2021,with the winter storm in Texas and Hurricane Ida making landfall in Louisiana later that year,both resulting in local grid failures.DER growth driversDriversDescriptionImpact on DER growthFalling technolo-gy costsWith technological advances,there has been a consistent decline in technology prices and related hardware costs.Corporate sustainabilityMany companies are setting environmental,social and governance goals to improve sustainability by increasing the use of renewable energy.Increased electricity demandAs more sectors are electrified,such as transport,the demand for electricity will increase,which will drive growth of batteries.Policy/regulatory requirementsClose to 138 countries have committed to carbon neutrality by 2070 at the latest,including the US,India and China,which are leading carbon emitters.DecarbonizationRenewable generation such as wind and solar does not release harmful emissions and reduces the need for electricity generation from fossil fuels.Grid resiliencyEnergy variability can be balanced using flexible automated grid operations,which simplifies balancing of energy supply and demand.Off-grid solutionsDERs have the capability to provide electricity access to rural and remote areas.They facilitate backup energy solutions for critical operation.Source:EY Knowledge analysis on news articles.Note:the above projections can differ as the current geopolitical situation is unfolding.Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6014AnalysisIn New Orleans,Louisiana,the desire to avoid future grid failures is spurring certain industries,municipal entities and other market participants to step up investment in decentralized energy systems.As power prices rise,additional grid flexibility also has the potential to offer some economic relief.Extreme weather events and energy shortages are also putting centralized grids under pressure elsewhere in the world,bolstering the case for decentralization.Heatwaves have had a significant impact in South Asia this year,resulting in daily blackouts,while South Africa which has long struggled with power shortages after years of underinvestment and mismanagement has been hit by unprecedented levels of power outages in 2022.Isolated incidents,such as the accident at a power plant in Taiwan in March45 that led to widespread power failures across major cities,are also highlighting grid vulnerabilities.Against the backdrop of these events and pressures on grids globally,flexibility that is,the ability of a power system to maintain stability in the face of swings in supply or demand and enhanced reliability of power supply become increasingly important.Traditionally,flexibility was provided in power systems almost entirely by controlling the supply side at major power stations.As the share of intermittent renewable generation in the energy system increases,additional flexibility is required to maintain system reliability.Customer-connected flexibility can help alleviate transmission and distribution constraints,and contribute to releasing additional capacity on both the transmission and distribution networks.Excess power generated by self-sustaining distributed systems can be stored and then used when centralized grids are hit by outages.However,given the challenges that a higher penetration of DERs can present,network operators are also under increased pressure to ensure that decentralization improves flexibility,rather than detracts from it.There are multiple pilots running across Europe to demonstrate flexibility services.However,it is of paramount importance that we bring those pilots to a business-as-usual state in order to deliver a resilient power grid.Catering to higher penetration of renewablesCarbon-intensive electricity generation is being replaced by renewables.By 2030,1 the EU and the UK will install around 510GW of new renewables,70%of which will be connected at distribution grid level.Scaling flexibility solutions are therefore needed to cancel the effects of uncertainty and variability in a system with high levels of renewables.Reducing the cost to achieve net zeroScaling flexibility services will help achieve net zero with significant cost savings.According to an analysis by the Carbon Trust and the Imperial College London,a fully flexible energy system in Great Britain has the potential to deliver material net savings of between2 9.6b and 16.7b per annum in 2050 compared across all scenarios.Cater to expanding flexible electricity demandDue to the electrification of heat,transport and industry global electricity demand is projected to increase from 23,230TWh in 2020 to 60,000TWh in 2050,an average increase of3 3.2%per year.In addition,self-generation of electricity makes managing the power system and maintaining security of supply increasingly difficult.Hence,it is important to scale flexibility services to manage intermittent generation and peak demand.Maintain system resiliency Scaling flexibility services will enable the development of a secure net-zero energy system that can operate cost-effectively in diverse situations.Demand response and thermal storage reduce electricity demand peaks,while battery storage and interconnectors help to meet remaining demand,reducing requirements for backup generation.According to the IEA4,to meet four times the amount of hour-to-hour flexibility needs,batteries and demand response should be used more extensively.Source:1 Why do

Act,which,among other measures,expands tax incentives available for renewable assets.In Europe,attention has turned to energy resilience,given the scale of upheaval in energy markets and the speed with which the continent is aiming to change its power supply sources.The war in Ukraine,and Russias response to sanctions,and the cessation of gas supplies have highlighted the risks associated with over-reliance on imports in this case,of natural gas in particular and shone a spotlight on other global markets where overreliance could become a challenge.Concerns have been raised,for example,about the fact that China dominates the manufacturing of solar panels,accounting for more than 80ross all key solar panel manufacturing stages.46 Indeed,by some estimates,it could account for between 70%and 98%of the worlds production capacity of the silicon-based raw material and components in solar panels.47 This could become a challenge for markets such as the US,which has seen its relations with China deteriorate.The US is now working to boost its domestic production of solar panels and has approximately 1GW of PV module production capacity,according to Wood Mackenzie,out of a global capacity approaching 500GW as of 2021,according to the International Energy Agency.In an effort to become more competitive,the US extended tariffs on solar products containing crystalline silicon from China in February 2022.Through the Inflation Reduction Act,it has also brought in tax incentives for the development of a more robust solar industry.In the longer term,decarbonization appears set to be a key driver of grid decentralization and modernization,especially as more entities adopt net-zero emissions targets.With that in mind,DERs are becoming increasingly popular,as they help accelerate the uptake and integration of renewables into the energy mix.AnalysisThe war in Ukraine,and Russias response to sanctions has shone a spotlight on other global markets where overreliance could become a challenge.Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisAnalysisRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6016Broadening the field for more players and approachesAs energy systems become decentralized,opportunities will be created for different types of players to participate beyond utilities alone.At the same time,DERs need to be enabled to participate in established markets such as wholesale electricity,ancillary service or capacity markets to be exposed to market prices.48 In France,grid-connected storage can deliver cloud storage,ancillary and islanding services,as well as optimization of power.In Germany,it gives the option for rooftop PV systems to be included in tenders.Around the world,the falling cost of solar generation is helping DERs to proliferate.In Africa,for example,Egypt,South Africa,Kenya,Namibia and Ghana are among the leaders when it comes to adding solar capacity.49 More than 70 markets now have net metering policies in place to support distributed solar power.These include Spain,where net metering systems above 100kW in size are allowed to share surplus power with local consumers or inject it into the grid.Some Caribbean markets have adopted hybrid net metering and feed-in policies,allowing residential consumers to offset power,while commercial consumers are required to feed 100%of the power they generate into the grid.In Turkey,legislation permitting consumers to install rooftop PVs without approval and sell excess power to distributors has been in place since 2019.Battery storage regulations are also being rolled out or updated in various markets where regulators and system operators are seeking greater flexibility.Germany leads the European residential market,with up to 150,000 new battery storage systems installed in 2021,while Australia implemented changes in wholesale market trading rules for storage projects at the end of 2021.While there are multiple applications for DER technologies operating at different levels and at varying scale,smaller players will need to proceed with caution if they are to avoid becoming subject to public utility regulations.In the US,for example,most utility regulations allow for customers to have behind-the-meter power-generating equipment.However,if some entities are supplying power,heating or cooling to other organizations,as well as meeting their own needs,this could fall within the scope of the regulations.A further challenge in the US is the fact that much of the infrastructure involved in energy systems is regulated at state level,and approaches to these regulations can vary considerably.Given the relatively limited tenure of politicians and regulators,taking a more long-term approach to challenges such as decentralization is a struggle,even as long-term emissions and decarbonization targets are adopted.Utilities and other players are piloting new technology,but because there is no firm or unified view of what the future may look like,there is a lack of coordination that could prove detrimental to efforts to roll out DERs.On the other hand,CHP and trigeneration or combined cooling,heating and power(CCHP)are emerging in the US as carbon-efficient and cost-effective options for decentralization.In many cases,there is demand for cooling rather than heating,and CCHP can provide a high volume of cooling capacity for major buildings or building clusters.The US also benefits from legacy infrastructure,built in the 1970s and 1980s,that is now being modernized and revitalized as decentralization is increasingly pursued.Decentralization also stands to receive a boost in the US,thanks to the recent passing of the Inflation Reduction Act,50 which,among other measures,expands tax incentives available for renewable assets.While the legislation is still being scrutinized and understood,it paves the way for rolling out the ownership of such assets to a broader base of players.As the variety of players becoming involved in energy systems widens,a greater range of sources of capital is also emerging,including private and sovereign capital and with the new tax benefits in the US,there is less need for tax equity partners than there has been previously.The rollout of smart grids is a significant development in the push toward greater decentralization and energy resilience.Smart grids allow for the bidirectional flows of electricity and data using two-way communication and control capabilities to optimize the flow of energy along a network and enable real-time responses to changes in demand(see section,“Why the world must get smart about energy grids”).Governments in markets such as the US are investing in strategic partnerships pursuing grid modernization,including smart grid solutions.51Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisWhy the world must get smart about energy grids For decades,developed regions have needed a national grid to maintain the transmission and distribution of their electricity.This was often an impressive piece of engineering,but not enormously responsive to waves of demand or localized problems.As the energy transition intensifies and the world moves toward a decarbonized,mostly electrified economy,the demand for electricity from renewable resources will grow exponentially,as will the challenges faced by electricity network operators.Renewable energy generation is very different from generation through traditional,fossil-fueled power plants.Its production is dictated by external factors such as weather conditions rather than in response to demand,and frequently in locations distant from the supply.As a result,efficient ways to store and transmit power are required.The rapidly growing number of small even domestic producers of solar and wind power also creates a need for two-way electricity flow at the household level,which itself requires monitoring and recording.With solar panels on every house roof,windmills on every offshore sandbank,and batteries in every electric vehicle(EV),the generation and storage of energy will look very different in the future.While such systems and technologies are a vital part of the move to decarbonize,they make managing the grid a more complex affair,because flows are less predictable.The grid must be intelligent enough to bring all these small generators together and control the flow of power so that it meets demand.The technology to achieve this is largely still in development,but Paul Micallef,EY Global Digital Grid Leader,sees this as the most exciting area in the near future.“Making the grid smart enough to integrate DERs is the real game changer,”he says.The future grid will also have to deal with challenges to its stability.Spikes in production causing network constraints will place unprecedented strain on the grids assets,leading to their earlier-than-expected degradation.In many regions,aging infrastructure is also facing growing strain from events fueled by climate change,as demonstrated by the Texas grid blackout.To meet these challenges,transmission of electricity across the grid must be accompanied by data on generation,storage and demand,so stakeholders can respond to whatever the information is telling them.This is the basic concept of a“smart grid,”which is expected to improve reliability,efficiency and flexibility.Smart meters are the most familiar form of smart grid technology to consumers,allowing them to monitor their own electricity usage at a more granular level while helping suppliers work out where and when demand is likely to peak.According to Micallef,the future grid“will always need some degree of intelligence,but there will be lots of versions.”Integration of renewable power generation is the most obvious aspect of DER management,but storage and supply management will probably be as important in the long run.One resource that is likely to grow exponentially is the available battery capacity of EVs;130 million EVs are expected to be on Europes roads alone by 2035.52 Micallef says:“As EVs scale,unmanaged charging could put a big strain on the system without the appropriate smart technologies and services in place,e.g.,smart charging.But EVs will also have a big role to play in supporting the system via vehicle-to-grid technology.”Perhaps the biggest challenge of smart grids is that they open up a whole new set of problems for utilities in the form of data security,making them responsible for privacy issues and vulnerable to cyber attacks.The assets and software created to support smart metering,network automation,EV charging and other applications will need to meet a number of criteria,including connectivity,interoperability(a common set of standards will be needed to allow all components to work with each other)and cybersecurity.Each of these,plus the development of appropriate energy storage facilities,offers an opportunity for investors to support decarbonization and the transition to a more productive,lower-carbon economy.AnalysisRenewable

focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisHow smart grids workSmart grids are enabled by new technologies that improve two-way communication,control systems and computer processing.These technologies allow operators to analyze the grids stability,route power appropriately and identify issues.For example,using automation to isolate local faults so they dont shut down an entire network can greatly improve the efficiency of the network and reduce the need for costly grid upgrades.Automated switching can also allow two-way power flow,so small generators such as domestic wind or solar power can be integrated easily into the grid.AnalysisIncreasing the resilience of energy infrastructureFurther steps will need to be taken to boost the resiliency of energy infrastructure.This includes initiatives such as“weatherization”weatherproofing to protect infrastructure from the elements,particularly extremely hot or cold weather to ensure that there is enough capacity to accommodate the rollout of EVs.Indeed,the impact of electrification will need to be considered as it advances across numerous decarbonizing sectors and industries.With intermittency issues,the proliferation of renewables will need to be balanced by more sophisticated energy storage or conventional power generation capacity.Given the interconnectedness of these ecosystems,cybersecurity concerns will increase as smart grids become more widespread.Addressing these will be a top priority for those involved in the development of smart grids,and artificial intelligence and blockchain technology could have a role to play here.See more insight on cybersecurity on page 24.“To ensure the grid is more robust and resilient,more distributed generation,load management and fast-ramping resources must be added at strategic locations on the grid,”says West Monroes DeCotis.“This combined with greater visibility and control of the resources in the hands of grid operators with the ability to island sections of the grid to maintain voltage without service interruptions is important.The grid is getting more complex,stronger and more resilient as more resources are added at strategic locations.”Successful decentralization efforts could depend on a combination of regulation,economics with prices of power at a certain level for projects to be viable and,in the case of renewables,favorable conditions.It will also be important to strike the right balance in providing sufficient backup generation to support critical infrastructure.Technological advances will play a significant role for example,as storage becomes cheaper and more sophisticated.Replicating successful efforts in different regions and markets could prove challenging,however,given how much regulatory,economic and weather conditions may vary.Regions with higher levels of regulatory integration,such as the EU,could have an advantage here.In the US,on the other hand,decentralization remains a more complex task because of the disjointed nature of rules,regulatory bodies and approaches across different states.However,between the acceleration of the energy transition and the heightened energy security concerns that have emerged in 2022,the task of ensuring a smart and decentralized grid contributes to flexibility,and resilience has taken on a new urgency.As this urgency increases globally,market participants will see ever-growing incentives to act.Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6018With intermittency issues,the proliferation of renewables will need to

methadologyContactsAnalysisRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6019AnalysisDifferent approaches to smart gridsIn countries without an established national grid,the development of smart grid technology may enable a new form of infrastructure,where the overall grid is made up of microgrids perhaps connecting solar power from individual houses or villages to provide greater stability for all.This connectivity will obviously be most useful in areas with insufficient electrification,but it also has a role to play in developing resilience in more developed areas.Where service is unreliable perhaps in an isolated rural area,or in a highly concentrated urban area where surges in demand can lead to brownouts or blackouts a microgrid that can switch to operating independently of the wider grid will be a clear advantage.In most cases,the development of a smart grid will require significant support from governments,but what that support will look like will depend on each governments long-term strategy.China,for example,has made domestic energy security its focus,53 so its policies have tended to look at improving transmission.This is because its vast quantity of wind and solar energy is produced miles from demand centers.In addition,the flow of power has historically been interrupted by local peaks in demand,causing frequent outages in overwhelmed distribution grids.Chinas push to build its renewable energy capacity has also outstripped its grids ability to bring those new power sources online,so smart grid facilities that make it easier to bring distributed energy generation to consumers are highly desirable.In Canada,the emphasis has been on smart meters,which help consumers understand their own energy use,thereby facilitating improved efficiency.Smart meters were installed in all homes and small businesses in Ontario in 2010,and the province had moved entirely to“time of use”billing by 2012.This has led to tangible reductions in peak demand of electricity consumption by residential consumers.54 Such a move is the first step toward bringing the Internet of Things into the smart grid.A fridge that tells you the milk is going off may be the advertising headline,but a freezer that knows it can turn itself off for an hour or two during peak times is a more useful development in the long term.Developing a smart grid can also support national security.In the Baltic states,it has been an essential element of the project to disconnect from the Russian grid55 and connect to the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity,a broader power grid covering 39 European countries.Threats from Russia to cut the Baltic states off after they implemented EU sanctions against the country because of the war in Ukraine have turned this into a task of extreme urgency.While the work is mostly focused on synchronizing networks and building links between the Baltic states and neighboring countries,the project has also improved the efficiency of networks by,for example,installing battery capacity.the average annual global investment required in electricity networks up to 2030 to implement smart grid technologies and get on track for net zero by 2050,according to the International Energy Agency.Investments in digital assets must increase eightfold,at more than twice the speed of total investments in transmission and distribution.US$800bForeword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsAnalysisRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index

Global Renewables LeaderForeword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsRegional focusRegional focusWith very few fossil fuel resources of its own,Morocco has historically imported most of its energy.As the technology for renewable energy sources has developed,however,so has the North African markets aspiration to generate its own power.The government wants 52%of its energy to come from renewable sources by 2030,and 80%by 2050.56 In 2020,Morocco fell just short of an interim target of 42%,but it is now on track to meet its 2030 target,with ambitious plans for installation of more solar and wind power capacity.With 3,000 hours of sunshine a year,Morocco is well placed for solar power57 currently its largest renewable energy source.However,wind is expected to overtake solar in the coming decade as large projects come online.Topographical features such as the Atlas Mountains and access to the Sahara Desert have allowed Morocco to build flexibility into its power system,with pumped storage hydropower in the mountains and concentrated solar power plants(some with thermal storage)in areas with the most direct sunlight.This is particularly necessary for a system largely reliant on renewables,which cannot be switched on and off in response to demand.Its geopolitical position is another positive factor in Moroccos journey to a low-carbon economy.Not only does it have two existing interconnectors with the Spanish power system,but a third is planned,as well as a fourth with Portugal.Morocco is also active in supporting other African markets with their clean energy transitions,drawing on its own experience.According to Sad Mouline,Director General of the Moroccan Agency for Energy Efficiency:“Morocco has shown that,when you have a strategy and political support,you can reach the lowest renewable prices in the world,less than three US cents per kilowatt-hour in the wind sector.”Speaking to the Middle East Policy Council,he continued:“Morocco has shown the whole continent how to economically implement renewable energy policies,and we support our partners throughout the continent today in this pursuit.”58As well as targeting renewable energy to produce electricity,Morocco is looking at how to decarbonize other sectors,including transport,which will require new fuels such as green hydrogen,and agriculture,which needs a combination of solar power,to substitute for diesel generators,and innovative fertilizers.It hopes this will help spark a“green revolution”for Africa.It is envisaged that all this development of renewable energy projects will be supported by foreign direct investment,through the institutional framework of the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy(Masen).This is a“one-stop shop”for private project developers,bringing together permit processes,land acquisition and financing,and potentially providing a state guarantee for the investment.MASEN tenders attract private developers and investors in renewable energy projects through a model of public debt,state guarantees and concessional loans.New financing models and the diversification of financing sources(e.g.,green bonds)are critical to boosting private investment and commercial bank loans.There is no doubt,however,that Morocco has the natural resources,regulatory support and government commitment to lead Africas green revolution.Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6021Topographical features such as the Atlas Mountains and access to the Sahara Desert

society.”61 The biggest challenge is getting the power from where it is produced,mostly in the north and the south of Chile,to the metropolitan center around Santiago.As Chile is 4,300 miles long but only an average of 175 miles wide this is a considerable obstacle.A major interconnector project linked the north and center in 2017,but the National Electric Coordinator estimates another US$3.2b needs to be spent on transmission projects by 2025.Chile is taking on a considerable and multifaceted challenge,including phasing out its 28 coal-fired plants by 2040.Added to this,regulation of stand-alone storage systems to make up for the transmission deficit has taken longer than expected to be approved.Furthermore,price allocation mechanisms will have to be resolved if the market is to resume investing.The price fluctuations have been caused by,among other things,the persistent drought,which has required diesel-based thermal power plants to continue to operate,attracting higher costs to the system.If Chile is to meet its ambitious targets,integrated planning will be essential,as will a clear tariff scheme and a long-term commitment by the government to the energy transition,to convince investors there is no risk of the governments support suddenly dissipating.In line with this,the Chilean Senate recently approved the Storage Law,which it is hoped will clear up regulatory doubts about this type of technology.Another market heavily reliant on fossil fuel imports,but blessed with enormous potential for renewable power generation,is Chile.The Atacama Desert,in the north,is one of the best solar resources in the world,with a theoretical potential of 1,800GW,while southern coasts and mountains have exceptional wind resources.59With this in mind,Chile aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.By the end of 2020,it was generating more than half its electricity from renewable sources,well on track for its interim target of 70%by 2030 and impressively beyond its original 2020 target of 20%.A year later,that proportion had risen to 54.1%,an acceleration in an already speedy growth rate.60This progress has been helped by the development of an innovative auction process for electricity providers,allowing them to bid for contracts in four supply blocks:whole-year 24/7;quarterly;daylight;and nighttime.This is of particular value to solar producers,which no longer have to buy in power to cover the nighttime supply for which they were previously contracted.A note of realism is struck by the President of the Chilean Association for Renewable Energies,ACERA AG,Jos Ignacio Escobar,in a recent newsletter.“They say that if the road is difficult,it is because you are going in the right direction.And difficult it has been,”he said.“But time has proved us right,and today,renewable energy and storage are the only technologies capable of responding to the innumerable energy challenges that the world faces.Sustainable development,balancing the economic,the social and the environmental,is the only viable form of coexistence between Normalized rankingRECAIranking517ChileChile also views green hydrogen as a key part of its plan for carbon neutrality.It wants to become the top exporter of green hydrogen by 2050.The path toward this objective is set out in the National Green Hydrogen Strategy,but the mechanisms to implement such a strategy remain unclear.Deploying projects already in the pipeline is essential if Chile is to compete with other countries that also aspire to be the worlds prominent supplier of green hydrogen.Nevertheless,such ambition is good news for the world.Decarbonizing Chiles mining industry including lithium(used in batteries and energy storage)and copper(used in EVs,among other things)would be a big step toward a global transition to a low-carbon economy,62 and is already under way.Today,renewable energy and storage are the only technologies capable of responding to the

the value of government commitment to renewables.The government strongly believes that a significant acceleration in the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources this decade is the best way to achieve stable and lower electricity prices and,consequently,a more competitive industry.With a high level of production and consumption of electricity from renewable energy sources,Portugal aims to reduce its dependence on fossil fuel imports.63 While hydro and wind power have been the focus for the past decade,2019 marked the tipping point for Portugal and solar PV.After several years of underinvestment in this technology,Portugals 2019,2020 and 2021 solar auctions,which allocated around 2.3GW of new solar power capacity,changed the paradigm in the market completely.The tenders were a resounding success,with Portugal setting world records for the lowest solar tariff price.In a striking display of innovation in 2020,eight of the 12 blocks put up for auction were awarded in the storage option.This meant Portugal was one of the first markets to develop large-scale hybrid projects with renewable generation plus storage.In a further innovation,the 2021 auction allocated 263MW of floating PV at seven dams across Portugal.Portugal is currently on track for 80%of its electricity production to come from renewables by 2030,according to the Portuguese Energy Services Regulatory Authority,including solar projects in the pipeline representing about 12GW.The energy transition is not just about electrification.To accelerate decarbonization of the economy,Portugal also aims to invest in renewable gases,such as green hydrogen.The war in Ukraine and subsequent energy shortages have prompted some markets to look at increasing energy consumption from alternative fossil fuel sources.Portugal has instead simplified procedures and reduced licensing deadlines for renewable energies and hydrogen,to continue decarbonizing its economy

Attractiveness Index 6024Why the renewables sector must meet cybersecurity challenges head-on The rise of distributed energy networks and smart grids is leading to more complex cybersecurity challenges as more devices are integrated into energy systems.InsightCybersecurity is increasingly seen as a top priority for energy infrastructure,especially in the wake of significant events such as the cyber attack on the US Colonial Pipeline in 202164 and on Greeces largest natural gas distributor,DESFA,in August 2022.65 This focus on cybersecurity is being amplified by current trends,including decentralization and the implementation of smart grid technologies.Smart grids allow for the bidirectional flow of power and information,and use two-way communication and control capabilities to respond to changes in demand in real time.However,this increased connectivity of technologies leaves smart grids vulnerable to cyber attacks,and this will need to be addressed as they are rolled out further.Among the critical infrastructure that could be vulnerable are power plants,electricity grids,pipelines,communication networks and cloud systems.Newer technology adds to the challenge,given its greater connectivity to the Internet of Things(IoT)and the Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT).“The cybersecurity issue is not really new,I think its just been overlooked in the past,”says Jalal Bouhdada,DNVs Global Cyber Security Lead and founder and CEO of Applied Risk,a specialist industrial cybersecurity firm acquired by DNV last year.He points to a number of developments that have contributed to the growing seriousness and complexity of cybersecurity threats,including geopolitical tensions,a shortage of relevant skills,and the convergence of information technology(IT)and operational technology(OT).“The other part is the threat actors,”Bouhdada continues.“They are very active,very organized and very selective in terms of their target,and it depends on who you are dealing with.”Steps are already being taken to address cybersecurity challenges on a number of fronts,including regulation.Several markets are establishing,revising or enhancing their regulations relating to cybersecurity,with a focus on critical national infrastructure and OT environments.Significant challenges are presented by the existence of legacy technology,however.A lot of legacy OT systems are part of billion-dollar infrastructure investments and cannot be upgraded,or even changed,without another large 20-to 40-year investment.At the same time,the rise of smart grids and distributed energy networks is increasing the complexity of cybersecurity requirements,given the growing number of devices being integrated into energy systems.In many cases,cybersecurity breaches can go undetected for some time,or even indefinitely.Collaboration between public and private sector is very important.I think the relationship between companies and regulators does not always make this easy.“Jalal BouhdadaGlobal Cyber Security Lead,DNV;and founder and CEO of Applied RiskIn brief The rise of smart grids and distributed energy networks is presenting increasingly complex cybersecurity challenges,while legacy technology continues to represent a different kind of obstacle.Several markets are developing or enhancing their regulatory environments for cybersecurity in an effort to protect critical energy assets.Organizations can take steps to bolster cybersecurity,but collaboration is required,internally and externally;external collaboration,in particular,presents additional challenges.Clinton M.Firth EY Global Cybersecurity Lead,Energy Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsInsightRaising the focus on cybersecurityThe ransomware attack on the Colonial Pipeline,the largest fuel pipeline in the US,with a capacity of around 2.5 million barrels of refined products per day,illustrated just how serious a cyber attack on a major piece of energy infrastructure can be.This incident was pivotal because of the severity of the resulting outage and the strength of the US governments response.Following the attack,the Colonial Pipeline Company shut down the pipeline and its IT systems for six days,leading to supply disruptions and spiking gasoline prices,which hit US$3 per gallon for the first time in nearly seven years.The pipeline carries nearly half the fuel consumed on the US East Coast and,though it was only offline for a few days,the outage prompted the US government to take action,issuing new regulations to critical pipeline companies.66 The directives,the first of their kind for the US,have subsequently been updated after the government assessed how they were working in practice.67Other markets are also introducing or upgrading regulations relating to cybersecurity,and the US response to the Colonial Pipeline attack will have been watched closely by governments looking at how best to protect their critical energy infrastructure.Even before the US attack,efforts to improve performance on energy cybersecurity through regulation were under way elsewhere in the world.However,the Colonial Pipeline incident and others including the attack on DESFA in Greece,which caused a system outage and data exposure,and the distributed denial-of-service attack on Lithuanian state-owned energy provider Ignitis Group in July 202268 have heightened concerns globally about the impact of cybercrime.A number of markets,including Australia and China,are seeking to update their cybersecurity regulations,while,in September 2022,the European Commission published a proposal for a European Cyber Resilience Act.If implemented,this regulation would require any manufacturer of a“product with digital elements”to meet minimum cybersecurity requirements if it wants to place that product on the EU market.The proposal applies to software as well as hardware.Also in September,a joint alert put out by government cybersecurity units in the US,the UK,Australia and Canada warned about advanced persistent threat actors that the partners believe to be affiliated with the Iranian governments Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.69 The alert warned critical infrastructure companies in particular to step up their cybersecurity measures in the face of the threat posed.Addressing the challenge of aging technologyGovernments and companies seeking to improve their cybersecurity performance are faced with a two-fold challenge:aging legacy technology that would require billions of dollars to upgrade,and new technology that is increasingly connected via the IoT and IIoT.A lot of the technology used in new distributed energy systems for example,smart meters and solar controllers is identical or similar in configuration and design.While this makes it easier to standardize components and bring down their costs,it can also lead to them being more exposed.Legacy technology cannot be easily upgraded or replaced without broader,more extensive and costly investment.There are also risks related to disrupting systems that are running around the clock if attempts are made to upgrade them.As a short-term fix,extra defenses and monitoring can be added.However,until companies are ready to make the significant investments required to completely overhaul assets with legacy technology components,little can be done to bring a meaningful solution to the problem of aging infrastructure.However,with the increasing focus on cybersecurity,companies may come under new pressure to invest more than previously planned in overhauling and upgrading legacy infrastructure.InsightRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6025the length of time the

focusInsightData and methadologyContactsInsightLearning lessons from around the globeRegions seeking to bolster their cybersecurity defenses can learn lessons from each other.South Korea,for example,has more than 30 years experience in developing and implementing cyber resilience for its critical infrastructure.It is one of the worlds most digitally connected markets,making it vulnerable to cyber attacks.For geopolitical reasons,South Korea has been frequently targeted by cyber attacks suspected of originating in North Korea.In response to these threats,it has developed more comprehensive cybersecurity policies aimed at supporting the private and public sectors to prepare for,respond to and recover from cyber threats.70 It has increased funding available for cybersecurity,invested in more personnel,enacted regulations to bolster the cybersecurity industrys competitiveness,and sought international cooperation.71The US has also made significant strides,including over the past year when,among other changes,the government established the Office of the National Cyber Director.72 This office will coordinate the overall federal cyber strategy,including broadening engagement and information sharing between the private sector and various federal agencies.The cyber incident disclosure requirements introduced after the Colonial Pipeline attack also represent a significant change in US policy,and the platform used for reporting such incidents continues to evolve.Cybersecurity and smart grid implementationThe cybersecurity challenges presented by new technology and smart grids are different.Moving a city from traditional meters to smart meters increases the overall cyber exposure;the broader proliferation of IoT devices increases the potential attack surface area.Often,such devices do not have a full operating system and are poorly configured at times,with hard-coded passwords.They are generally cheap,and therefore prone to being forgotten,so they remain in their environment and connected to the IoT,but not managed.They also tend to be difficult to monitor because of the challenges of log generation.Much of the technology used in new distributed energy systems for example,smart meters and solar controllers is identical or similar in configuration and design.While this makes it easier to standardize components and bring down their costs,it can also lead to them being more exposed in particular,to accelerated lateral movement or attack vectors by threat actors.For example,a recent test of smart meters that had the same hard-coded password resulted in one successful attack,which then led to tens of thousands of devices being taken over within seconds.Given their sheer number,it is difficult to manage IIoT devices,and it may not be possible to control them in the case of home solar or battery technology,for instance.The situation stands to be further complicated over time by the proliferation of EVs,especially as the bulk of charging will happen at the home,creating additional cybersecurity concerns.There are also risks associated with threat actors using the supply chain to get to their primary target,while the constant evolution of software means new configurations could introduce fresh vulnerabilities to energy systems.InsightRenewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6026In addition,the US and South Korea have worked to strengthen their bilateral cybersecurity cooperation,and these efforts could serve as a model for other markets to follow.Organizations should equip themselves with new cybersecurity skills and engage on the topic at a senior level with boards,for example.Increasing sector-wide collaboration on cybersecurity is another important step they can take.Such steps are achievable,according to DNVs Bouhdada,but require commitment from senior management and a willingness to collaborate within and beyond an organization.“Collaboration between public and private sector is very important,”he says.“I think the relationship between companies and regulators does not always make this easy.”Given the vast and rapidly changing cybersecurity landscape in which threat actors are increasingly more sophisticated greater cooperation between countries could be essential to more effective cybersecurity strategies.The opportunities for new investment are both immense and critical.Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsInsightTechnology-specific scoresRankMarketPrevious

methadologyRECAI methodology The index rankings reflect our assessment of the factors driving market attractiveness in a world where renewable energy has gone beyond decarbonization and reliance on subsidies.We have defined the questions being asked,based on what we see as global market trends affecting investment and deployment priorities,and the challenges and success factors impacting EY clients:Is there a long-term need for additional or replacement energy supply?If so,is there a strong case for energy from renewable resources in particular?Is policy hindering or helping the ability to exploit renewables opportunities?Are essential components in place to ensure project delivery,such as long-term contracts,grid infrastructure(including storage)and availability of finance?What does the strength of natural resource,track record and project pipeline reveal about the outlook for particular renewable technologies?Even if all other elements are in place,does the macro stability and investment climate enable or impede the ease of doing business?These index pillars therefore put emphasis on fundamentals such as energy imperative,policy stability,project delivery(including capital availability)and diversity of natural resource factors that will increasingly become key market differentiators as markets move toward grid parity,and“artificial”motivations,such as government targets or the ring-fencing of technologies,become less critical.Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6029Data and methodologyDetermining the rankingsEach parameter within the five pillars comprises a series of data sets that are converted into a score,from one to five,and weighted to generate parameter scores.These are weighted again to produce pillar scores,then an overall RECAI score and ranking.Weightings are based on the EY assessment of the relative importance of each data set,parameter and pillar in driving investment and deployment decisions.Each technology is also allocated a weighting based on its share of historical and projected investment levels.Separate from the main index,EY technology-specific indices rankings reflect a weighted average score across the technology-specific parameters and a combined score covering our other macro and energy market parameters.This is because some markets may be highly attractive for specific technologies but face other major barriers to entry.Data sets are based on publicly available or purchased data,EY analysis or adjustments to third-party data.We are unable to publicly disclose the underlying data sets or weightings used to produce the indices.If you would like to discuss how EY RECAI analysis could help your business decisions or transactions,please contact the RECAI Advisor Lavaanya Rekhi.Foreword

Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6030Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey developmentsAnalysisRegional focusInsightData and methadologyContactsData and methadology06Data and methodologyPPA Index methodologyBy analyzing the same 100 markets as in the full RECAI database,the goal is to create a new ranking that focuses on the attractiveness of renewable power procurement via offsite corporate PPAs rather than the attractiveness of renewable project investment.The final score for the top 30 markets is calculated from a weighted combination of 12 key parameters,which act as a proxy for corporate PPA potential.The PPA Index focuses on four pillars(three PPA-specific pillars together with a RECAI score pillar):PPA market maturity this focuses on activities carried out within each market in the past decade.It concentrates on market maturity,looking at past PPA deal frequency and volume,as well as a quantitative analysis of more recent PPA deal growth.PPA future market this forward-looking score assesses the forecast activity of each market.Forecast power capacity is a key driver of the magnitude of a market,so this has a significant weighting on the score as well as the wholesale power price relative to the levelized cost of energy(LCOE)or PPA price in each location.Forecast capacity installations and a weighted project pipeline score from the RECAI are used.The index has focused on wind and solar PPAs(together weighted at 93%)as these represent the vast majority of offsite corporate PPAs.PPA policy score this focuses on the ease of operation in a given market.If a market is to have potential for corporate PPA growth,supporting government policy must be in place for efficient and large-scale expansion.This is considered in the core RECAI,but is also examined here,with a more nuanced focus on PPA supportive policy.RECAI score the overall score yielded by the RECAI is also factored in as one of the fundamental pillars,because this provides a strong overview of the existing and potential strength of a markets renewable energy landscape.The PPA Index uses a multiplicative formula to prioritize well-rounded markets with strengths in all aspects of corporate PPA development and integration.For example,this will mean that markets with zero PPA deals to date will score zero overall and will not yet be included.However,with strong weighting on forward-looking parameters,even markets with just a few deals to date could score highly if significant growth is expected in the corporate PPA market within the next five years the horizon of the RECAI.The PPA Index score(which can be very large)has been normalized into a score from 0 to 100,to create a more manageable reference value.The leading market will score 100 but this does not mean that the market is perfect for corporate PPAs.It means that,relatively speaking,it is the most attractive market for corporate PPAs across the coming five years.Data sets are based on publicly available or purchased data,EY analysis or adjustments to third-party data.We are unable to publicly disclose the exact data sets or weightings used to produce the indices.For more information on the services that EY teams provide to corporates around renewable energy strategies and PPAs,please refer to our website:and methodology31PPA market maturity(Sources:Pexapark,DLA Piper and EY

methodologyWith the largest global markets tending to top the RECAI,there are many smaller markets where renewable energy is growing rapidly and becoming highly attractive.By dividing a markets RECAI score by logarithm of GDP to produce a“normalized score,”the new index identifies those smaller renewable energy markets that perform the best on the core RECAI pillars of energy mix,government support,project delivery and natural resource.Removing a markets economic size showcases those that are efficient in terms of their size and the most attractive for investors.The normalized index also highlights larger markets that score well in the RECAI but could be doing more to support the green transition.Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index 6032Foreword RECAI 60PPA IndexKey

over time in important ways.Examining these shifts in scale,direction,demography and frequency can help us understand how migration is evolving,and can inform effective policies,programmes and operational responses on the ground.The current United Nations global estimate is that there were around 281 million international migrants in the world in 2020,which equates to 3.6 per cent of the global population.This is a small minority of the worlds population,meaning that staying within ones country of birth remains,overwhelmingly,the norm.The great majority of people do not migrate across borders;much larger numbers migrate within countries,although we have seen this slow over the past two years as COVID-19 related immobility has gripped communities everywhere.The COVID-19 pandemic has also highlighted the interconnections between migration and mobility,with COVID-19 travel restrictions resulting in hundreds of millions of people being unable to travel for months on end,and leaving many thousands of migrants stranded and in need of assistance.Migration is a complex issue.As such,it is one that can be exacerbated by misinformation and politicization to alarming degrees.The central aim of the flagship World Migration Report is to set out in clear and accurate terms the changes occurring in migration and mobility globally so that readers can better situate their own work.As the United Nations migration agency,IOM has an obligation to demystify the complexity and diversity of human mobility.The report also acknowledges IOMs continuing obligation to uphold fundamental rights and its mission to support those migrants who are most in need.This is particularly relevant in the areas in which IOM works to provide humanitarian assistance to people who have been displaced,including by weather events,conflict and persecution,or to those who have become stranded during crises,such as COVID-19.Likewise,IOM remains committed to supporting Member States as they draw upon various forms of data,research and analysis during policy formulation and review processes.Indeed,this is reflected in IOMs Constitution where the need for migration research is highlighted as an integral part of the Organizations functions.The World Migration Report is a flagship component of this important area of work.That said,we also know that the key features of migration vary across different locations,and that specific audiences(such as policy officials,practitioners,media,researchers,teachers and students)have varying information and analytical needs when using this report to inform their work.So,in addition to the presentation of key global and regional migration data and trends as well as salient thematic issues,this World Migration Report is supplemented by a range of digital tools ensuring that the report does not remain on the“virtual shelf”.I am proud to report that the World Migration Report editorial team won recognition in two categories of the International Annual Report Design Awards 2021,in both the online and pdf categories,for the 2020 edition of the report.Spurred on by this success,IOM has expanded the array of report materials for a digital age.The new online interactive platform allows users to explore and interact with key data in a highly visual and engaging way.This is supplemented by the online educators toolkit to support teachers around the world as they seek to provide balanced,accurate and interesting learning materials on the fundamentals of migration and migrants for teenagers and young adults.xiiiWORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022The rise and rise of disinformation about migration has meant that the World Migration Report has become a key source for fact-checkers around the world,helping to refute false news on migration in a wide variety of places.To assist fact-checkers,we have developed a simple toolkit to help bust key myths on migration.We are also working with partners on the development of a digital policy officials toolkit to assist them in utilizing its contents in a wide range of policy-related settings.We are cognizant that many,including Member States officials,need outputs and materials in their own official language(s).Language translation is a meaningful,practical and cost-effective way of supporting development and technical capacity-building for those working in migration around the world.We are pleased that donors agree:the 2020 edition of the World Migration Report was available for the first time in all six United Nations languages(Arabic,Chinese,English,French,Russian and Spanish),with key chapters also translated into German,Portuguese,Swahili and Turkish.Our aim,with the support of donors from all sectors,is to increase our linguistic reach even further for this current edition.Extending the utility and reach of our flagship report is a particularly gratifying aspect of the evolution of the Organizations role and contribution to migration discourse globally.On this,our 70th anniversary,it is important to reflect upon the ongoing need for IOMs strong operational capabilities to support humanitarian response and leverage migration programmatic expertise.However,what some readers may not realize is that IOM has been one of the longest standing supporters and producers of migration research and analysis,establishing the first scientific journal on international migration in 1961,and commencing the World Migration Report more than two decades ago.In this era of heightened interest in and activity towards migration and migrants,we hope this 2022 edition of the World Migration Report and its related tools become key resources for you.We hope they help you to navigate this high-profile and dynamic topic during periods of uncertainty,and that the report prompts reflection during quieter moments.But most importantly,we hope that you learn something new from the report that can inform your own work,be it in studies,research and analysis,policymaking,communication or migration practice.Antnio VitorinoDirector GeneralMARIE MCAULIFFEANNA TRIANDAFYLLIDOU1WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 20221REPORT OVERVIEW:TECHNOLOGICAL,GEOPOLITICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSFORMATIONS SHAPING OUR MIGRATION AND MOBILITY FUTURES1 IntroductionThe last two years,since the release of the World Migration Report 2020 on 28 November 2019 around three weeks before COVID-19 was initially detected have been unlike anything we could have imagined.It has not been business as usual.We therefore cannot make the standard,but nevertheless truthful observations about the tremendous benefits that migration brings to the world,about best practices for safe and well-managed migration,and about how crises combined with misinformation can risk diverting our attention and lead to migration being used as a political weapon.2 While these observations remain valid,the most severe pandemic in over a century has laid bare some other“home truths”.Innovation,ingenuity,skill,compassion,resilience and hope have been witnessed time and again in responding to this global health crisis.Yet there is a sense that some of the core values underpinning a well-functioning system of global governance3 were at times reduced to rhetoric or fodder for political“announceables”.Values such as equality,sustainability,cooperation,collaboration,tolerance and inclusion were,at times,set aside by political and industry leaders under pressure to respond to the pandemic in a hyper-competitive international arena.Unsurprisingly,some of those reflecting on COVID-19 impacts have called for the return to a holistic understanding of the world and the place that humans occupy in it.4It is within this context that this World Migration Report focuses on developments in migration over the last two-year period,with an emphasis on providing analysis that takes into account historical and contemporary factors historical in recognition that migration and displacement occur within broader long-term social,security,political and economic contexts;contemporary in recognition that we are still in many ways grappling with a significant global upheaval caused by a severe pandemic that has tested even the most resilient systems,countries,communities and people.While acknowledging that we will continue to experience the systemic effects of COVID-19 for many years to come,this World Migration Report 2022 offers an initial exploration of current data and other evidence to answer the key question,“How has COVID-19 altered migration and mobility for people around the world?”Yet it also answers many other questions beyond a COVID-19 focus,including on important topics such as the links between peace and migration,on disinformation on migration,on countering human trafficking in migration pathways and on climate change impacts.1 Marie McAuliffe,Head,Migration Research and Publications Division,IOM;Anna Triandafyllidou,Canada Excellence Research Chair in Migration and Integration,Ryerson University.2 See Chapter 1 of the World Migration Report 2020 for discussion of these issues.3 See,for example,UN,2015.4 Gardini,2020.2Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresWhat has happened in migration?A great deal has happened in migration in the last two years since the release of the last World Migration Report in late 2019.The COVID-19 global pandemic arrived at a time of heightened uncertainty brought about by fundamental changes in technology,adding tremendous complexity and anxiety to a world that was already experiencing significant transformations.5COVID-19 has radically altered mobility around the world,and while there were initial expectations and hope that the pandemic would be limited to 2020,virus strains,waves of infection and vaccination programming issues have seen the pandemic continue through 2021.COVID-19 has become a truly seismic global event,testing the resilience of countries,communities,systems and sectors.By the end of the first year of the pandemic,116.2million cases of COVID-19 had been recorded globally,while 2.58million people had died.6 In mobility terms,108,000 international COVID-19-related travel restrictions had been imposed globally.7 Air passenger numbers dropped by 60 per cent in 2020(1.8billion)compared with 2019(4.5billion),evidence of the massive decline in mobility globally.8 Chapter 5 of this report provides analysis of COVID-19 impacts on migration,mobility and migrants during the first year of the pandemic.The last two years also saw major migration and displacement events;events that have caused great hardship and trauma,as well as loss of life.Foremost have been the displacements ofmillions of people due to conflict(such as within and from the Syrian Arab Republic,Yemen,the Central African Republic,the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan),or severe economic and political instability(such as that faced bymillions of Venezuelans and Afghans).There have also been large-scale displacements triggered by climate-and weather-related disasters in many parts of the world in 2020 and 2021,including in China,the Philippines,Bangladesh,India,the United States of America and Haiti.9We have also seen the scale of international migration increase,although at a reduced rate due to COVID-19.The number of international migrants was estimated to be almost 281million globally in 2020,with nearly two thirds being labour migrants.10 This figure remains a very small percentage of the worlds population(at 3.6%),meaning that the vast majority of people globally(96.4%)were estimated to be residing in the country in which they were born.However,the estimated number and proportion of international migrants for 2020 was lower,by around 2million,than they otherwise would have been,due to COVID-19.11 It is likely that the longer international mobility restrictions remain in place in many parts of the world,the weaker the growth will be in the number of international migrants in future years.Long-term data on international migration have taught us that migration is not uniform across the world,but is shaped by economic,geographic,demographic and other factors,resulting in distinct migration patterns,such as migration“corridors”being developed over many years(see Chapter 2 of this report for details).The largest corridors tend to be from developing countries to larger economies,such as those of the United States,the United Arab Emirates,Saudi Arabia and Germany;large corridors can also reflect protracted conflict and related displacement,such as from the Syrian Arab Republic to Turkey(the second largest corridor in the world).While many long-term corridors are likely to continue to feature in the immediate future,COVID-19 has shed light on the intensification of digitalization and the potential for greater automation of work around the world that is likely to affect key labour migration corridors(see discussion below).5 See Chapter 1 of

environmental transformations shaping migration and mobilityThe unprecedented pace of change during recent years in geopolitical,environmental and technological spheres has led some analysts and commentators to coin or use phrases such as the“age of accelerations”,12 the“fourth industrial revolution”13 and the“age of change”.14 More recently,COVID-19 has amplified the sense of uncertainty brought about during momentous change,while also physically grounding much of the world for extended periods of time.The pandemic has required resilience,while also offering the opportunity to reflect on our collective futures.Similar to other international phenomena,migration has historically been affected by seismic geopolitical events,such as the two world wars,the Cold War,and large terrorist attacks(such as 9/11),which can mark“turning points”in migration governance,as well as in broader discourse and sentiment.15 The COVID-19 pandemic is the latest seismic geopolitical event,stemming from a global health emergency and,while by no means over,it has already had profound impacts on migration and mobility globally.Existing knowledge,evidence and analyses allow us to place new information on COVID-19 within a frame of reference as new data come to light.Rather than looking only at the here and now,we need to be understanding change in terms of longer-term migration patterns and processes.The significance and implications of COVID-19 can only be sufficiently understood and articulated when contextualized and rooted in current knowledge of migration.16It is also important to place migration and mobility within broader systemic change processes that act to determine,shape and impede responses by governments(at different levels)and non-State actors(e.g.civil society,industry,citizens).Key technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations are particularly relevant and help us to understand better the strategic issues shaping the context in which people migrate,States formulate and implement policy,and a wide range of State and non-State actors collaborate and cooperate on migration and mobility research,policy and practice.Technological transformationsTechnological advances since 2005 resulting in the so-called“fourth industrial revolution”are profoundly changing how social,political and economic systems operate globally.17 We have been witnessing the rising power of“big tech”,the increasing production capability for self-publishing of misinformation and disinformation,the race by businesses to“digitalize or perish”,the massive increase in data being produced(mainly through user-generated interactions)resulting in increasing“datafication”of human interactions,and the rapid development and roll-out of artificial intelligence(AI)capabilities within business and governments sectors.18 Digital technology is becoming increasingly crucial throughout migration.People are able to gather information and advice in real time during migration journeys,an issue that has raised interest and,at times,concern.The use of apps to share information and connect geographically dispersed groups has raised valid questions concerning the extent 12 Friedman,2016.13 Schwab,2016.14 Mauldin,2018.15 Faist,2004;McAuliffe and Goossens,2018;Newland et al.,2019.16 McAuliffe et al.,2020.17 Friedman,2016;Schwab,2016;Triandafyllidou,2018.18 Desjardins,2019;Hirsh-Pasek et al.,2018;McAuliffe,2021;Skog et al.,2018;Zuboff,2019.6Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresto which digital technology has been used to support irregular migration,as well as to enable migrants to avoid abusive and exploitative migrant smugglers and human traffickers.19 Migrants have also developed applications to support better integration in receiving countries,while maintaining social links and financial support to their families and societies back home,including through the increasing prevalence of“mobile money”apps.20 More recently,we have seen migrants develop online chatbots using machine-learning technologies to provide psychological support,as well as to help navigate complex migration policy and visa processing requirements,although digital capture in various migration systems of an increasing amount of personal information is raising concerns about privacy and other human rights issues(see Chapter 11 of this report).Other connections between migration and technology are also emerging in migration debates.As artificial intelligence technologies are progressively taken up in key sectors,their broader consequences for migrant worker demand and domestic labour markets are areas of intense focus for policymakers and businesses in both origin and receiving countries.21 Recent discussions have also turned to blockchain technology and its consequences for migration,especially for international remittances,but also for digital identities and global mobility.22 Social media technology is also increasingly impacting the politics of migration,with a surge of far-right activism on social media platforms seeking to influence public debates and ultimately political decisions(see Chapter 8 of this report).Profound technological change was deepening before COVID-19,but has significantly intensified during the pandemic,meaning that deep digitalization of an already digitalizing world will be one of the most significant long-term effects of COVID-19.Shaping migration and mobility systems to reduce the impacts of inequality in a world that is suffering multiple“digital divides”23 will be particularly important in ensuring implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs)and other multilateral agreements.Geopolitical transformationsIncreased competition between States is resulting in heightened geopolitical tension and risking the erosion of multilateral cooperation.Economic,political and military power has radically shifted in the last two decades,with power now more evenly distributed in the international system.24 As a result,there is rising geopolitical competition,especially among global powers,often played out via proxies.The environment of intensifying competition between key States and involving a larger number of States is undermining international cooperation through multilateral mechanisms,such as those of the United Nations.25 We are living in a period in which the core values underpinning global governance are being challenged.The values of equity,accountability,impartiality,fairness,justice and probity are being actively undermined,as some political leaders disregard common interest in preference for personal interest even if it corrodes laws,processes and institutions that have,overall,sought to advance whole nations and peoples,without excluding or expelling some because of their inherent characteristics or beliefs.26 Ongoing and systematic corrosion,as we have witnessed throughout history,can extend to attacks on human rights and ultimately on groups of people within societies.2719 McAuliffe,2016;Sanchez,2018.20 Kitimbo,2021.21 Hertog,2019;McAuliffe,2018.22 Latonero et al.,2019;Juskalian,2018.23“Digital divides”refers to unequal access of digital technology along economic,geographic,demographic and gender lines.See ITU,2020.24 Menon,2015.25 Natalegawa,2020.26 Fotaki,2014.27 Rawnsley,2018.7WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022In rebalancing the geopolitical debate and arguing for the profound benefits of the multilateral system,many States and the United Nations have actively progressed a number of key initiatives to deliver improved conditions for communities globally,most especially for those most in need.Despite the challenges of a geopolitically charged competition,some progress has been made towards achieving the SDGs,28 as well as on the specific issues of migration and displacement via the two Global Compacts for migration and on refugees.29 On the eve of the 2022 International Migration Review Forum the primary intergovernmental platform on the implementation of the Global Compact for Migration,including as it relates to the SDGs preparations are well under way,with a series of regional review processes having already been finalized across 2020 and 2021.30 A rallying cry has also been made recently by the United Nations Secretary-General in his 2021 report Our Common Agenda on bolstering support for multilateralism in an increasingly complex,competitive and uncertain world.31 Our Common Agenda outlines the United Nations actions that are designed to strengthen and accelerate multilateral agreements(including the SDGs)and make a tangible,positive difference in peoples lives around the world.Environmental transformationsThe intensification of ecologically negative human activity is resulting in overconsumption and overproduction linked to unsustainable economic growth,resource depletion and biodiversity collapse,as well as ongoing climate change.Broadly grouped under the heading of“human supremacy”,there is growing recognition of the extremely negative consequences of human activities that are not preserving the planets ecological systems.In several key areas,analysts report that the world is at or nearing“breaking point”,including on climate change,biodiversity collapse and mass extinction of thousands of species,32 while pollution is at record levels,altering ecosystems globally.33 COVID-19 has dampened human activity in key spheres(e.g.transportation/travel,construction,hospitality)enabling a mini environmental recovery,34 as well as a space to reflect on the ability of humans to achieve extraordinary things during times of crisis.However,there is a strong sense that this is merely a pause and that human activity will rebound once the pandemic is over,wiping out the pandemic-related benefits.35 The implications for migration and displacement are significant,as people increasingly turn to internal and international migration as a means of adaptation to environmental impacts(see Chapter 9 of the World Migration Report 2020),or face displacement from their homes and communities due to slow-onset impacts of climate change(see Chapter 9 of this report)or experience displacement as a result of acute disaster events(see Chapters 2 and 3 of this report).28 UN,2021a.This 2021 progress report documents SDG progress,but also highlights how COVID-19 has resulted in major setbacks.29 Global Compact for Safe,Orderly and Regular Migration;Global Compact on Refugees.30 UNNM,2021.31 UN,2021b.32 UNEP,2020a.33 UNEP,2020b.34 Arora et al.,2020.35 Freire-Gonzlez and Vivanco,2020.8Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresThrough the years:IOM marks its 70th anniversaryThe year 2021 marks the 70th anniversary of IOM,providing the opportunity to reflect on the Organization and its work,especially since 2016 when it entered into the United Nations system as a related agency.IOM is the leading intergovernmental organization promoting(since 1951)humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all,with 174 Member States and a presence in over 100 countries.Initially established as the Provisional Intergovernmental Committee for the Movement of Migrants from Europe(PICMME)in 1951,its role was carved out of the chaos and displacement of Western Europe following the Second World War(see text box below on IOMs early years).IOM in its early yearsMandated to help European governments to identify resettlement countries for the estimated 11million people uprooted by the Second World War,IOM(or PICMME,as it was known then)arranged transport for nearly amillion migrants during the 1950s.A succession of name changes from PICMME to the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration(ICEM)in 1952,to the Intergovernmental Committee for Migration(ICM)in 1980 to the International Organization for Migration(IOM)in 1989,reflects the Organizations transition over the course of half a century from logistics agency to migration agency.While IOMs history tracks the human-induced and natural disasters of the past half century Hungary 1956,Czechoslovakia 1968,Chile 1973,the Vietnamese boat people 1975,Kuwait 1990 and the Asian tsunami and Pakistan earthquake of 2004/2005 its credo that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society has steadily gained international acceptance.From its roots as an operational logistics agency,it has broadened its scope to become the leading international agency working with governments and civil society to advance the understanding of migration issues,encourage social and economic development through migration,and uphold the human dignity and well-being of migrants.Source:IOM,2021b.Over time,IOMs role and responsibilities have expanded considerably in line with the growing salience of migration as a key issue in governance at the international,regional,national and subnational levels.36 What started as a focus on logistics in support of resettling people displaced by conflict has expanded to cover a wide range issues,as outlined in IOMs Constitution and as shown in Table 1 below.37 Further information on how IOM has evolved as an organization,especially since 2016,is in Appendix A.3836 Martin,2014.37 IOM,2020a.38

1,IOMs presence around the world has grown over time,in part a reflection of the increased focus on migration governance,but also due to the unfortunate reality concerning the growth in internal displacement and the humanitarian and other support needed by some migrant populations.As outlined in Chapters 2 and 3 of this report,the long-term trends regarding migration and displacement vary according to a range of factors,including geography.IOMs regional offices therefore often reflect the regional dynamics associated with migration and displacement trends,and events over time.What this means in practice is that while the United Nations refers to six geographic regions(see Appendix A in Chapter 3 for regional compositions),IOM has nine geographic regions:East and Horn of Africa;West and Central Africa;Southern Africa;Middle East and North Africa;Asia and the Pacific;South-Eastern Europe,Eastern Europe and Central Asia;European Economic Area,the European Union and NATO;South America;Central America,North America and the Caribbean.The core of the work in all of the regional offices(and Headquarters)reflects IOMs Strategic Vision,39 adopted in 2019,and its Constitution,with particular reference to the principle that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society.As an intergovernmental organization,IOM acts with its partners in the international community to:assist in the meeting of operational challenges of migration;advance understanding of migration issues;encourage social and economic development through migration;and uphold the human dignity and well-being of migrants.The precise activities involved in fulfilling its mandate at the regional level does,however,reflect the specific needs and migration realities on the ground,as highlighted in Appendix B.39 IOM,2019a.10Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresThe World Migration Report seriesThe first world migration report was published 22 years ago,initially as a one-off report designed to increase the understanding of migration by policymakers and the general public.It was conceived at a time when the effects of globalization were being felt in many parts of the world and in a multitude of ways.Indeed,the first world migration report states that part of its genesis was due to the effects of globalization on migration patterns,and that the report therefore“looks at the increasingly global economy which has led to an unprecedented influx of newcomers in many countries”.40 The report highlighted the fact that,despite being an“age-old phenomenon”,migration was accelerating as part of broader globalization transformations of economic and trade processes that were enabling greater movement of labour,as well as goods and capital.Table 2 below provides a summary of key statistics reported in the first edition(World Migration Report 2000),as compared to this current edition.It shows that while some aspects have stayed fairly constant the proportion of female international migrants,as well as the overall proportion of the worlds population who were migrants other aspects have changed dramatically.International remittances,for example,have grown from an estimated USD128billion to USD702billion,underscoring the salience of international migration as a driver of development.It is unsurprising then that the International Organization for Migration itself has grown in size,with a significant increase in membership over the last two decades,up from 76 to its current membership of 174 States.Also of note in Table 2 is the rise in international migrants globally(up by about 87%)as well as of refugees(up by about 89%)and internally displaced persons(up by about 160%),all the while remaining very small proportions of the worlds population.Table 2.Key facts and figures from World Migration Reports 2000 and 202220002022Estimated number of international

IOM,2000.11WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022The World Migration Report 2000s contribution to migration policy as well as migration studies was timely,and its success heralded the World Migration Report series.Since 2000,11 world migration reports have been produced by IOM,and the report continues to focus on making a relevant,sound and evidence-based contribution that increases the understanding of migration by policymakers,practitioners,researchers and the general public.To support this objective,the series was refined in 2016,moving away from a single theme for each edition to a global reference report for a wider audience.Each edition now has two parts comprising:Part I:Key data and information on migration and migrants;Part II:Balanced,evidence-based analysis of complex and emerging migration issues.New digital tools through expert collaborationThe World Migration Report series now incorporates a range of digital tools tailored for use in various settings.The tools have been developed in partnerships with some of the worlds leading experts in migration data analysis,data visualization,education and the sciencepolicy interface.The new World Migration Report interactive data visualizations were developed in recognition of the need to deliver outputs in a wide range of formats for expanded accessibility and utility.Launched in May 2021,the interactive data visualizations allow users to both read the“headline”summaries on long-term trends,while also interacting with data points to explore specific time periods,corridors or countries.The new interactive format has become the centrepiece of the World Migration Report online platform,which was awarded gold for the first time at the 2021 International Annual Report Design Awards.41 Additional tools for people working in migration and learning about migration,such as the educators toolkit and the forthcoming officials toolkit,demonstrate the growing salience of migration as well as the utility of the report.42 IOM partners with an extensive range of experts in developing and delivering both the report and the related tools in a wide variety of languages to increase local use.43World Migration Report 2022This edition builds on the previous two reports(2018 and 2020 editions)by providing updated migration statistics at the global and regional levels,as well as descriptive analysis of complex migration issues.Part I,on“key data and information on migration”,includes separate chapters on global migration trends and patterns;regional dimensions and developments;and a discussion of recent contributions to migration research and analysis by the United Nations system,including IOM.These three chapters have been produced institutionally by IOM,drawing primarily on analyses by IOM experts,practitioners and officials around the world,based on data from a wide range of relevant organizations.The eight chapters in Part II are authored by applied and academic researchers working on migration,including IOM researchers.They cover a range of“complex and emerging migration issues”including:COVID-19 impacts on migration,mobility and migrants;peace and security as drivers of development and safe migration;41 IADA,2021.42 See https:/worldmigrationreport.iom.int/about.43 See the“partners”page on the World Migration Report website(https:/worldmigrationreport.iom.int/about),which includes many academic institutions,as well as leading policy think tanks and education organizations.12Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futures migration as a stepladder of opportunity;disinformation about migration;migration and slow-onset climate change;human trafficking in migration pathways;artificial intelligence and migration;and migrants contributions globally.While the choice of these topics is necessarily selective and subjective,all the chapters in Part II of this report are directly relevant to some of the most prominent and important debates about migration in the world today.Many of these topics lie at the heart of the conundrums that face policymakers as they seek to formulate effective,proportionate and constructive responses to complex public policy issues related to migration.Accordingly,the chapters aim to inform current and future policy deliberations and discussions by providing a clear identification of the key issues,a critical overview of relevant research and analysis,and a discussion of the implications for future research and policymaking.The chapters are not meant to be prescriptive,in the sense of advocating particular policy“solutions”especially as the immediate context is an important determinant of policy settings but to be informative and helpful in what can be highly contested debates.Part I:Key data and information on migration and migrantsChapter 2 provides an overview of global data and trends on international migrants(stocks)and international migration(flows).It also provides a discussion of particular migrant groups namely,migrant workers,refugees,asylum seekers and internally displaced persons as well as of international remittances.In addition,the chapter refers to the existing body of IOM programmatic data,particularly on missing migrants,assisted voluntary returns and reintegration,resettlement,and displacement tracking.While these data are generally not global or representative,they can provide insights into changes that have occurred in relevant IOM programming and operations globally.Following the global overview,Chapter 3 provides a discussion of key regional dimensions of,and developments in,migration.The discussion focuses on six world regions as identified by the United Nations:Africa,Asia,Europe,Latin America and the Caribbean,Northern America,and Oceania.For each of these regions,the analysis includes:(a)an overview and brief discussion of key population-related statistics;and(b)succinct descriptions of“key features and developments”in migration in the region,based on a wide range of data,information and analyses,including from international organizations,researchers and analysts.To account for the diversity of migration patterns,trends and issues within each of the six regions,along with descriptive narratives of“key features and recent developments”,are presented at the subregional level.There is a substantial amount of research and analysis on migration that is being undertaken and published by a range of actors such as academics,governments,intergovernmental organizations and think tanks.Chapter 4 provides a broad overview of contributions by the United Nations system,including the United Nations Network on Migration(UNNM)as part of supporting the ongoing implementation of the Global Compact for Safe,Orderly and Regular Migration,the Global Compact on Refugees and the Sustainable Development Goals.13WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022Part II:Complex and Emerging Migration IssuesChapter 5 The Great Disrupter:COVID-19s impact on migration,mobility and migrants globally This chapter provides an analysis of the impacts of the pandemic on migration and mobility,with particular reference to migrants immobility and vulnerabilities.It focuses on the first year of COVID-19.For people who had migrated,been displaced and/or were part of a highly mobile group prior to COVID-19,the likelihood of having been directly affected by the pandemic is especially high.Aside from health-related impacts,many became trapped in immobility and unemployed,without income support or other social protection.COVID-19 led to large-scale stranded migrant populations,with some experiencing destitution,detention and abuse.COVID-19 highlighted that widely accepted norms previously considered to be cornerstones of international mobility were quickly set aside in the face of the pandemic.The pandemic also pointed to pervasive inequalities deeply rooted in modern-day societies around the world,while also demonstrating that migrant workers and diaspora are frontline workers not only in essential occupations,but also as agents of global human development as remitters.Chapter 6 Peace and security as drivers of stability,development and safe migration This chapter draws upon existing evidence to explore the interaction between conflict,instability and insecurity;development;and migration,showing that instability or conflict feed negatively on development and hence drive displacement,asylum-seeking and unsafe migration.The chapter also goes beyond these well-documented links to show how migration can contribute to stability and development and thus mitigate the conditions that lead to irregular migration and displacement.It highlights some of the pragmatic peacebuilding initiatives,such as community stabilization,that have proven key within the context of migration and displacement to building and sustaining peace at a local level.It also shows how migrants,through a range of activities,contribute to peacebuilding.They do this by advocating for peace,through mediation,building public service institutions,and supporting their families and communities through remittances.14Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresChapter 7 International migration as a stepladder of opportunity:What do the global data actually show?This chapter examines the key questions of“who migrates internationally and where do they go?”It presents analysis of a range of statistical data and draws upon some of the existing body of research on migration determinants and decision-making.Analysis of international migrant stock and human development index data show that between 1995 and 2020,migration from low-and medium-development countries increased,but only slightly,reconfirming existing macroeconomic analyses which show that international migration from low-income countries has historically been limited.However,contrary to previous understandings of international migration,the analysis indicates that there has been a“polarizing”effect,with migration activity increasingly being associated with highly developed countries.This raises the key issue of migration aspirations held by potential migrants from developing countries around the world who may wish to realize opportunities through international migration,but are unable to do so as legal pathways are unavailable to them.Chapter 8 Disinformation about migration:An age-old issue with new tech dimensions This chapter examines the factors shaping disinformation about migration in terms of society,politics,media and technology.It outlines best practices in building public resilience to disinformation and the major insights from current research,with reference to major gaps in our understanding of disinformation and the current barriers to advancing this work.The chapter highlights evidence and practical examples from around the world and from a variety of contexts.It also identifies recommendations and implications for policymakers and other stakeholders seeking to counteract disinformation generally and about migration specifically.15WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022Chapter 9 Migration and slow-onset impacts of climate change:Taking stock and taking action This chapter focuses on migration in the context of the slow-onset impacts of climate change,an area where policy and knowledge gaps remain.It presents some of the key challenges associated with understanding and taking action on slow-onset climate impacts and migration issues,and explores how migration policy and practice can play a role in responding to some of the most pressing challenges.Looking ahead at a future in which slow-onset climate events are expected to worsen,appropriate migration management policies and practices can and should be part of the solution.Recent examples of migration policy initiatives that address climate impacts on migration,including slow-onset dimensions,are outlined in the chapter.At the global level,policy discussions have identified some entry points where migration policymakers could be instrumental in promoting positive changes,notably in terms of facilitating migration in the context of slow-onset climate events,and there has been growing interest among both developed and developing States in discussing migration linked to climate impacts in policy terms.Chapter 10 Human trafficking in migration pathways:Trends,challenges and new forms of cooperation This chapter provides an overview of current trafficking trends and patterns,looking at the available data on migrant victims of human trafficking and traffickers.It explores current challenges and promising avenues for the prevention of trafficking of migrants,including prosecuting traffickers,protecting victims and cooperating in counter-trafficking efforts.There is widespread global consensus on the urgent need to prevent and combat human trafficking in migration pathways,with few other migration-related issues having attained as much agreement within the international community.However,there is less consensus on how to achieve this in practice,and there remains a shortfall in political will to introduce effective policies to that end.The chapter offers insights in this area across several domains.16Report overview:Technological,geopolitical and environmental transformations shaping our migration and mobility futuresChapter 11 Artificial intelligence,migration and mobility:Implications for policy and practice This chapter examines the implications of AI for policy and practice in the context of migration and mobility through the prism of the existing international human rights framework of rules,standards and principles.This is important because of the potential for human rights to be eroded or bolstered as a result of the design,development,implementation and expansion of AI technologies around the world.The use of AI throughout the“migration cycle”is examined,with reflections on key strategic challenges and opportunities in this important area of new technology,including as it relates to the“future of work”and long-term migration trends.While AI can certainly bring about a series of advantages for policy and practice,there are a range of risks to State and non-State actors(including migrants)that need to be carefully managed,especially from regulatory and human rights perspectives.Chapter 12 Reflections on migrants contributions in an era of increasing disruption and disinformation“REPEAT”This chapter first appeared in the World Migration Report 2020.The research for this chapter inspired us to delve deeper into the topic of disinformation,resulting in Chapter 8 on disinformation about migration(in this volume).The last two years,however,have shown us that the issue has not abated.In fact,with COVID-19 disinformation,the massive challenges concerning balanced and accurate accounts of migrants contributions have only become worse.So,here it is again,to remind us of the importance of the topic and so additional readers can draw upon its contents.17WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022Overall,this world migration report has been produced to help deepen our collective understanding of the various manifestations and complexities of migration in the face of systemic and accelerated change.We hope that all readers are able to learn something new from this edition,as well as to draw on its contents as they undertake their work,study or other activities.18WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022PART IKEY DATA AND INFORMATION ON MIGRATION AND MIGRANTS19WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 202221WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 20222MIGRATION AND MIGRANTS:A GLOBAL OVERVIEW IntroductionDescribing and analysing how migration around the world is changing from a range of different perspectives,including those entailing economic,social and security dimensions(and associated legalpolicy frameworks),must start with an understanding of fundamental metrics.Human migration may well be an age-old activity touching almost every society around the world;however,it is changing in important ways.Examining the shifts in scale,direction,demography and frequency can illuminate how migration is evolving while also pointing to long-term trends that have been shaped by historical as well as recent events.The current global estimate is that there were around 281 million international migrants in the world in 2020,which equates to 3.6percent of the global population.1 A first important point to note is that this is a very small minority of the worlds population,meaning that staying within ones country of birth overwhelmingly remains the norm.The great majority of people do not migrate across borders;much larger numbers migrate within countries.2 That said,these estimates relate to migrant populations,rather than movement events.The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the interconnections between migration and mobility,with COVID-19 travel restrictions resulting in unprecedented immobility around the world.At the time of writing(July 2021),travel restrictions in many countries were being(re)imposed or strengthened as virus strains circulate the globe,testing the worlds collective resilience in the face of a global health crisis unseen in the preceding century.When mobility regimes are not impeded by global pandemics,the overwhelming majority of people migrate internationally for reasons related to work,family and study involving migration processes that largely occur without fundamentally challenging either migrants or the countries they enter.In contrast,other people leave their homes and countries for a range of compelling and sometimes tragic reasons,such as conflict,persecution and disaster.While those who have been displaced,such as refugees and internally displaced persons(IDPs),comprise a relatively small percentage of all migrants,they are often the most in need of assistance and support.This chapter,with its focus on key global migration data and trends,as well as new COVID-19 mobility and travel-related data,seeks to assist migration policymakers,practitioners and researchers in making better sense of the bigger picture of migration,by providing an up-to-date overview of global migration and migrants.The chapter draws upon current statistical sources compiled by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs(UN DESA),the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD),the International Labour Organization(ILO),the World Bank,the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees(UNHCR),the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre(IDMC),the International Organization for Migration(IOM)and the University 1 UN DESA,2021a.2 The most recent estimate was 740 million internal migrants globally in 2009(UNDP,2009).22Migration and migrants:A global overviewof Oxford.3 The chapter provides an overview of global data and trends on international migrants(stocks)and international migration(flows).It also provides a discussion of particular migrant groups namely,migrant workers,refugees,asylum seekers,IDPs and missing migrants as well as of international remittances and COVID-19-related mobility restrictions.The chapter also refers to the body of programmatic IOM data,particularly on assisted voluntary returns and reintegration,resettlement and displacement tracking.4 While these data are generally not global or representative,they can provide insights into changes that have occurred in relevant programming and operations globally.As the United Nations migration agency,with activities relevant to all the themes discussed in this chapter,IOM data have the capacity to provide further insights on migration and its various dynamics,including the diverse needs of migrants.Defining migration,migrant and other key termsOutside of general definitions of migration and migrant,such as those found in dictionaries,there exist various specific definitions of key migration-related terms,including in legal,administrative,research and statistical spheres.a While there is no universally agreed definition of migration or migrant,several definitions are widely accepted and have been developed in different settings,such as those set out in UN DESAs 1998 Recommendations on Statistics of International Migration.b Work has recently been completed by the United Nations Statistical Division and a task force of the United Nations Expert Group on Migration Statistics on a revised conceptual framework on statistics on international migration and mobility to guide the process under way in updating the 1998 Recommendations.c The conceptual framework was endorsed by the United Nations Statistical Commission at its 52nd session in March 2021,paving the way for revised recommendations on international migrant and mobility that are better able to account for different aspects of mobility,including migration.d The conceptual framework is summarized in Appendix A.Technical definitions,concepts and categories of migrants and migration are necessarily informed by geographic,legal,political,methodological,temporal and other factors.For example,there are numerous ways in which migration events can be defined,including in relation to place of birth,citizenship,place of residence and duration of stay.e This is important when it comes to quantifying and analysing the effects of migration and migrants,however defined.We encourage readers to refer to primary sources cited in the chapter for information on specific definitions and categorizations underlying the data.Readers may also find the IOM Glossary on Migration(2019 edition)to be a useful reference.The Glossary is available at the IOM Publications Platform:https:/publications.iom.int/books/international-migration-law-ndeg34-glossary-migration.a See,for example,Poulain and Perrin,2001.b UN DESA,1998.c United Nations Statistics Division,2021.d United Nations Statistical Commission,2021.e See,for example,de Beer et al.,2010.3 To keep within the scope of this report,statistics utilized in this chapter were current as at 30 June 2021,unless otherwise stated.4 IOM data on victims of human trafficking are presented in Chapter 10 of this report.23WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022International migrants:numbers and trendsUN DESA produces estimates of the number of international migrants globally.The following discussion draws on its estimates,which are based on data provided by States.5 The current United Nations Recommendations on Statistics of International Migration defines an“international migrant”as any person who has changed his or her country of usual residence,distinguishing between“short-term migrants”(those who have changed their countries of usual residence for at least three months,but less than one year)and“long-term migrants”(those who have done so for at least one year).However,not all countries use this definition in practice.6 Some countries use different criteria to identify international migrants,for example by applying different minimum durations of residence.Differences in concepts and definitions,as well as data collection methodologies between countries,hinder full comparability of national statistics on international migrants.A review of the United Nations recommendations is currently under way,as discussed in the text box above.The estimated number of international migrants has increased over the past 50 years.In 2020,almost 281 million people lived in a country other than their country of birth,or about 128 million more than 30 years earlier,in 1990(153 million),and over three times the estimated number in 1970(84 million).The proportion of international migrants as a share of the total global population has also increased,but only incrementally.The vast majority of people live in the country in which they were born.The impact of COVID-19 on the global population of international migrants is somewhat difficult to assess,one reason for this being that the latest available data are as at mid-2020,7 fairly early in the pandemic.That said,it is estimated that COVID-19 may have reduced the growth in the stock of international migrants by around two million.In other words,had there not been COVID-19,the number of international migrants in 2020 would have likely been around 283 million.8 Table 1.International migrants,19702020YearNumber of international migrantsMigrants as

UN DESA,2021c.24Migration and migrants:A global overviewWhen international migrant populations are examined by United Nations region,Europe is currently the largest destination for international migrants,with 87 million migrants(30.9%of the international migrant population),followed closely by the 86 million international migrants living in Asia(30.5%).9 Northern America is the destination for 59 million international migrants(20.9%),followed by Africa with 25 million migrants(9%).Over the past 15 years,the number of international migrants in Latin America and the Caribbean has more than doubled from around 7 million to 15 million,making it the region with the highest growth rate of international migrants and the destination for 5.3percent of all international migrants.Around 9 million international migrants live in Oceania,or about 3.3percent of all migrants.The growth of international migrants living in each region between 2005 and 2020 is shown in Figure 1.Figure 1.International migrants,by major region of residence,20052020(millions)0 20 40 60 80 100AfricaAsiaEuropeLatin America and the CaribbeanNorth AmericaOceania2005201020152020Source:UN DESA,2021a.Oceania has the largest share of international migrants as a proportion of the total population,with 22percent of the population having been born in another country.Northern America has the second largest share of international migrants at 15.9percent,followed by Europe at 11.6percent.Latin America and the Caribbean,Africa,and Asia have international migrant shares of 2.3,1.9,and 1.8percent respectively.As has been the case for the past 50 years,the United States of America remains the primary destination for migrants,at over 51 million international migrants.Germany has become the second most prominent destination,with nearly 16 million international migrants,while Saudi Arabia is the third largest destination country for international migrants,at 13 million.The Russian Federation and the United Kingdom round out the top five destination countries,with about 12 million and 9 million international migrants respectively.A list of the top 20 destination countries for migrants can be found in the left panel of Figure 2.9 UN DESA,2021a.25WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022With nearly 18 million people living abroad,India has the largest emigrant population in the world,making it the top origin country globally.Mexico is the second most significant origin country at around 11 million.The Russian Federation is the third largest origin country,followed closely by China(around 10.8 million and 10 million respectively).The fifth most significant origin country is the Syrian Arab Republic,with over 8 million people living abroad,mainly as refugees due to large-scale displacement over the last decade(see discussion in the refugee section below).The panel on the right in Figure 2 features the top 20 origins of migrants in 2020.Figure 2.Top 20

DESA,2021a.26Migration and migrants:A global overviewWorld Migration Report Data Visualization PlatformIn May 2021,IOM launched a new World Migration Report web portal that integrates fact-based migration narratives with interactive data visualizations on the most up-to-date global migration data and trends.a This digital format offers an intuitive representation of the data by displaying interactive visualizations of global migration trends.Building on the analysis developed in the report,the site provides country-level migration statistics and maps,interactive visualizations of migration corridors,and the leading remittance recipient and source nations since 1995,in addition to global and regional data.New interactive components on COVID-19 restrictions were added from this current report.By creating a visual context for the information,data visualization favors a more accessible comprehension of the magnitudes of the numbers and the trends at play,supplementing the extensive analysis presented in the report.The interactive platform is available in English,French and Spanish.a IOM,2020a.The available international migrant data include estimates of origin and destination links between two countries,allowing for the estimation of bilateral migration“corridors”globally.The size of a migration corridor from country A to country B is measured as the number of people born in country A who were residing in country B in 2020.Migration corridors represent an accumulation of migratory movements over time and provide a snapshot of how migration patterns have evolved into significant foreign-born populations in specific destination countries.As can be seen in Figure 3,the Mexico to United States corridor is the largest in the world at nearly 11 million people.The second is from the Syrian Arab Republic to Turkey,comprising mainly refugees displaced by the Syrian Arab Republics decade-long civil war.On the other hand,the third largest corridor in the world,India to the United Arab Emirates(over 3 million),comprises mainly labour migrants.The bilateral corridor between the Russian Federation and Ukraine take up spots four and five among the largest corridors in the world.About 3million people born in the Russian Federation now live in Ukraine,while nearly the same number of people have moved from Ukraine to the Russian Federation.27WORLD

second.Corridors represent an accumulation of migratory movements over time and provide a snapshot of how migration patterns have evolved into significant foreign-born populations in specific destination countries.Most international migrants(around 78%)were of working age(between 15 and 64 years of age).Since 1990,the share of international migrants age 19 and younger has dropped from 18.9percent to 14.6percent,while international migrants older than 64 have remained steady at around 12.2percent.There is currently a larger number of male than female international migrants worldwide,and the gap has increased over the past 20 years.In 2000,the male to female split was 50.6 to 49.4percent(or 88 million male migrants and 86 million female migrants).In 2020 the split is 51.9 to 48.0percent,with 146 million male migrants and 135million female migrants.The share of female migrants has been decreasing since 2000,while the share of male migrants has increased by 1.4 percentage points.See Figure 4 for further breakdowns by sex.28Migration and migrants:A global overviewFigure 4.International migrants,by sex,2000202002040608010012014016020002005201020152020millions

move,whether from a rural area to a city,from one district or province in a given country to another in that same country,or from one country to a new country.It involves action.In contrast,a migrant is a person described as such for one or more reasons,depending on the context(see the text box on“Defining migration,migrant and other key terms”above).While in many cases“migrants”do undertake some form of migration,this is not always the case.In some situations,people who have never undertaken migration may be referred to as migrants children of people born overseas,for example,are commonly called second-or third-generation migrants.a This may even extend to situations involving statelessness,whereby whole groups of people are not able to access citizenship despite being born and raised in a country.Such people may even be referred to as irregular migrants by authorities.ba See,for example,Neto,1995;Fertig and Schmidt,2001.b Kyaw,2017.29WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2022International migration flowsWhile data on migrant stocks are widely available,data on global migration movements(flows)are much more limited.Available UN DESA estimates on global migrant stocks are extensive and global in scope;however,the database of migration flows only encompasses 45 countries.10 Capturing data on migration flows is extremely challenging for several reasons.First,while international migration flows are generally accepted as covering inflows and outflows into and from countries,there has been a greater focus on recording inflows.For example,while countries such as Australia and the United States record cross-border movements,many others only count entries and not departures.11 Additionally,migration flow data in some countries are derived from administrative events related to immigration status(for example,issuance/renewal/withdrawal of a residence permit),which are then used as a proxy for migration flows.Furthermore,migratory movements are often hard to separate from non-migratory travel,such as tourism or business.12 Tracking migratory movements also requires considerable resources,infrastructure and ICT/knowledge systems.This poses particular challenges for developing countries,where the ability to collect,administer,analyse and report data on mobility,migration and other areas is often limited.Finally,many countries physical geographies pose tremendous challenges for collecting data on migration flows.Entry and border management,for example,is particularly challenging in some regions because of archipelagic and isolated borders,and is further complicated by traditions of informal migration for work.13There are currently two main data sets on international migration flows,both of which are derived from national statistics:UN DESAs International Migration Flows data set and OECDs International Migration Database.Since 2005,UN DESA has compiled data on the flows of international migrants to and from selected countries,based on nationally available statistics.At the time of writing(July 2021),there had been no update to the UN DESA flows data set,with the most current being the 2015 version.The 2015 migration flows data set comprises data from 45 countries,up from 29 countries in 2008 and 15 countries in 2005.14The OECD has been collecting international migration flow data since 2000,allowing for trend analysis to be conducted over a subset of major destination countries,depicted in Figure 5(though data are not standardized,as explained in the note under the figure).The latest available data indicate that in 2018,a 10percent increase in permanent migration inflows was recorded from the previous year of 2017.The United States,one of the main destination countries,recorded around 1.1 million new entries in 2018,a 2.7percent decrease compared with the previous year.Another country that recorded a notable change was Chile,with 64percent growth.With regard to the European countries in OECD,total migration increased by around 136,000 in 2018(3.2%more than 2017).Within Europe,the United Kingdom and Italy recorded 6.5 and 5.2percent declines in permanent flows,respectively.The growth in Europe was instead led by Spain( 23%,or an increase of around 106,000)and Portugal( 52%,or an increase of around 32,000).10 UN DESA,2015.11 Koser,2010;McAuliffe and Koser,2017.12 Skeldon,2018.13 Gallagher and McAuliffe,2016.14 For UN DESA migration flow data,as well as for the specific countries included,please see UN DESA,2015.30Migration and migrants:A global overviewFigure 5.Inflows of foreign nationals

and therefore differ from statistics on permanent migration inflows into selected countries contained in OECDs International Migration Outlook series.The 35 countries typically included in OECD statistics are the following:Australia,Austria,Belgium,Canada,Chile,Czechia,Denmark,Estonia,Finland,France,Germany,Greece,Hungary,Iceland,Ireland,Israel,Italy,Japan,Latvia,Luxembourg,Mexico,the Netherlands,New Zealand,Norway,Poland,Portugal,Republic of Korea,Slovakia,Slovenia,Spain,Sweden,Switzerland,Turkey,the United Kingdom and the United States.In some years,data for particular countries are not available:data were made available for 31 countries in 2000.Notably,data for Greece have not been reported between 2000 and 2004,and data for Turkey were reported only for 2010,2016,2017 and 2018.The impacts of COVID-19 on mobility globally are discussed below in this chapter and also in Chapter 5 of this report.Unsafe migration flows Some migration corridors pose many more challenges than others,for migrants as well as for authorities.Migrants journeys can sometimes be characterized by unsafe and even deadly outcomes,often related to a range of social,political,economic,environmental and policy factors that can profoundly impact the way in which people undertake migration.15 In the wake of the tragic

Skincare Consumer Illustration and Future Market OutlookChina Skincare Market Whitepaper2023 Market Whitepaper Series 01She says 2Gabrielle KongVP of Strategy,Chief EditorTing YuanInsight&Data LeadVonnie WanAssociate DirectorJoy LongMedia MasterEsperanza WangInsight&Data ManagerIris SongSenior Executive3Gabrielle KongLife ArtistSkincare ritual,as an essential part of the self-indulgent culture,shows your lifestyle attitude.For example,I pay closer attention to rituals in their day-to-day life and shows a higher awareness regarding self-care.Whether its Gen Z or millennials,they both have higher requirements for life.The idea that“I am living not surviving”has resonated greatly with todays Chinese,and they look to reward themselves under hustle culture with quality lifestyles.Ting YuanHabitual FollowerIts a balancing act when it comes to time allocation.Whilst multi-tasking from a number of roles including mum,daughter,wife,employee and friends,my philosphy is to minimise time spent,and room for error by choosing the product of the brands I trust.We live in the age when new products show up all the time,its ever more important for brands to build equity and trust.Vonnie WanLife ArtistSkincare is not just about skincare,but more like my own ritual than makeup.The choice of products represents the degree of self-care,the choice of brand represents the tag of self-recognition,and efficacy and user experience is for self-pleasing.During our research,we gradually find that this personalized consumer behavior reflects various individuals different pursuit of experience value,and then the consumer personas become three-dimensional.4Esperanza WangBeauty QueenLife for me is an adventure,exploring the world and collecting new experiences while growing on the way and learning about myself by looking inward.For skincare,I have the same philosophy:I favor the premium brands while try the niche ones in trend;as long as I think they-brands,efficacy,formulas,etc.-have a reputation and suit my skin type,I would love to add new ones on top of my skincare routine.This is also the process of constantly understanding my skin type and refreshing my knowledge.Joy LongLife ArtistSkincare,a topic that every woman,and more and more men,cannot live without.It is time for self communication,respect and love.What skincare can bring us is not only a skin texture that can withstand the test of time,but also self-love and self-confidence that sprouts from the bottom of our hearts.This is why skincare is becoming more and more important to people.Iris SongCurious ExplorerSkincare is becoming a special ritual for women to please themselves in daily life.Skincare products have not only functional benefits,but other spiritual values like identity and ideal projection.The upgrading of consumer demands has spurred the rise of diversified skincare brands.Its difficult for brands to target their audience by the old classification method based on age and income.In the era of big data&precise advertising,I am curious about if data can help brand find more insight.5PrefaceOver the past year,the mainlands crowded and highly competitive beauty market has undergone a total reshuffle.We have also experienced through the“changing”new normal.Ahead of IWD,we launch this whitepaper to give you a unique perspective and methodology provided by Essencemediacom to show how we decode the industry of“beauty”and its consumers.Gabrielle KongVP of Strategy,Chief EditorThe challenging industry:Rapid growth phase of Chinas facial skincare market has come and goneWith the advancement of Chinas domestic economy and the upgrade of national consumer demand,Beauty Economy was rapidly on the rise.Before 2019,Chinese facial skincare market had been growing for five years,and its consumer market share even ranked the second in the world in 2018.Affected by Covid-19 and the economic downturn,the growth in Chinas skincare market size has slowed down.The Consumer Confidence Index in October 2022 was 87.2,down from 121.7 in 2021 and the lowest in nearly 11 years.The penetration of Chinas skincare market is relatively saturated,but the per capita spend is only 27.8 US dollars(2020),lower than that of the United States,Japan and other developed countries,and the industry has entered the era of stock competition.61,482 1,637 1,851 2,130 2,369 2,587 2,807 3,036 4.50.4.0.1.2%9.2%8.5%8.1%0%5 %0%0.0500.01,000.01,500.02,000.02,500.03,000.03,500.02016201720182019202020212022E

businesses have enhanced their products and competitive edge with technological innovations,and this led to the growth of product line in superior efficacy.And with the popularity of skincare

and did not impose too many high-effect products that were difficult to absorb by the skin.My skin looked good simply by moisturizing and nourishing.50%of Chinese consumers who buy Chinese local cosmetics live in first-tier or new first-tier cities“”I bought Proya and Winona in Li Jiaqi live streaming for several times and found that these Chinese products were quite good.They have the same famous ingredients as those big names,their prices are cheaper,and they are effective too.I might as well use the money I save to eat something good.of Chinese consumers who buy international premium brands live in third-and fourth-tier cities“”Although the income in small cities is not high,the expense is also low,and with the support of my parents,I have quite a bit of spare money.I dont have

learning into processes 16 5G:turning the future into reality 18 Conclusions 21Water Technology Trends 20223 ForewordSince the pandemic began,utilities have had no choice but to adapt to the new scenario of uncertainty.Over the last two years,we have learned about the importance of sound water management in our daily lives,and how innovation can open the floodgates to the future.Our responsibility in the water industry is to ensure that future generations have access to clean drinking water and proper sanitation,in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.For this to happen,utilities will need to digitally transform water cycle management over the next few years.Citizens in the 21st century are demanding intelligent use of our most precious resource.In this sense,growing concerns about the environmental impact of processes will encourage the adoption of technologies that reduce our water,carbon and energy footprints.On the road to tackling these current challenges,we will only succeed if we have a solid business vision to guide the transformation of data into information for decision-making.This is how utilities can determine the best way to move forward.The tech-nology trends for 2022 reviewed in this whitepaper(Digital Twins,AMI,GIS,5G,AI and intelligent asset management)will bring innovative use cases that will transform the industry.The time to build a more sustainable world is now.The future of water is not only about technology,but also about people.Unlike machines,we can combine technologies and knowledge to transform todays management.The journey to unlocking value through digital transformation has just started,and the most innovative utilities are already on board.Jaime BarbaCEO,Idrica 4 Trend#1Water Technology Trends

and more water utilities are realizing the value of measuring consumption beyond billing.These infrastructures can improve all business processes,because of the large numbers of sensors deployed on them compared to other IoT systems in the water industry.For some years now,water utilities have been investing in the digital transformation of micro-metering,not as an end in itself,but as a way to extract value from data and turn information into business intelligence.Growing investment in AMI globally is intended to help businesses and consumers make better decisions,not just reactive or corrective ones.They help them to predict.The road to Big DataDevelopments in meters are one of the most important advances of the last 50 years in the water industry.From the first innovations,centering on faster,remote reading(walk-by and drive-by),which was mainly geared towards billing,the meter becomes an IoT sensor that transmits useful information to digitally transform all processes in AMI systems.If the term AMR(Automatic Meter Reading)refers to remote reading using smart meters connected to communication devices,AMI goes one step further.It focuses not only on data collection,but also on its integration and processing using Big Data technologies.Platforms are a key element of these infrastructures,which are the most mature in the micro-metering field.Their aim is to offer value-added services and to manage water resources more effi-ciently.For example,developing algorithms to detect leaks and predict demand.To achieve this,AMI must ideally process consumption data on an hourly basis with optimum quality.Compared to proprietary protocols and LPWAN technologies,such as SigFox and Lora,new communication protocols(NB-IoT,5G)are helping to make this a reality due to their greater scope,penetration and coverage.In addition,they enable more efficient battery management,which is essential if we take into account smart meterings need to frequently send data.Meters have become IoT sensors that help to digitally transform all processes.0102035 Water Technology Trends 2022:AMIConnecting consumption data with other sources of information,such as SCADA,CMMS,ERP,GIS and IoT sensors,means that companies can optimize all their processes.Their integration into a digital twin,among other use cases,is essential to simu-late scenarios accurately in order to gauge the networks response to events and make better decisions.It also reduces OPEX and helps to predict water demands in advance.Benefits over and above billingAMI deployment reduces the volume of unbilled water in the distribution network by conducting hourly water balances.This enables us to improve overall system efficiency by detecting fraud and locating leaks at an early stage and notifying customers accord-ingly.In addition,remote reading helps to reduce energy consumption and the environmental impact of other processes,such as operators having to travel around to take visual readings.Data analysis opens the door to useful services such as alerts for domestic leaks and notifications to social services after a change in the consumption patterns of vulnerable people.Greater trans-parency in the relationship between utilities and the general public is another of the advantages.Thanks to AMI,households can see the liters of water they use in real time to make better,more informed decisions.In addition,billing based on actual,rather than estimated,readings increases satisfaction and brings down billing-related complaints.Increased operational efficiencyMore sustainable use of resourcesValue-added services for citizens6 Water Technology Trends 2022:AMICarlos TejedorSmart Metering&Instrumentation Specialist,IdricaWe have recently witnessed water outages in countries such as the United States,which we thought would be spared from these disruptions,until now.These events,along with others caused by climate change,are driving a greater global awareness of water as a limited resource.Today,society demands a commitment from companies and utilities to ensure responsible water consumption,in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.According to the World Bank,by 2030,there will be a 40%world shortfall between the forecast demand for water and the amount available.In the light of this situation,govern-ments and the different social partners are highly likely to support technologies that represent a step forward in terms of sustainability.AMI is one of these technologies,as it helps us to take the first step towards process improvement through metering.Given that it is the system that generates the largest amount of information in the industry,its impact ripples out to the entire business community.In this sense,more and more utilities understand that these infrastructures not only facilitate billing,but also serve to improve leak detection,forecast demand through algorithms,increase customer satisfaction,fine tune digital twin simulations and reduce CO2 emissions.Digital transformation in the water industry will gather speed in the coming years.The increased volume of available data will require the implementation of agnostic solu-tions,capable of integrating information from different sources.Right now,many water utilities use different communication technologies(NB-IoT,LoRa,Sigfox,etc.)and meters manufactured by different vendors.Therefore,Big Data platforms that standardize information and help us to convert it into business intelligence will be one of the main trends for 2022.The increased use of sensors we expect to see poses one of the main challenges for AMI:the coexistence of smart metering with other smart devices.Fortunately,5G provides an answer to this problem,thanks to its ability to connect millions of devices in a small area(MIoT).We are still investigating the use cases linked to this new genera-tion of technology,but we already know that it will help us to manage critical infrastructures and be more efficient.AMI is also the direct interface between utilities and consumers,which is why our commitment to this infra-structure means advancing transparency objectives for citizens.By making consumption information available to them,we are helping to promote responsible water use.This is also true for companies,as this technology helps them to calculate their water footprint.The search for water efficiency,both in water utilities and among citizens,will drive investment in AMI in the coming years.Therefore,awareness of how these infrastructures can transform both billing and all the processes related to the management of water,our most precious resource,will be fundamental.2022:more metering for better managementDigital twins promote two-way communication between utilities and citizens.7 Water Technology Trends 2022:Digital TwinsTrend#2transforming the real world through the virtual Digital Twins:When discussing the impact of digital twins in the water industry,not all experts do so from a common standpoint about this technology,though perhaps the most widely accepted definition is that they are a virtual copy of the water supply system,simulating how it behaves.As a proxy for real behavior,digital twins help us to make better decisions thanks to the holistic view they provide of the system and their ability to simulate real and fictitious scenarios.They anticipate the response of the network to any circumstance affecting operations,whether it has occurred before or not,helping utilities to assess different scenarios.To do this,both the physical and dynamic aspects of the system must be represented,i.e.,the virtual representation of physical assets must be combined with the simulation of their behavior in the digital environment.The Digital Twin(DT)philosophy has been around since the 1960s when it was used by NASA to operate and maintain systems remotely.In 2003,the concept was finally consolidated by Dr.Michael Grieves,as a tool to optimize the management of a products entire life cycle in an industrial environment.Due to its potential,DT technology has recently been implemented in other areas such as infrastructure management,including the water industry.In fact,today we can find application cases in drinking water distribution systems where it has become easier to implement thanks to the large-scale deployment of sensors in recent years.Breakthroughs are also being made in this sense in irri-gation and in sanitation and sewage systems.A recent revolution in the water industryDigital twins need large amounts of data and information from the physical system to function.In other words,the development of use cases and practical applications depends on sensors and the information provided by the digital systems used,such as SCADAs,GIS and CMMS.Today,many companies have this information,so the next challenge for them is to concentrate,combine and standardize it into a single platform,which serves to feed the digital twin with real-world data.8 Water Technology Trends 2022:Digital TwinsWhy is there so much interest in digital twins?It is no coincidence that the current scenario of uncertainty has accelerated the adoption of this technology.Some of the most interesting benefits of digital twins,which have gained special relevance in recent years,are the following:ResilienceDigital twins improve the ability to adapt quickly and safely to any circumstance,whether it has happened before or not.This includes emergencies,health alerts and climate change-related events.Testing new ideas and changes virtually,before making a decision in the real system,minimizes risks,time and costs.Digital twins anticipate problems and identify the measures needed to prevent emergencies or minimize their consequences.In short,they ensure that,even in critical situations and in complex distribution systems,the water supply will remain available 24/7.EfficiencyDigital twins can help to optimize systems now and in the future from an operational and planning standpoint.Thanks to the holistic view they provide,decisions are made by considering their impact on the different processes occurring in the system.For example,energy costs can be reduced by establishing the best pumping schedules taking into account the hourly price of energy,whilst also keeping the systems hydraulic parameters under control.Energy consumption can also be reduced through more efficient asset operation and system planning,taking into account energy use associ-ated with the design of new infrastructure.Customer-centric managementTwenty-first-century citizens are demanding more infor-mation and better service,and they are also an essential part of the management of water distribution systems.Accordingly,digital twins need to engage citizens in order to provide them with information and to adapt water system management to cater for their needs.Thus,they can receive information on service disruptions in advance,whether due to planned interventions in the network or to an emergency.In addition,the operation of the system can be adapted depending on the needs of critical users,such as hospitals,to ensure supply in any possible scenario.Yet that is not all:the challenges we are currently facing,such as increased demand due to urban growth and the scarcity of water,require water utilities and citizens as end users to work together.For example,providing users with access to detailed information about their consumption will lead to better actions and awareness of responsible water use policies.SustainabilityThere is strong support for the new concept of sustain-able cities.Their objective is to adapt to climate change through planning,optimal infrastructure management and citizen participation.The technology used in urban water systems means that they can be operated safely and efficiently,with the aim of reducing water and energy consumption.They also promote two-way communication between utilities and citizens,who can now address new challenges and receive information on how their actions improve resource management.010302049 2022:the future is nowInterest in digital twins is growing,with new success stories being added every year.The most innovative international utilities have already included them in their strategic plans.They are no longer just a good idea for the future,and many utilities have already put specific actions down on paper.This ties in with the commitment to digital transformation.Once processes have been digitally transformed and infrastructures have been equipped with sensors,the next logical step is to extract value from all this data.Digital twins are one of the best tools to do this,as they deliver a holistic,cross-cutting vision of all the data they compile.Their commissioning must include the following components:a platform inte-grating all the information collected from assets and infrastructure,hydraulic models and advanced analytics,and a powerful,user-friendly dashboard system.Digital twins go way beyond simply simulating scenarios:one of their main features is the development of use cases,understood as the ability to solve problems and optimize day-to-day operations.Their successful deployment will require utilities to overcome a number of challenges in the coming years,which may act as a barrier to market uptake.For example,insufficient data quality and its location in isolated systems that are difficult to connect,or the intrinsic complexity of running a simulation model that must be kept permanently up-to-date and must operate in real time.In addition,the investment must be coupled with an innovative orga-nization and culture if it is to be successful.If there is something implicit in digital twins,it is a new way of working.At international level,more and more working groups are focusing on this technology.In short,in 2022 and beyond,digital twins will be one of the tools most commonly used to tackle the new challenges facing the water industry.Pilar ConejosDigital Twin Manager,IdricaWater Technology Trends 2022:Digital Twins10 Water Technology Trends 2022:Intelligent Asset ManagementTrend#3Intelligent asset management:the key to sustainabilityThe water industry has always had to deal with the challenge of proper asset management and has used different policies and practices to maintain and renew them over the years.In recent years,leading water utilities have been building intelligent asset management into their processes.As a result of the deployment of sensors on their infrastruc-ture and the implementation of other technologies such as micro-metering,GIS and SCADAs,utilities have an ever-increasing volume of information available on their assets.In this context,intelligent management integrates and organizes all this data in order to make better deci-sions.It advances on the conventional approach,which is characterized by corrective maintenance.Today,the water industry is adding intelligent manage-ment with the ultimate goal of maximizing efficiency.Although utilities have varying degrees of digital maturity,there is a definite trend towards moving in this direction.Based on experience,the application of technology paves the way for different use cases.For example,the history of work orders carried out on an asset can help assess the risk of failure and determine when it should be replaced.Thus,utilities can extend the lifetime of assets,anticipate replacements,adjust maintenance tasks and prevent outages.In addition,these systems help to pinpoint the most problematic materials,making real preventive maintenance possible and even guiding future investments.In addition,the management of pumps and other operating elements can optimize their energy consumption and provide better service.In short,more efficient resource management brings significant economic and environmental benefits by reducing costs and energy consumption.It also optimizes productivity,ensures service availability and reduces downtimes.11 Smart CMMS:taking maintenance to the next levelAutomated Computerized Maintenance Management Systems(CMMS)are the best example of the applica-tion of technology to management and maintenance when combined with intelligent management.They have already become an essential tool in the introduction of best practices and are valuable in addressing resource scarcity.In addition,they help utilities to obtain certifi-cations related to new environmental and organizational standards,such as ISO 55000.There are numerous benefits to implementing these systems,thus guaranteeing ROI.The investment implies improved safety for facility and equipment users.It also enhances product quality,reducing costs and giving the utility a competitive advantage.By increasing production capacity and decreasing the probability of failures in systems and facilities,service availability is boosted and,by extension,the satisfaction of internal and end users increases.In addition,utilities can optimize their administration processes by directly managing work orders using a mobile tool and drawing on the administrative support provided by the CMMS.This streamlines the management,organization and planning of maintenance work.In terms of costs,the reduction in the use of spare parts and the increased productivity of the facilities frees up working hours and cuts down idle times.Thus,cash flow improves,and profitability rises.Moreover,the optimization of preventive maintenance on facility elements usually reduces the energy used by mechanical equipment by 5%to 10%.Ensuring they are in good working order and monitoring their consumption enables proactive,automatic action to be taken in the Management inputsThere are a number of essential inputs required for sound asset management.First of all,operators must have a comprehensive list of the master data involved in the production process.This inventory includes the characteristics associated with each asset:economic(acquisition and replacement cost,cumulative depre-ciation,etc.),technical(inherent to each type of device,such as power)and operational(theoretical operating conditions,tolerances,estimated availability,curves,etc.).The relationships between assets,such as topological connections and asset hierarchies,must also be recorded.Transactional data are another key input.They contain different types of data,for example,that obtained from micro-metering and sensor technology,which are closely related to the Internet of Things(IoT).They also include information on incidents,such as their cost,downtimes and idle times,by their cause and origin.This group of elements also includes consumption estimates,generated by a mathematical model based on predicted or simulated conditions,together with a log of the work conducted on the assets in a CMMS system.This information is used by Artificial Intelligence(AI)and Machine Learning(ML)based algorithmic modules to suggest the most appropriate actions to be taken.The circle closes as the results of these actions become a new input for the system,feeding the AI and ML engines.CMMS are an essential tool in the introduction of best practices.Water Technology Trends 2022:Intelligent Asset ManagementRafael RubioHead of IT Operations,Idrica12 event of any deviations.This is particularly important in a context marked by global warming,since improvements in energy efficiency help to mitigate the impact of the activities that need to be carried out.A key part of CMMS is the automation of supply procure-ment in the warehouse.This enables the system to place the necessary orders to ensure facility maintenance,according to previously established minimum indicators.This reduces downtimes when replacing parts as stock is available.Finally,it is important to highlight how the mobility tool included in these systems increases maintenance manage-ment efficiency.The geolocation of fleets,together with the optimization of maintenance routes,leads to a reduction in travel time and distances,leading to a smaller carbon footprint and reducing related costs.In general,these tools increase productivity,reduce admin-istration time,and collect field data in digital format.They also serve to train new technical staff by providing them with different procedures,manuals,videos and photo-graphs of work orders that have already been completed.Roadmap for 2022Over the next few years,intelligent asset management is set to grow dramatically in the water industry.In a world that is increasingly concerned about environmental sustain-ability,the larger amounts of data available,provided by infrastructure sensors,will enable companies to progress towards more efficient resource management.One of the main challenges lies in overcoming the tech-nological complexity inherent to this project,as smaller utilities do not usually have sufficient technical and financial resources to tackle this issue.These utilities will need to rely on the support of external partners that combine technology and expertise,if they are to succeed.In addition,concerns about cybersecurity will lead the industry to demand appropriate security mechanisms to protect facilities and production processes from unau-thorized access.Globally,we expect an upsurge in projects related to productivity and optimal resource consumption in 2022.Intelligent asset management will be mainstreamed by the most innovative utilities,given the potential it has to boost efficiency and guarantee service availability.Water Technology Trends 2022:Intelligent Asset Management13 Water Technology Trends 2022:GISTrend#4Geographic Information Systems(GIS):data at the service of efficiencyIn recent years,Geographic Information Systems(GIS)have become an essential tool for water utilities.These systems enable companies to integrate and represent an ever-increasing flow of information,driven by digital transformation and advances in infrastructure sensors,although this is not an end in itself.The ultimate goal is to manage water more efficiently and effectively.In practice,any data with geospatial content can be represented in a GIS,including satellite and drone images,sensor information and vector data.This enables us to bring together the value of the location and its informa-tion in a single tool,where it can be centrally managed.Visualization is dynamic and collaborative,since maps can be shared and distributed on different platforms.GIS help to understand patterns and trends,and to analyze data and establish relationships between them.They also help to monitor changes that water utilities make to their infrastructure.The data insights they provide help managers solve problems on the road to greater sustainability.Any geolocated data multiplies its original value by three,since visualizing alphanumerical data in a location provides the user with crucial information to guide real actions.In short,thanks to these systems,companies can extract value from their data to improve their business processes.From data to efficient water managementGood geospatial orientation in data interpretation,performed by a GIS specialist,makes for better decisions in the water industry.For example,proper understanding of a terrains orography makes it easier to choose the best location for pipelines and the connections between them.In terms of the creation of typologies,GIS help with the layout of different hydraulic elements(valves,nodes,filters,plugs.)so that they comply with topological rules.Although they can be adapted to each companys needs,there are a series of minimum requirements that must be taken into account,such as the calculation of the volume of water to be carried by each pipe according to its diameter and nodes.This is just one example of how GIS help to manage water.The figure of the GIS specialist is gaining in importance in water utilities,thanks to their analyses,interpretation and spatial management of data.But once the data is avail-able,what can utilities do with it to be more efficient?This is the question we must answer in every scenario.14 Water Technology Trends 2022:GISInnovative use cases in the water industryThe popularity of GIS in the water industry ties in with the capabilities it delivers across the entire water cycle.Some of the most innovative use cases we are already seeing in the industry include:Drinking water Wastewater Irrigation GIS help utilities minimize water service interruptions following inter-ventions in the distribution network.The information they provide about the branches and pipes affected by repair work or a leak determines which assets need to be shut down to minimize any negative effects.They also identify and alert users when their water supply has to be cut off.These systems also collect vital infor-mation to prevent network failures,such as the material the pipes are made of or the date they were installed.By combining data with the geographic element in the geospatial analysis of the pipes,it is possible to intelligently guide inspections and even detect branches in use that should no longer be operational.The geolocation of field work is another important use case in this area,from the mapping and tracking of routes to generating information about the task performed together with its location.GIS are the perfect partner for waste-water-based epidemiology,which has come to the fore during the coronavirus crisis.The analysis of the presence of certain viruses in the population,combined with geolocated information from pipes,connections and sewerage branches,enables us to draw maps of contagion in cities,and provides us with information about the areas with the highest virus incidence,together with other data such as population density and age,which can assist the health authorities in the measures they need to take.Another use case in which these systems are useful is flood prevention in cities.Thanks to remote sensors,possible blockages and poor sewer drainage capacity can be pinpointed.This enables municipalities to take action to prevent flooding after a heavy rainfall event.In the current context of environmental concerns,GIS are essential for efficient irrigation.When combined with tech-nologies such as sensors(Internet of Things),remote sensing and satellite imagery,irrigation associations can visualize the volume of water at each location on their plots in real time.If it is higher than desired,the farmer receives an alarm to adjust the irriga-tion flow,or to check whether there is a leak in a drip irrigation element.The same thing happens if the flow rate is lower than expected,which could signal a blocked pipe.In addition,the geolocated inventory of pipes,with information about what they are made of and the date they were installed,is key to preventing bursts and assessing damage.Thanks to GIS,irrigation associations can prioritize which assets need to be replaced before they begin to fail.Other preventive areas include soil preparation if soil moisture remains too high due to the presence of fertil-izers or nitrates.Irrigation can also be suspended if the water level is too high.15 Water utilities are committed to implementing GIS and linking them to their corporate systems and tools to solve key aspects of day-to-day management.It is no longer just a matter of geolocating infrastructure elements and obtaining information about them.Instead,advanced use cases are being developed,such as real-time monitoring of field work through operator-managed mobile applications.Integration with GPS systems and mathematical models is already a reality in leading utilities.In addition,work is being done to achieve optimum water quality by adjusting pipeline parameters and predictive models.3D visualization of data will be a key area over the next few years.It will enable users,for example,to see which floor of a building the water pressure reaches without having to use a pump,or to obtain a 3D map showing the depth of the different hydraulic elements that make up the drinking water and wastewater systems,such as pipes,manhole covers and valves.Thus,any work can take into account their position to prevent duplications,and to focus interventions on the right areas.This is a very important step forward in usability.Other GIS trends include cloud devel-opments,autonomous vehicle-driving,Building Information Modeling(BIM)and the Internet of Things(IoT).In irrigation,advances will continue to be made in prevention,water volume adjustments and early crop pest detec-tion,always based on a collaborative approach and on cultural change in companies.On the other hand,advances in 5G-NR will transform the way data is visualized and interpreted,making it imme-diately available.This will facilitate the development of algorithms and functional and statistical calcula-tions.By working on instantaneous data,companies and users will be able to receive real-time alarms for events in hydraulic elements,such as meters.We will be able to link an image or a button on a map so that the element can be remotely managed by interacting with it.This low-latency interconnection will enable utilities to continue to drive water efficiency.Companies are already moving towards greater use of GIS,which will become easier to interpret as more informa-tion becomes available.The quest for greater customer usability will shape the roadmap for new GIS use cases in industry.We will be able to use water more intelligently and make more accurate predictions about the future,if we know precisely what is happening in the infrastructure.2022:committed to the geolocation of all processesGeolocated data multiplies its original value by three.Sergio Aznar GIS Department Director,IdricaWater Technology Trends 2022:GIS16 Water Technology Trends 2022:AITrend#5Artificial Intelligence:building learning into processesMore and more water utilities are adding Artificial Intelligence(AI)to their processes.This science,which aims to replicate human cognitive functions through machines,provides more sustainable management of water resources.Within AI,Machine Learning(ML)has huge potential in the industry.This discipline focuses on the development of techniques and algorithms that help a machine to learn,that is,to acquire increasingly accurate knowledge from an external data source.Other branches of AI,which are also being applied to water,are voice and vision recognition systems,expert systems,Natural Language Processing(NLP)and robots.One of the main advantages of ML is that it automates processes that are costly to manage manually.This is done by means of agnostic systems,i.e.,which are data-driven and not based on subjective analyses.This improves the accuracy of the results,which are calculated at high computational speed thanks to the infrastructure that underpins them.Thus,utilities can make better decisions because they have real-time information about what is happening in the infrastructures.Four types of machine learningThe water industry handles vast amounts of data,which makes it essential to extract its value.Utilities have access to different fields of machine learning to transform data into useful information.SupervisedIn this type of learning,prior knowledge of the problem is used as the valid hypothesis to be able to characterize new cases in the future.For example,if we have data on customers who have had leaks in the past,and information about their characteristics,we can build a model that cate-gorizes new customers to anticipate further water losses.UnsupervisedWhen there is no previous knowledge about the issue to be solved,but there is information about its characteris-tics,unsupervised learning is used.Continuing on from the previous example,if we have a database of customers,we can study which ones have abnormal consumption in order to identify possible leaks.Semi-supervisedIn this case,we have data that gives us prior knowledge of the problem and other data that does not.Both sets enrich the information needed to solve the problem.Similarly,if we have data from clients who have had leaks,others who have not,and some whose situation is unknown,the combi-nation of all these sources helps us to detect new cases more accurately.To do this,a number of assumptions are made about data distributions.By reinforcement Unlike the other fields of machine learning,this one differs in that it is rule-based and deals with action/reaction type information to be modeled,the objective of which is to maximize the reward function.Reinforcement learning is used,for example,to perform simulations in a development environment,generating software capable of preventing the collision of autonomous vehicles in real-life situations.17 Use cases applied to waterRegardless of the type of learning applied,AI provides innovative answers to some of the major challenges facing utilities.For example,the detection of fraud through machine-learning-based models.Although these systems can be applied in any business environment,they are particularly relevant in our industry because they manage a resource that is essential for life.The same applies to early leak detection,as this has a major impact on water savings.In general,AI improves the efficiency and quality of our water supply.Algorithms can estimate and anticipate consumption and predict water quality.They are also instrumental in improving irrigation systems and optimizing energy use in pumping systems.In wastewater,this science helps to detect overflows in sewage networks,and can even prevent them by imple-menting preventive cleaning in trouble spots.Another innovative use case is the detection of pathogens in sewage systems,which helps to monitor the evolution of epidemics or pandemics,as is currently the case.Other applications,such as automatic report genera-tion and social media sentiment analysis,are useful to ascertain not only the status of processes,but also citizen satisfaction with the water services provided.As part of this commitment to greater transparency and citizen orientation,chatbots have recently been included in various utilities customer service departments.These automatic response chatbots,based on NLP,help to solve consumers problems more quickly.Automatic reading of water meters through vision recognition systems is another of the advances we are already seeing in water services.2022:machines driving sustainability Sustainability is driving the evolution of AI products in the water industry.Continuous improvements in technology will lead to increasingly optimized energy supplies and consumption,more accurate leak detection processes,and lower maintenance costs.On the back of these advances,total CO2 emissions will also fall,leading to smarter manage-ment of the entire water cycle.We also expect to see an increase in the use of edge devices in 2022.While the on-premise server computing paradigm has already been replaced by cloud technologies,improvements in edge device processors will lead to direct computing on edge devices without the need for a server.Users will have AI models implemented in an application on their device,with real-time access to their behavioral data and various forecasts.In the water industry,these advances will yield different practical applications,such as autonomous driving of vehicles and robots.For this to take place,some related challenges need to be solved.First,scalability,as it is easier to pool data in a single storage center,such as a physical server or in the cloud,than in all the edge devices.In addition,an infra-structure is needed to manage failures and configuration errors.The second much more critical issue is security.With edge devices,the entire process is located in a place that is not readily accessible to the organization,so more investment is needed to make the system secure.Over the next few years,utilities will be adding different AI use cases to their operations.New lines of research that could emerge include systems for detecting long-term weather patterns.These systems could be designed to improve the efficiency of water resource management in the event of droughts or floods,in order to mitigate the effects of climate change.The water industry,as a provider of an essential service,could spearhead these developments.In short,more sustainable management of the entire water cycle requires the introduction of AI in the utilities of the future.Manuel GarcaData Scientist,IdricaWater Technology Trends 2022:AI18 Water Technology Trends 2022:5GTrend#65G:turning the future into reality 5G is not just another new generation of communication.It is a veritable revolution in how mobile networks are designed and used.A few years ago,4G networks overcame the connectivity and speed issues encountered in previous generations(2G,3G),and accelerated person-to-person communication.5G technology is not just another small step along this road;instead it opens up radically new business opportunities that were not previously possible.Until now,the same physical infrastructure has had to serve a wide variety of use cases,although these have very different requirements.However,the ultra-flexibility of 5G networks means that they can be sliced or configured in a variety of ways to cater to the needs of telecommunications infrastruc-ture users.We can compare this idea to highway infrastructures,which are characterized by their inflexibility.When we want to adapt them to external circumstances(an ambulance that needs to get through,closing or opening lanes depending on the volume of traffic,etc.),an external manager modifies them in an attempt to cater for these new uses,with varying degrees of success.Conversely,if we apply the 5G concept,we would have smart infrastruc-tures monitoring what is going on and taking swift action when needed.For example,they could open up a new lane,transfer lanes from one direction to another,light up the road or change to a more rugged road surface in the event of rain.Similarly,5G will be able to create virtual corporate networks within the network itself,or respond to use cases with different bandwidth requirements,response speed and number of connected devices,among other functionalities.This is how 5G can help us to build different use cases on its networks.The intelligence of the network makes it suitable for services that require high bandwidth and good coverage(enhanced Mobile Broadband-eMBB),low latency and very high reliability(Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications-URLLC),as well as for securely connecting a large number of devices(Massive Internet of Things-MIoT).19 5G-NRs evolution across the worldThe worlds major powers,such as China,the United States and Korea,have been vying to lead the development of 5G since 2019,and are adopting different strategies to push forward with the implementation of the most disruptive use cases.So far,commercial deployments have been based on the Non-Standalone version,which is more limited in terms of its benefits.However,there is huge interest in moving forward,so during 2022 we expect to see the first Stand-alone deployments.In addition,some countries are already rolling out private networks in industrial environments and reserving part of the spectrum for their businesses,and we are even starting to see the first smart factory projects in Europe,with processes managed through 5G.After completing the pilot testing phase and current partial deployments,the forecast is that in a couple of years time,5G coverage will reach similar levels to those of current 4G networks.By that time,we will have moved to the commercial model,and it is reasonable to expect the water industry to take part in this change.Some hurdles must first be overcome for this to happen,such as the limited availability of coverage and radio spectrum for industry,the global shortage of chips and the high cost of IoT devices.Full 5G coverage is expected to be reached by 2025,thanks in part to the support of governments,who see this technology as an economic driver capable of creating new jobs.Innovative use cases in the water industryThe innovation brought by 5G comprises both the tech-nologys capabilities and the new use cases that it will enable.Although its full potential is still being explored in several pilot projects,there are a number of innovations that are worth taking into account.One of the most important is the connection of millions of devices per km2,thanks to MIoT(Massive Internet of Things).5G will ensure the coexistence of smart meters with the digital transformation of other devices,which is key in a world where there will soon be 26 billion devices connected.For sensors to be compatible with economic and environ-mental sustainability,their useful life must be extended.5G can reduce battery consumption by up to 50%compared to current levels.This technology also ensures that the digital transformation of infrastructures is secure,thanks to improved security protocols to protect against cyber-attacks and the ubiquity of the network,i.e.unin-terrupted coverage.In addition,5Gs network slicing is essential for the management of critical infrastructures.The main change is that the network will adapt to the needs of businesses,and not the other way around,thanks to the definition of virtually independent networks with guaranteed quality of service.These slices will enable remote control in real time.The autonomous operation of plants,the driving of robots and the piloting of drones to inspect and monitor critical infrastructures,are just some of the examples that will become commonplace.Ultra-low latency will enable machines to inspect dangerous or difficult-to-access areas,such as sewers,and improve predictive asset maintenance.In addition,the farming industry is exploring the use of autonomous tractors for sowing and harvesting.Another of the main practical applications also involves avoiding unnecessary travel and facilitating access to difficult spaces:remote assistance will speed up access to specialized knowledge to enhance incident resolution in the water industry.5G is set to liberate and democratize data.Water Technology Trends 2022:5G20 Chema NebotBusiness Development Director,Idrica2022:the water management revolutionGlobal water utilities are transforming their processes as a means to achieve greater water and energy efficiency.This journey includes leveraging the value of the data obtained from sensors,and doing so securely,in order to make better decisions.Thanks to its low latency and its ability to connect millions of devices,5G will become a key ally for these utilities.Moreover,against a background of increased transparency,this technology will help to liberate and democra-tize data,making it more accessible.The 21st century citizen not only wants to know how much water they have consumed,but also how much is left in the reservoirs,or the quality of the water they are using,in real time.5G can provide the answer to these questions.These citizen demands,and others related to environmental sustainability,are also shared by government and are on the roadmap of water utilities.Consequently,5G,as an enabler of innovative use cases,will receive firm support for its deployment and adoption.In the coming year,the water industry has a unique opportunity to further transform the management of its most precious resource through the advantages brought by 5G.The range of available technologies will benefit all water utilities,regardless of their degree of digital transformation.Water Technology Trends 2022:5G21 Water Technology Trends 2022:ConclusionsConclusionsToday,2.2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water services(WHO/UNICEF 2019),and almost twice as many lack adequate sanitation(Id.2020).Against this background,the industrys continued commitment to ensuring the right to water and sanitation for all,as recognized by the United Nations General Assembly in July 2010,is essential.The technologies featured in this whitepaper are some of the must-have tools for ensuring the availability and sustainable management of water,in line with Sustainable Development Goal(SDG)6.The digital transformation of processes is no longer an option;it is simply the road we must follow to offer the quality service demanded by 21st century citizens.Climate change and water scarcity,which already affects 40%of the population,are challenges that need to be addressed as soon as possible.In 2022,and over the next few years,utilities will continue to optimize their management thanks to digital twins,the deployment of AMI(Advanced Metering Infrastructure),Geographic Information Systems,intelligent asset management,Artificial Intelligence and the new generation of 5G-NR communications,among other developments.These trends pave the way for use cases that drive process automation,remote and real-time control,the anticipation of events and improved field work.They also contribute to customer-centric management by delivering value-added services.In short,they are geared towards achieving more sustainable,more secure management,based on better decision-making.The future depends on digital transformation.However,this should not be conceived as an end in itself,but as a way of extracting value from data and converting infor-mation into business intelligence.This is the only way we will be able to tackle the challenges of the coming decades.Idrica is a leading company specializing in water cycle management.Its unique value proposition is based on the efficiency and quality of its services and on the GoAigua technological solution used for the digital transformation of the industry.Contact us for an analysis of the challenges facing your

ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMINGStep-by-Step Guide for B2B&B2C Companies With contributions by:Intro ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES2 As B2B and B2C consumers expand their purchasing journeys across online and ofgline channels,companies are forced to re-evaluate their eCommerce platform.Can it keep up with(and simplify)the complexities needed to meet heightening demands?For example,can your current cart and checkout support subscription purchases in the same transaction as a non-subscription purchase?Or can you manage segment-specific or account-level pricing and promotion rules without IT involvement?76%of retailers plan to increase their spending on eCommerce technology and services in 2023,according to a survey of retailers by Digital Commerce 360.Adding new capabilities is especially top-of-mind for many B2B sellers,with 61%of B2B retailers in a January 2022 Digital Commerce 360 survey indicating that eCommerce platforms and applications were among their top priorities for the year.Regardless of your focus or retail niche,theres a lot to consider when migrating to a new eCommerce platformfrom determining the right time to make the move to creating a game plan for vetting vendors.Our aim with this guide is to help you navigate the process.You can use this eCommerce replatforming guide to help you plan and execute a successful migration.To this end,the following topics are covered:When is the right time to replatform?What to consider before vetting new platformsHow to determine the right type of platformCalculating the total cost of ownership8 steps to replatformingChecklist for replatformingWell start by covering the signs and symptoms that signal its time to look for a new eCommerce platform.YOUR CURRENT SYSTEM IS NO LONGER UP TO THE JOB.eCommerce growing pains are real.With success,comes the need for scalability.If your platform can no longer handle increased trafgic or orders,it might be time to start looking for a new solution that can support your businesss continued growth.“A newer modernized platform brings cloud native-based architecture and advanced capabilities such as auto-scaling or self-healing for better consumer experience,”said Saravanan Kannan,North America Commerce Leader at Cognizant.YOU WANT TO ENTER NEW MARKETS.Global and regional markets often have difgerent eCommerce needs and requirements.Expanding into these markets requires an eCommerce platform that is configurable and flexible enough to accommodate difgerent needs like language,currency,and shipping.“Multi-tenant and globalized reusable template of the storefront assets for regional rollouts with minimal configurations is one of the major criteria for platform modernization,”said Kannan.YOU NEED TO INTEGRATE NEW COMMERCE TOOLS OR ERP SYSTEMS.As you add new commerce applications and tools,or connect to new ERP systems,the out-of-the-box capabilities of your current eCommerce platform might not be enough.If you find yourself having to do a lot of custom coding to make everything work together,its probably time for an upgrade.“The next-generation platforms provide a holistic end-to-end marketplace ecosystem for connectors,adaptors,and other plug&play integration services with seamless data exchange,”said Kannan.When is the right time to replatform?While every retail business is difgerent and each industry has its own unique goals and challenges,there are several key indicators that signal its time to embark on an eCommerce replatforming project.These include:231ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES3 YOUR ORDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM NEEDS AN OVERHAUL.Order management and fulfillment can be challenging for businesses with complex product ofgerings,several distribution centers,and multiple sales channels.If youre relying on manual processes or band-aid solutions to get by,moving to an eCommerce platform that can support robust order management capabilities is a logical next step.“The current challenges on inventory visibility across all sales channels and the complexity in the delivery fulfillment capabilities post-order capture disrupt the customer experience.The next-generation order management platform solves most of these underlying order orchestration problem statements.Unified commerce experience is a very key difgerentiator for order capture and post-buying consumer experience,”said Kannan.YOU WANT TO INITIATE(OR IMPROVE)AN OMNICHANNEL COMMERCE EXPERIENCE.Omnichannel shopping is the rule in the U.S.,not the exception.According to Harvard Business Review,73%of consumers prefer shopping across multiple channels.Delivering consistent and personalized experiences builds trust,fosters connections with customers,and inspires loyalty.If your current eCommerce platform cant deliver on this omnichannel promise,its likely time for an upgrade.“The transformation strategy should be unified for consistent experience and business expansion,”said Kannan.YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU DONT KNOW.It can be difgicult(if not impossible)to anticipate what functionality youll need in six months,much less a year or more.But with the right system,you dont have to guess.An eCommerce replatforming initiative that employs a modular,scalable system helps you adapt to changes in omnichannel shopping behaviors,expectations,and technology.If your current platform lacks the flexibility to grow with your business,or if youre not confident in its ability to scale quickly,it might be time to consider a new solution.564“The current challenges on inventory visibility across all sales channels and the complexity in the delivery fulfillment capabilities post-order capture disrupt the customer experience.”SARAVANAN KANNAN North America Commerce Leader at CognizantAn eCommerce replatforming initiative that employs a modular,scalable system helps you adapt to changes in omnichannel shopping behaviors,expectations,and technology.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES4 YOU WANT INCREASED AUTONOMY FOR ECOMMERCE OPERATIONS.If youre using too many resources to maintain your eCommerce operations,it may be time to re-align the technical and business teams.By investing in technology that prioritizes business functions and simplifies tech stack management,you can gain significant operational efgiciencies.“Business teams want more independence and flexibility in publishing marketing content,merchandising decisions,and real-time promotional ofgers without significant IT dependencies.IT teams want more automation in product development,quality,and production rollout with minimal human touch.A platform that caters to provide such capabilities brings in more operational and cost efgiciencies to the organization,”said Kannan.Here are a few examples:1.Infra-as-a-code for cloud environment management2.Automated test scripts for Regression,SIT,E2E and Performance Test3.Fully automated DevOps CICD pipeline4.Site Reliability Engineering supported by Chaos Test EngineeringThe above list covers many of the most common reasons businesses replatform their eCommerce systems.But before getting into specifics,you should ask yourself if there are things that your current platform cant do.Does this lack of functionality put you at a competitive disadvantage?Is the current system able to handle your order volume,meet your business needs,and expand with you?These questions will help clarify if its time for a change.773%of consumers prefer shopping across multiple channelsECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES5 Do you need to replatform the entire eCommerce platform or only certain modules?Replatforming can often be a daunting word to B2B and B2C companies.But composable commerce solutions give you the ability to add or upgrade your eCommerce capabilities without the heavy lift of a traditional replatform.Composable commerce takes a modular approach to commerce by using packaged business capabilities(PBCs)to group microservices together.PBCs,a pillar of composable commerce,form independent components of the larger commerce system.In a composable system,individual capabilities,such as search or cart&checkout,can be added without afgecting the rest of the system.This gives you the agility to respond to customer needs in real-time and create exceptional digital experiences that drive conversions and loyalty.By building your platform from the capabilities that you need,you save on the total cost of ownership(TCO).Are you prioritizing business functions and tech stack management simplicity?As technology leaders started taking the responsibility of evaluating,purchasing and managing technology purchased by the company,the pendulum swing from monoliths to microservices.But many retailers found that these MACH(Microservices based,API-first,Cloud-native SaaS,and Headless)systems were too technical to implement and manage.They often required IT teams to build custom UIs and integrations when they should have been focusing on building capabilities and features that make the retailer unique.By re-aligning your business and technology teams,you can ensure youre investing in technology that prioritizes the business user and simplifies tech stack management.Look for solutions with the depth of out-of-the-box commerce capabilities(i.e.,integrations,APIs,workflows,data unification,and user interfaces)needed to meet your business complexities freeing the IT team to build functions and features that drive revenue.What to consider before vetting new platformsReplacing an eCommerce platform will impact every aspect of your retail business.To plan for the project and ensure you consider its impact to the organization,you should develop a roadmap by answering the following questions.Composable commerce solutions give you the ability to add or upgrade your eCommerce capabilities without the heavy lift of a traditional replatform.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES6 What business use cases do you need the new platform to fulfill?Creating use cases helps visualize and clarify your business needs.What do you need the new platform to do for your business?Do you need it to improve customer experience,create efgiciencies in your operations,or enable growth?Use cases are an important tool when screening vendors since they provide tangibility around how a given platform can or cant meet your requirements.Who needs to be involved in the decision-making process?Your replatforming project will likely require some organizational changes.For example,you might need to create a new position to manage the platform or restructure your marketing team to take advantage of the new features.Team buy-in and communication are critical when migrating to a new system.Create a clear outline or list of the stakeholders tasked with informing,educating,and involving their teams in the decision-making process.Is your budget realistic?We get into the specifics of calculating the total cost of ownership(TCO),below.But well before you factor in how to calculate this crucial metric,its important to take a realistic look at your budget for replatforming since this informs what you can do now versus later.Some costs inherent in eCommerce replatforming include:Monthly or annual platform subscription fee One-time migration fee Stafging and training costs(hiring new stafg,re-training existing stafg,etc.)Ongoing maintenance and support costs Hosting and managed services fees Operational cost of two eCommerce platforms until the legacy application is sunsetECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES7 Who will be responsible for managing the new platform?Successful replatforming programs involve all departments,including executive leadership.Failing to get executive buy-in before replatforming is a huge pitfall and can derail the project.Its helpful to have one person spearhead the initiativea replatforming“champion”who informs executive leadership while working with a transition team that represents difgerent departments within your organization.What requirements and capabilities do you need now and in the future?Evaluating your current eCommerce platform will give you a good idea of the capabilities you need in a new platform.Its also important to plan for your short-and long-term needs(e.g.,6 months,1 year,2 years,etc.).Again,theres no way to anticipate exactly how the market,your customers,and your business will change over time,but finding a platform that can scale and adapt is the best way to weather changes.Whats the timeline for the project?Be realistic about the timeline for your replatforming project.Depending on your approach,migrating to a new platform can take months to complete.Make sure you have a clear understanding of the timeline and how it will impact your customers,stakeholders,and employees.Whats the production cutover strategy for the project?“Plan and budget for production cutover strategy well in advance by aligning stakeholders and preparing for key activities leading up to launch day,such as environment readiness,data migration,organizational change management,training,and platform transition,”said Kannan.“The are difgerent types of cutover approaches,such as big bang or a phased rollout by feature and capabilities which could lead to incurring operational costs and maintenance of two difgerent platforms until the legacy is sunset.Its important to consider each approach and how they will afgect business operations and the end consumer experience.”Answering the above questions helps prepare you for the next stepchoosing the type of platform you need and the right vendor for your project.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES8 How to determine the right type of platform There are several difgerent platform approaches and types you should know about as you compare vendors.Heres a quick overview of the most common eCommerce platforms:SaaS vs.On-PremisesSoftware as a Service(SaaS)is a subscription-based licensing model where software is developed and hosted by an external vendor.Think of it as a rental approach.Your subscription price pays for access to the software and everything needed to operate it including updates,upgrades,security,and maintenance.An on-premises platform is managed internally by your company.Its a one-time purchase with an external hosting fee and an annual maintenance contract with the vendor.With an on-premises system,you own the software(think of it as a house you own outright),but youre responsible for its upkeep including hosting,security,and upgrades.Monolith vs.Headless vs.Composable A monolithic eCommerce platform is one thats tightly coupled the backend system(order management,inventory,etc.)is integrated with the frontend system(checkout process,product pages,customer accounts).Once the standard when it came to eCommerce systems,many companies are moving away from monolithic systems because of their lack of flexibility.A headless eCommerce platform separates the backend functionality of your commerce system from the frontend presentation layer.Headless systems are cloud-based and use API calls to deliver services and content to send instructions between the two ends.Headless commerce allows developers to focus on building out backend functionality without worrying about how it will impact other parts of the platform.Headless commerce is more flexible than monolithic platforms,but keep in mind,you can have a monolithic frontend and a separate monolithic backend(e.g.,“fake headless”).A composable eCommerce platform is like a headless system in that its cloud-based with backend and frontend systems that communicate with each other via APIs.The difgerence is that composable commerce uses packaged business capabilities(PBCs)to group microservices together.In a composable system,each function is separate and contained(e.g.,the order management system vs.the product information system).This modularity provides for more flexibility and easier upgrades.Its important to note that not all composable commerce solutions are equal.Some solutions require heavy IT involvement to build integrations and workflows between systems,which can increase costs and needed resources.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES9 Is the platform scalable and flexible?One of the biggest motivations to replatform is the need for an eCommerce system that can scale,extend,and pivot as your business strategy evolves.This is the only way to provide engaging omnichannel experiences that are frictionless and consistent across every touchpoint.As you compare vendors and platform types,consider the following:OUT-OF-THE-BOX CONNECTORS Most eCommerce platforms come with a library of out-of-the-box connectors that allow you to integrate popular applications and data sources.APIs APIs allow developers to create custom integrations by writing code that calls the platforms API.Some eCommerce platforms come with pre-built APIs to minimize the need for development resources.Extensibility Extensibility allows you to update the website or platform without afgecting the code base.You can make changes to the customer experience,workflows,or platform UI without a complete overhaul or fear of shutting down the site.B2C shoppers and B2B buyers alike are using multiple channels to make informed and convenient purchases requiring retailers to adopt complexities and commerce capabilities to meet heightening demands for omnichannel journeys.With a flexible and scalable platform,you can take advantage of its out-of-the-box functionalities for faster time to market,while extending it overtime based on your unique business and customer needs.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES10 According to Cognizant,there are eight important drivers to consider for an eCommerce platform selection process:Multisite,Multi-tenet(Single platform for multiple sites for unified customer view and ease of operations)Speed to Market(Faster market penetration and ROI realization)Content-Driven(Rich media content for more enhanced customer experience)Ease of Integrations(Simpler hooks to customer data platform(CDP),CMS,OMS,etc.)Headless or Composable Commerce ArchitectureNextGen Commerce Capabilities(i.e.,Voice-driven commerce,Augmented Reality,Virtual Reality)Advanced Analytics(AI/ML based,real-time analytics)Top Drivers for the platform selectionECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES11 Implementation CostsImplementation costs are anything involved with the initial launch of your eCommerce platform including:Professional services fees for things like project management,business analysis,and software development License fees for the eCommerce platform itself as well as any third-party applications or integrations you need Hardware costs like servers,storage,networking,and security Data migration costs Stafging costs for in-house resources dedicated to the project External consulting costs if you need to bring in outside expertise to help with the migrationMaintenance CostsMaintenance costs are the on-going fees associated with keeping your eCommerce platform running including:License fees for the eCommerce platform and any third-party applications or integrations Stafging costs for in-house resources dedicated to maintaining the platform Hosting fees Backup and disaster recovery costs Monitoring and security costs Infrastructure costs like servers,storage,networking,and securityCalculating the total cost of ownership of the platform The total cost of ownership(TCO)of an eCommerce platform includes all expenses,costs,and investments associated with your solutionincluding any downtime incurred from replatforming.Its helpful to calculate your expected TCO before you start the replatforming process so you can avoid surprises and realistically compare vendors.TCO can be broken down into three categories:implementation,maintenance,and optimization.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES12 Optimization CostsOptimization costs are the investments you make to continually improve your eCommerce platform over time including:Professional services fees for things like design,development,and user experience testing Website and app enhancements Content creation and management Search engine optimization(SEO)Analytics and reportingAs you can see,there are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the TCO of an eCommerce platform.Be sure to factor in all one-time and recurring costs so you can make an accurate comparison of vendors.Revenue Share from Digital Platform“One of the major criteria on the platform selection decision making process is how much revenue share does the brand specific digital platform bring into the equation.Based on the online revenue,you can pick and choose between the difgerent eCommerce platform vendors targeting the specific brand potential and requirements,”said Kannan.Brand digital online revenue categorization in 5 difgerent levels based on the market share as described below:1.SMB(500M )ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES13 8 Steps to eCommerce ReplatformingWeve already touched on some of the things you should consider when initiating an eCommerce replatforming project,but what does the process actually look like?Below,we provide 8 steps to clarify this process and help you get started.Create a data migration plan Moving and/or integrating data from one environment to another is complex and not without risk.Any replatforming initiative,therefore,requires a data migration plan.Your plan should include a timeline,benchmarks and goals,and a list of data sources and data points that need to be migrated.Your plan should also account for data growth,data retention,and the overall impact your migration will have on your search rankings.“Depending on the production cutover strategy the data synchronization process has to be finalized between two ways vs.one way between the Legacy and Modernized platforms until the transition is completed,”added Kannan.Outline requirements and business use cases Once your goals are outlined and you have support from leadership,you can create a more detailed replatforming plan that includes your business requirements and needs.Business use cases are an invaluable tool at this stage of planning.They force you to clarify specific scenarios that demonstrate how your replatformed eCommerce solution will be used.Use cases can be presented to potential vendors during the Request for Proposal(RFP)process to ensure they understand your needs and expectations.Define Your GoalsBefore you can start replatforming,you should fully outline your goalsincluding your needs and requirementsfor the initiative.Defining your goals does two things.It helps you create a clear plan of action/next steps and it enables you to better identify vendors that are a good match.Factors to consider include ease of use,functionality,security,support,timing,and pricing.Get buy-in from executive leadership Replatforming is a big undertaking that needs support from your organizations leadership.According to McKinsey,companies that succeed with cloud migration initiatives are over 30%more likely to have CEO buy in versus those that dont.This is why its critical for your organizations executivesincluding the CEOare fully on board.1324According to McKinsey,companies that succeed with cloud migration initiatives are over 30%more likely to have CEO buy in versus those that dont.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES14 Create a detailed RFP Once all the pieces are in place,you can begin vendor selection by issuing a Request for Proposal(RFP).An RFP is a formal document that outlines your business needs and requirements.This is where you can include your business use cases,data migration plan,and other criteria connected to your replatforming project.Be specific.A comprehensive RFP helps vendors provide tailored responses and demos while enabling you to make apples-to-apples comparisons.Establish a replatforming roadmap With your migration plan and team in place,youre ready to develop your replatforming roadmap.This document should include both short-and long-term milestones,identify risks and dependencies,and assign ownership to specific team members.This is a living document that will evolve as your project progresses.The roadmap provides a valuable framework for keeping everyone on track and ensuring your replatforming initiative is successful.Identify skill gaps that need to be filledThe success of your replatforming initiative will largely depend on having the right team in place to manage and support it.As you put together your project plan,map out the resources you have on hand and whats needed.This helps identify any skill gaps within your organization that youll need to fill with additional training,new hires,or outside consultants.Identifying skill gaps also helps with vendor selection,since some vendors provide consulting and resources to customers who need additional support.Vet the platforms partner communityA platforms partner community is made up of developers,designers,and other solution providers who build on or integrate with the platform.This community can provide a wealth of support and expertisebut only if its robust and active.When considering potential eCommerce platforms,look at the depth of its partner ecosystem.Check to see if the provider invests in integration points,testing,and documentation for partners.Make sure you understand how the platform manages third-party vendors and what kind of access youll have to them.5768A comprehensive RFP helps vendors provide tailored responses and demos while enabling you to make apples-to-apples comparisons.ECOMMERCE REPLATFORMING:STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR B2B&B2C COMPANIES15 When is the right time to replatform?*My current system doesnt meet my needs We want to enter a new

objective and balanced account of migration globally has never been more important.Not only is the political salience of migration high,and frequently fevered,but the capacity for rapidly disseminating disinformation to influence the public discourse has expanded.Twenty years ago,IOM published the first World Migration Report with the stated aim of providing an authoritative account of migration trends and issues worldwide.With the initial report published in 2000,the series has quickly become established as IOMs flagship publication.The early World Migration Reports were framed around specific themes.They provided deep dives into topics such as labour mobility,migrant well-being and communication on migration.But,with time,there was a sense that the broader landscape and complexity of migration issues was being neglected.Times have changed,dramatically so.Migration is now a top-tier political issue interconnected to human rights,development,and geopolitics at national,regional and international levels.Accordingly,IOM has enhanced the flagship series to ensure that the World Migration Report is,in fact,a world migration report.We have revamped the series to offer a more strategic contribution to the public debate.We have strengthened our collaborative partnerships with scholars and applied researchers in order to benefit from their diverse expertise and knowledge.We have made content and structural changes to increase the World Migration Reports utility to the evidence base on migration globally,in line with IOMs growing role in data collection and analysis.The World Migration Report 2018 is the most downloaded of all IOM publications.It is clearly fulfilling the need to provide a balanced understanding of migrations complexities,present the latest global data and information in an accessible way,and explore and explain complex and emerging migration issues.As the United Nations migration agency,IOM has an obligation to demystify the complexity and diversity of human mobility.The report also acknowledges IOMs continuing emphasis on fundamental rights and its mission to support those migrants who are most in need.This is particularly relevant in the areas in which IOM works to provide humanitarian assistance to people who have been displaced,including by weather events,conflict and persecution,or to those who have become stranded during crises.Likewise,IOM remains committed to supporting Member States as they draw upon various forms of data,research and analysis during policy formulation and review processes.Indeed,this is reflected in IOMs Constitution where the need for migration research is highlighted as an integral part of the Organizations functions.The World Migration Report is a central component of this important function.In this era of heightened interest and activity towards migration and migrants,we hope this 2020 edition of the World Migration Report becomes a key reference point for you.We hope it helps you to navigate this high-profile and dynamic topic during periods of uncertainty,and that it prompts reflection during quieter moments.But most importantly,we hope that you learn something new from the report that can inform your own work,be it in studies,research and analysis,policymaking,communication,or migration practice.Antnio VitorinoDirector GeneralxviReport overview:Providing perspective on migration and mobility in increasingly uncertain timesMARIE MCAULIFFEBINOD KHADRIA1WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 20201REPORT OVERVIEW:PROVIDING PERSPECTIVE ON MIGRATION AND MOBILITY IN INCREASINGLY UNCERTAIN TIMES1IntroductionThe long-term and growing body of evidence on migration and mobility shows that migration is in large part related to the broader global economic,social,political and technological transformations that are affecting a wide range of high-priority policy issues.2 As the processes of globalization deepen,these transformations increasingly shape our lives in our workplaces,in our homes,in our social and spiritual lives as we go about our daily routines.Increasing numbers of people are able to access information,goods and services from around the world because of the ongoing expansion in distance-shrinking technologies.There is also a sense that we are in the midst of a period of considerable uncertainty.Many commentators have called into question the solidity of aspects of the global political order forged in the immediate aftermath of the two world wars,including as they relate to alliances and common interests.3 Others are calling this time the“age of anger”,tracing back the current sense of geopolitical uncertainty and discontent to a dominant and relentless focus on“logic”and“liberal rationalism”at the expense of emotional responsiveness.4 It is within this context that this world migration report focuses on developments in migration over the last two-year period,with an emphasis on providing analysis that takes into account historical and contemporary factors.Historical in recognition that migration and displacement occur within broader long-term social,security,political and economic contexts.Contemporary in recognition that we are in the midst of profound global transformations,and that the resultant changes to our daily lives are impacting the current environment in which migration occurs and is discussed.What has happened in migration?A lot has happened in migration in the last two years since the release of the World Migration Report 2018 in late 2017.5 The world has witnessed historic change at the global level with United Nations Member States coming together to finalize two global compacts on the international manifestations of migration and displacement:the Global Compact for Safe,Orderly and Regular Migration,and the Global Compact on Refugees.The finalization of the compacts is a result of decades-long efforts by States,international organizations,civil society organizations and other actors(such as private sector organizations)to improve

overview:Providing perspective on migration and mobility in increasingly uncertain timeshow migration is governed at the international level.In the years leading up to States committing to develop the compacts,6 numerous dialogues,workshops,consultations and side events at international,regional,national as well as local levels have enabled different migration“realities”to be shared and the many areas of common interest to be expanded through deeper understandings of the benefits of migration as well as the challenges it may present.The compacts,therefore,build upon many years of engagement on the key issues underpinning the two compacts.The unfortunate reality is that there have been major migration and displacement events during the last two years;events that have caused great hardship and trauma as well as loss of life.Foremost have been the displacements of millions of people due to conflict(such as within and from the Syrian Arab Republic,Yemen,the Central African Republic,the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan),extreme violence(such as inflicted upon Rohingya forced to seek safety in Bangladesh)or severe economic and political instability(such as faced by millions of Venezuelans).There has also been growing recognition of the impacts of environmental and climate change on human mobility(such as planned migration/relocation and displacement),including as part of global efforts and international policy mechanisms to address the broader impacts of climate change.7 Large-scale displacement triggered by climate and weather-related hazards occurred in many parts of the world in 2018 and 2019,including in Mozambique,the Philippines,China,India and the United States of America.8 We have also seen the scale of international migration increase in line with recent trends.The number of international migrants is estimated to be almost 272 million globally,with nearly two-thirds being labour migrants.9 This figure remains a very small percentage of the worlds population(at 3.5%),meaning that the vast majority of people globally(96.5%)are estimated to be residing in the country in which they were born.However,the estimated number and proportion of international migrants already surpasses some projections made for the year 2050,which were in the order of 2.6 per cent or 230 million.10 That said,it is widely recognized that the scale and pace of international migration is notoriously difficult to predict with precision because it is closely connected to acute events(such as severe instability,economic crisis or conflict)as well as long-term trends(such as demographic change,economic development,communications technology advances and transportation access).11 We also know from long-term data that international migration is not uniform across the world but is shaped by economic,geographic,demographic and other factors resulting in distinct migration patterns,such as migration“corridors”developed over many years(see chapter 3 of this report for details).The largest corridors tend to be from developing countries to larger economies such as those of the United States,France,the Russian Federation,the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.This pattern is likely to remain the same for many years into the future,especially as populations in some developing subregions and countries are projected to increase in coming decades,placing migration pressure on future generations.12Highlights from Part I of the report on data and information on migration and migrants are outlined below.Further information and discussion

migration changing,or are the depictions of migration changing?As can be seen from the discussion and key highlights above,there have been incremental changes in migration in recent years,such as in the overall scale of migration and displacement,although these changes could not be described as“seismic”.Rather,it would appear that there has been a deepening of existing patterns of migration as opportunities brought about by economic growth and reform,trade liberalization and long-term stability have been further realized.There is also a growing body of evidence indicating that while the general notion of international migration may seem simple and straightforward as depicted in 5WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020news media,for example its complexities are becoming more apparent.13 The issue of how we conceptualize migration and mobility has long been a focus of many scholars and policymakers.14 Recently,some are calling for a rethink,highlighting the growing anomalies resulting from a fairly fixed view of“migration”see text box below on Professor Ronald Skeldons recent paper on the topic.Rethinking international migration,internal migration,mobility and

Parsonsetal.,2007;UNDESA,2015.AbridgedexcerptofSkeldon,2018.We must recognize,however,that the increasing complexity of migration is,in part,also due to more information on migration and migrants being available than ever before.We know more about who migrates,why people migrate,where and how they migrate,although perhaps not to the extent we would prefer.But it is clearer that the bigger issue of“complexity”applies to very many changes occurring globally.Some of the specific ones,highlighted in the textbox below,have been intensively explored and analysed by experts in Part II of this report.13 CzaikaanddeHaas,2014;DeWitte,2018;HallandPosel,2019.14 FaistandGlick-Schiller,2009;HochschildandMollenkopf,2008;King,2012.6Report overview:Providing perspective on migration and mobility in

MIGRATION REPORT 2020The unprecedented pace of change in the(geo)political,social,environmental and technological spheres has led some analysts and commentators to coin or use phrases such as the“age of accelerations”,15 the“fourth industrial revolution”,16 and the“age of change”.17 There is wide recognition of how quickly the world is changing,and of how the pace of change seems to be accelerating beyond all expectations and predictions.There is also a sense that change is resulting in unexpected(and unwanted)impacts:We are living through an era of intense turbulence,disillusionment and bewilderment.Deepening geopolitical tensions are transforming international relations,and political tribalism is revealing deep fissures within countries.The spread of exponential technologies is upending long-held assumptions about security,politics,economics and so much more.18 Of particular note have been major shifts in the political realm,particularly in terms of civic engagement through emerging social media and other online platforms as well as the standards of political leadership.The“Arab Spring”,for example,heralded a significant development in how voices were heard and activists organized in political arenas.19 More recently,we have seen a groundswell in analysis and commentary on the changes that are occurring in democratic systems around the world,and the implications for governance,geopolitics and international cooperation.We are living in a period in which the core values underpinning global governance are being challenged.The values of equity,accountability,impartiality,fairness,justice and probity are being actively undermined as some political leaders disregard common interest in preference for personal interest even if it corrodes laws,processes and institutions that have,overall,sought to advance whole nations and peoples,without excluding or expelling some because of their inherent characteristics or beliefs.20 Ongoing and systematic corrosion,as we have witnessed throughout history,can extend to attacks on human rights and ultimately on groups of people within societies.21As part of current shifts,international migration has increasingly become weaponized.It is being used by some as a political tool,undermining democracy and inclusive civic engagement,by tapping into the understandable fear in communities that stems from the accelerated pace of change and rising uncertainty of our times.22 Some leaders seek to divide communities on the issue of migration,downplaying the significant benefits and enrichment migration brings and steadfastly ignoring our migration histories.And we are increasingly witnessing the harnessing of social media as a means of division and polarization,not just on migration,but at certain times we have seen the deployment of online“tribal tactics”by activists attempting to depict migration in a negative and misleading light.23 Underpinning these changing depictions of international migration is the uptake of technological innovation,particularly information and communications technology(ICT).However,we must also recall that the politicization of migration is not new,as the text box below highlights.15 Friedman,2016.16 Schwab,2016.17 Mauldin,2018.18 MuggahandGoldin,2019.19 AlSayyadandGuvenc,2015.20 Fotaki,2014.21 Rawnsley,2018.22

IOM,2003.Technology as an enabler and a game-changerMigration is intertwined with technology and innovation and there exists a large body of analysis that has assessed how international migration acts to support(and sometimes limit)the transfer of technology and knowledge,often working in tandem with investment and trade flows along historical,geographic and geopolitical connections between countries and communities.24 Technology is increasingly critical throughout the migration process,especially newer forms of technology.In recent years,for example,we have witnessed the use of ICT by migrants to gather information and advice in real time during migration journeys;an issue that is raising interest and,at times,concern.The use of ICT,such as apps to share the latest information,including to support clandestine border crossings,together with the consolidation of social media platforms to connect geographically dispersed groups with common interests,has raised valid questions concerning the extent to which technology has been used to support irregular migration,as well as to enable migrants to avoid abusive and exploitative migrant smugglers and human traffickers.25 Due to the ever-increasing access to emerging technology at low cost,migrants have also developed applications to support better integration in receiving countries,while maintaining social links and financial support to their families and societies back home,including through the increasing prevalence of“mobile money”apps.Other connections between migration and technology are also emerging in migration debates.As artificial intelligence is progressively taken up in key sectors,its consequences for migrant worker flows and domestic labour markets are areas of intense focus for policymakers and businesses in origin and receiving countries.26 24 BurnsandMohapatra,2008;Kapur,2001;Khadria,2004.25 McAuliffe,2016;Sanchez,2018.26 McAuliffe,2018.9WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020Recent discussions have also turned to blockchain technology and its consequences for migration,especially for remittances,but also for digital identities and global mobility.27 Social media technology is also increasingly impacting the politics of migration,with a surge of far-right activism on social media platforms seeking to influence political debates and ultimately political decisions.28 It is within this current context of great change and increasing uncertainty that the World Migration Report 2020 seeks to draw upon the body of available data,research and analysis to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of some of the most important and pressing global migration issues of our time.By their very nature,the complex dynamics of migration can never be fully measured,understood and regulated.However,as this report shows,we do have a continuously growing and improving body of data and evidence that can help us make better sense of the basic features of migration and how they are changing as well as understanding how the context in which migration is occurring is evolving.This is increasingly important as public debates,littered with misinformation and untruths,are increasingly able to utilize the ongoing expansion of open“new media”platforms to achieve distortion and misrepresentation of migration and migrants.The World Migration Report seriesThe first World Migration Report was published 20 years ago,initially as a one-off report designed to increase the understanding of migration by policymakers and the general public.It was conceived at a time when the effects of globalization were being felt in many parts of the world and in a multitude of ways.Indeed,the first World Migration Report states that part of its genesis was due to the effects of globalization on migration patterns,and that the report therefore“looks at the increasingly global economy which has led to an unprecedented influx of newcomers in many countries”.29 The report highlighted the fact that,despite being an“age-old phenomenon”,migration was accelerating as part of broader globalization transformations of economic and trade processes,which were enabling greater movement of labour as well as goods and capital.Table 1 below provides a summary of key statistics reported in the World Migration Report 2000,as compared to this current edition.It shows that while some aspects have stayed fairly constant the proportion of female international migrants as well as the overall proportion of the worlds population who were migrants other aspects have changed dramatically.International remittances,for example,have grown from an estimated 126 billion in 2000 to 689 billion in 2020,underscoring the salience of international migration as a driver of development.This helps to partly explain the emergence of migration as a first-tier global issue that has seen United Nations Member States take a series of steps to strengthen global governance of migration,most notably since 2000(see chapter 11 of this report for discussion).It is unsurprising then that the International Organization for Migration(IOM)itself has grown in size,with a significant increase in membership over the last two decades up from 76 to its current membership of 173 States.Also of note in table 1 is the rise in international migrants globally(up around 85%)as well as of refugees(up around 80%)and internally displaced(up around 97%);all the while remaining very small proportions of the worlds population.27

World Migration Reports have been produced by IOM(see text box below)and it has become the organizations flagship publication series.Its continued strong focus is on making a relevant,sound and evidence-based contribution that increases the understanding of migration by policymakers,practitioners,researchers and the general public.In late 2016,IOM made the decision to refine the World Migration Report series in order to ensure it was able to maximize its contribution to fact-based knowledge on migration globally.Each edition of the series now has two parts comprising:Part I:Key information on migration and migrants(including migration-related statistics);Part II:Balanced,evidence-based analysis of complex and emerging migration issues.11WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020World

Effectively about MigrationWorld Migration Report 2013:Migrant Well-Being and DevelopmentWorld Migration Report 2015:Migrants and Cities:New Partnerships to Manage MobilityWorld Migration Report 2018World Migration Report 2020The move away from single theme editions of the report series to this two-part structure was in recognition of the significant changes in migration research,analysis and publishing,as well as the different expectations and needs of readers.For those who want to find out about key migration facts and figures,Part I brings together the latest information and statistics so that readers are able to better understand migration trends,changing patterns and processes at the global and regional levels.But for those who may be working on(or studying)specific areas of migration policy or practice,deeper dives into the complexities are offered in Part II.Refinement of the series was also in recognition that,as the focus on,and complexity of,migration intensifies,reports limited to a single theme have the potential to understate or miss entirely the broader changes that are occurring in migration transformations globally.A further consideration of the revised series was its intended“value-add”.As an intergovernmental organization,and a new United Nations related organization,it is critical that IOM ensures the World Migration Report serves the public in providing information and analysis that is relevant,accessible,sound,accurate and balanced.The need to avoid duplication or significant overlap is a genuine one,especially in light of newer contributions on migration governance(such as the Migration Governance Indicators).In this way,the World Migration Report series was re-framed to offer strategic analysis of complex and emerging issues facing migration policymakers,rather than describe or assess current policy and governance on migration.The series complements rather than duplicates other work.Evidence indicates that the revised series has been successful in achieving its intended aims,with positive responses from readers,including Member States,migration academics and general readers.The significant,sustained increase in downloads during 2018 and(to date)2019 of the World Migration Report 2018 over previous editions is another encouraging indicator.30 30 Figure6inchapter4ofthisreportprovidesdownloadstatisticsfortheWorldMigrationReports2018and2015.12Report overview:Providing perspective on migration and mobility in increasingly uncertain timesWorld Migration Report 2020 This edition,heralding the twentieth anniversary of the World Migration Report series,builds on the previous report,the 2018 edition,by providing updated migration statistics at the global and regional levels as well as descriptive analysis of complex migration issues.Part I,on“key data and information on migration and migrants”,includes separate chapters on global migration trends and patterns;regional dimensions and developments;and a discussion of recent contributions to migration research and analysis by academia and a wide range of different organizations,including IOM.These three chapters have been produced institutionally by IOM,drawing primarily on analyses by IOM experts,practitioners and officials around the world based on data from a wide range of relevant organizations.The seven chapters in Part II are authored by applied and academic researchers working on migration.They cover a range of“complex and emerging migration issues”including:migrants contributions to societies;migration,inclusion and social cohesion;migration and health;children and unsafe migration;migration and adaptation to environmental change;migrants caught in crises;and recent developments in global migration governance.While the choice of these topics is necessarily selective and subjective,all the chapters in Part II of this report are directly relevant to some of the most prominent and important debates about migration in the world today.Many of these topics lie at the heart of the conundrums that face policymakers as they seek to formulate effective,proportionate and constructive responses to complex public policy issues related to migration.Accordingly,the chapters aim to inform current and future policy deliberations and discussions by providing a clear identification of the key issues,a critical overview of relevant research and analysis,and a discussion of the implications for future research and policymaking.The chapters are not meant to be prescriptive,in the sense of advocating particular policy“solutions”especially as the immediate context is an important determinant of policy settings but informative and helpful to what can be highly contested debates.Part IChapter 2 provides an overview of global data and trends on international migrants(stocks)and international migration(flows).It also provides a discussion of particular migrant groups namely,migrant workers,refugees,asylum seekers,internally displaced persons and stateless persons as well as of remittances.In addition,the chapter refers to the existing body of IOM programmatic data,particularly on missing migrants,assisted voluntary returns and reintegration,resettlement,displacement tracking and human trafficking.While these data are generally not global or representative,they can provide insights into changes that have occurred in relevant IOM programming and operations globally.13WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020Following the global overview,chapter 3 provides a discussion of key regional dimensions of,and developments in,migration.The discussion focuses on six world regions as identified by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs:Africa,Asia,Europe,Latin America and the Caribbean,Northern America,and Oceania.For each of these regions,the analysis includes:i)an overview and brief discussion of key population-related statistics;and ii)succinct descriptions of“key features and developments”in migration in the region,based on a wide range of data,information and analyses,including from international organizations,researchers and analysts.To account for the diversity of migration patterns,trends and issues within each of the six regions,descriptive narratives of“key features and recent developments”are presented at the subregional level.There is a substantial amount of research and analysis on migration that is being undertaken and published by a range of actors such as academics,governments,intergovernmental organizations and think tanks.Chapter 4 provides a selective overview of such contributions,updating the chapter on the topic as it first appeared in the World Migration Report 2018.The overview focuses on migration research outputs published by academia and intergovernmental organizations in 2017 and 2018,which saw a peak in output from intergovernmental organizations,some of which was produced to inform States and other actors during deliberations on the Global Compact for Migration(see chapter 11 of this report for discussion of the compact processes and outcome).Part IIThe lead chapter in Part II examines the historical and contemporary contributions of migrants to communities of destination as well as those back in their place of origin.With this perspective,it focuses on three central domains of migrants contributions:sociocultural,civic-political and economic.In the face of often negatively skewed discussions on migration and migrants,one can lose sight of the fact that migrants have made significant contributions in a multitude of ways.This“reality check”chapter 5 highlights an often overlooked but important topic,placing the analysis in the context of emerging impediments to the recognition of migrants contributions globally.The chapter concludes by outlining the implications for policy deliberations and for further research.Chapter 6 critically reviews the issue of inclusion of migrants in host societies where they adapt to new cultures,customs,social values and language.The chapter provides an overview of the historical development of the policy approaches and terminology related to the topic.It discusses the roles of different stakeholders in optimizing the inclusion of migrants,as well as the importance of policy settings that are directly and indirectly related to inclusion.The chapter concludes with a discussion on the implication for policy responses.Health and migration is often only thought about in crisis terms,but there is much more to the connections between the two.Chapter 7 provides an overview analysis of key issues related to health and migration,including in terms of benefits,vulnerabilities and resilience.The chapter then examines health systems responses and prevailing approaches,as well as gaps in the governance of migration and health.Lessons from good-practice guidelines and the global agendas in migration and health are provided.Chapter 8 deals with child migration that does not conform to the traditional pattern of the migrant child accompanying or following the family in a safe environment,but rather migration that is unsafe,for example,occurring through irregular pathways without family.Following an expository approach,the chapter elaborates different types of child migration,their drivers,and issues related to the data on child migration.It discusses 14Report overview:Providing perspective on migration and mobility in increasingly uncertain timeskey protection challenges affecting child migrants and addresses the current issues and the evolving policies to handle them.The chapter explores the main emerging challenges confronting child migrants and concludes by reflecting on policy and research priorities.Providing an overview of human mobility and adaptation to cope with environmental and climate change,chapter 9 explores empirical research from around the world.Diverse examples of adaptive behaviour are presented from different ecological zones particularly at risk under climate change,namely,mountainous,dryland and coastal areas,as well as cities.The examples address a variety of strategies that promote one or several adaptive forms of migration.The chapter also provides a summary of the international policy frameworks on responses to the mobility aspects of environmental and climate change.The chapter concludes with focused recommendations for research,policy and practice.Chapter 10 deals with crises that migrants are caught up in.Presenting examples of such crises like floods,hurricanes,conflicts,and political and economic crisis,it examines current emergency assistance and urgent protection responses.The chapter provides an overview of the local,national and international responses to such needs faced by different types of migrants and their effectiveness.By drawing on the Migrants in Countries in Crisis Initiative,it examines the varying contexts,responses,gaps,and lessons learned in crisis preparedness and post-crisis recovery.The chapter provides an overview of existing data on migrants facing risk and situations of vulnerability in various countries and assesses the gaps.It concludes with policy and practice implications of responses.As the title spells out,chapter 11 provides an update on the migration governance chapter in the World Migration Report 2018,documenting key developments in global migration governance in the two years since the last report.The chapter provides a descriptive analysis of the development and adoption of the two global compacts,a brief analysis of their contents and the areas of convergence and divergence,an assessment of how they affect global migration governance framework,and the future implications as well as the challenges for implementation.The chapter discusses States commitments to implement and review follow-up and progress of the compacts,and summarizes changes in institutional architecture to support the Global Compact for Migration.The chapter also considers longer-term issues and implications for the future.Overall,this world migration report has been produced to help deepen our collective understanding of the various manifestations and complexities of migration in the face of growing uncertainties.We hope that all readers are able to learn something new from this edition,as well as to draw on its contents as they undertake their work,study or other activities.PART IDATA AND INFORMATION ON MIGRATION AND MIGRANTS19WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 20202MIGRATION AND MIGRANTS:A GLOBAL OVERVIEWIntroductionIn most discussions on migration,the starting point is usually numbers.Understanding changes in scale,emerging trends and shifting demographics related to global social and economic transformations,such as migration,help us make sense of the changing world we live in and plan for the future.The current global estimate is that there were around 272 million international migrants in the world in 2019,which equates to 3.5 per cent of the global population.1 A first important point to note is that this is a very small minority of the worlds population,meaning that staying within ones country of birth overwhelmingly remains the norm.The great majority of people do not migrate across borders;much larger numbers migrate within countries(an estimated 740 million internal migrants in 2009).2 That said,the increase in international migrants has been evident over time both numerically and proportionally and at a slightly faster rate than previously anticipated.3The overwhelming majority of people migrate internationally for reasons related to work,family and study involving migration processes that largely occur without fundamentally challenging either migrants or the countries they enter.In contrast,other people leave their homes and countries for a range of compelling and sometimes tragic reasons,such as conflict,persecution and disaster.While those who have been displaced,such as refugees and internally displaced persons(IDPs),comprise a relatively small percentage of all migrants,they are often the most in need of assistance and support.This chapter,with its focus on key global migration data and trends,seeks to assist migration policymakers,practitioners and researchers in making better sense of the bigger picture of migration,by providing an overview of information on migration and migrants.The chapter draws upon current statistical sources compiled by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs(UN DESA),the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD),the International Labour Organization(ILO),the World Bank,the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees(UNHCR),the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre(IDMC)and the International Organization for Migration(IOM).4 The chapter provides an overview of global data and trends on international migrants(stocks)and international migration(flows).It also provides a discussion of particular migrant groups namely,migrant workers,refugees,asylum seekers,IDPs and missing migrants as well as of stateless persons and remittances.The chapter also refers to the growing body of programmatic IOM data,particularly on assisted voluntary returns and reintegration,resettlement,displacement tracking and victims of human trafficking.While these 1UNDESA,2019a.2UNDP,2009.3See,forexample,IOMsWorld

and migrants:A global overviewdata are generally not global or representative,they can provide insights into changes that have occurred in relevant programming and operations globally.As the United Nations migration agency,with activities relevant to all the themes discussed in this chapter,IOM data have the capacity to provide further insights on migration and its various dynamics,including the diverse needs of migrants.This chapter highlights some of the challenges associated with data collection and definitions that make a comprehensive analysis of migration trends at the global level difficult.5 This also remains an issue for many States attempting to analyse migration trends within their own countries or regions,as reflected in the Global Compact for Safe,Orderly and Regular Migration,with its emphasis on data collection for evidence-based policy(Objective 1 of the Global Compact see discussion in chapter 11 of this report).Ongoing efforts to collect and improve migration statistics have led to an expansion in available data;however,the need for further technical capacity is an obstacle that is yet to be overcome as the international community works to develop a more comprehensive global picture of key aspects of migration.Similarly,defining migration and migrants is complex,as discussed in the text box below.Defining migration,migrant and other key

MIGRATION REPORT 2020International migrants:numbers and trendsUN DESA produces estimates of the number of international migrants globally.The following discussion draws on its estimates,which are based on data provided by States.6 The United Nations Recommendations on Statistics of International Migration defines an“international migrant”as any person who has changed his or her country of usual residence,distinguishing between“short-term migrants”(those who have changed their countries of usual residence for at least three months,but less than one year)and“long-term migrants”(those who have done so for at least one year).However,not all countries use this definition in practice.7 Some countries use different criteria to identify international migrants by,for example,applying different minimum durations of residence.Differences in concepts and definitions,as well as data collection methodologies between countries,hinder full comparability of national statistics on international migrants.Overall,the estimated number of international migrants has increased over the past five decades.The total estimated 272 million people living in a country other than their countries of birth in 2019 was 119 million more than in 1990(when it was 153 million),and over three times the estimated number in 1970(84 million;see table 1).While the proportion of international migrants globally has also increased over this period,it is evident that the vast majority of people continue to live in the countries in which they were born.Table1.Internationalmigrants,19702019YearNumber of migrantsMigrants as a%of the worlds population197084,460,1252.37590,368,0102.280101,983,1492.385113,206,6912.390153,011,4732.995161,316,8952.8

and migrants:A global overviewIn 2019,Europe and Asia each hosted around 82 million and 84 million international migrants,respectively comprising 61 per cent of the total global international migrant stock combined(see figure 1).These regions were followed by North America,with almost 59 million international migrants in 2019 or 22 per cent of the global migrant stock,Africa at 10 per cent,Latin America and the Caribbean at 4 per cent,and Oceania at 3 per cent.When compared with the size of the population in each region,shares of international migrants in 2019 were highest in Oceania,North America and Europe,where international migrants represented,respectively,21 per cent,16 per cent and 11 per cent of the total population.8 In comparison,the share of international migrants is relatively small in Asia and Africa(1.8%and 2%,respectively)and Latin America and the Caribbean(1.8%).However,Asia experienced the most remarkable growth from 2000 to 2019,at 69 per cent(around 34 million people in absolute terms).9 Europe experienced the second largest growth during this period,with an increase of 25 million international migrants,followed by an increase of 18 million international migrants in North America and 11 million in Africa.10Figure1.Internationalmigrants,bymajorregionofresidence,2005to2019(millions)0102030405060708090OceaniaNorthern AmericaLatin America

increase in international migration in some regions over time has had an impact on population change.Figure 2 shows the proportional population change for each of the worlds six regions from 2009 to 2019.While Europe has traditionally been one of the major destination regions for international migrants,it has had the slowest rate of proportional population change over this period,at slightly over 1 per cent.However,the rate would arguably be much lower without international migrants who have mitigated decreasing populations 8UNDESA,2019a.9Ibid.10 Ibid.25WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020in some European countries due,for example,to declining birth rates.11 By comparison,Africa underwent the most significant change,with its population growing by nearly 30 per cent over this period,due to high fertility rates and increasing lifespans.12 This growth has nevertheless been softened by emigration from Africa to other regions(namely Europe and Asia see chapter 3 of this report for discussion).Figure2.Proportionalpopulationchangebyregion,2009201902468101214EuropeNorthern AmericaAsiaLatin America and the CaribbeanOceaniaAfricaPer cent change 20092014Per cent change

may be most pronounced for Africa,in 2019 more than half the worlds total population resided in just one region:Asia(4.6 billion people).From 2009 to 2019,the population in Asia grew by nearly 440 million(from 4.16 billion to 4.6 billion),compared with just under 300 million in Africa(from 1.01 billion to 1.31 billion).13 Five of the worlds top 10 most populous countries are in Asia(China,India,Indonesia,Pakistan and Bangladesh).14The United States of America has been the main country of destination for international migrants since 1970.15 Since then,the number of foreign-born people residing in the country has more than quadrupled from less than 12 million in 1970,to close to 51 million in 2019.Germany,the second top destination for migrants,has also observed an increase over the years,from 8.9 million in 2000 to 13.1 million in 2019.A list of the top 20 destination countries of international migrants is provided in the left column of figure 3.11

overviewThe list of largest migrant origin countries and territories is shown on the right in figure 3.More than 40 per cent of all international migrants worldwide in 2019(112 million)were born in Asia,16 primarily originating from India(the largest country of origin),China,and South Asian countries such as Bangladesh,Pakistan and Afghanistan.Mexico was the second largest country of origin,and the Russian Federation was fourth.Several other European countries have sizable populations of emigrants,including Ukraine,Poland,the United Kingdom and Germany.Figure3.Top20destinations(left)andorigins(right)ofinternationalmigrantsin2019(millions)05101520TurkeyEgyptRomaniaMyanmarPalestinian TerritoriesKazakhstanGermanyUnited

high-income countries in 2019 around 176 million.18 This compares with 82 million foreign-born who resided in middle-income countries(about one third of the total migrant stock)and 13 million in low-income countries in the same year.Income levels of destination countries for migrant workers are further discussed in the section on migrant workers below.16 UNDESA,2019a.17 PerWorldBankcountryincomegroupclassifications,inWorldBankCountryandLendingGroups(WorldBank,n.d.a).18 UNDESA,2017a.27WORLD MIGRATION REPORT 2020While international migrants may tend to gravitate toward high-income countries,their origins globally can be diverse.Some origin countries have high proportions of their nationals living abroad for economic,political,security,trade or cultural reasons that may be contemporary or historical in nature.For example,the Syrian Arab Republic has a higher rate of emigration than most other countries due to displacement caused by long-term conflict(see discussion below on refugees for more detail).Figure 4 highlights countries with high proportions of emigrants in 2019.Importantly,the emigration proportion of a country represents an accumulation of migration(and displacement)over time,sometimes many decades.Of note is the geographic diversity of the countries in figure 4(countries from all regions except Northern America are included)as well as the high number of countries from Latin America and the Caribbean(10 of the 20 countries).Figure4.Top20countriesofemigrationin2019(proportion)10 0Pp%Proportion of combined population who are

and migrants:A global overviewUN DESA estimates of foreign-born populations do not reflect immigration status or policy categories(such as students,highly skilled migrants,or refugees).Capturing such attributes is inherently difficult for several key reasons.First,a persons immigration status can be fluid and change quickly,arising from circumstances and legal/policy settings.For example,many international migrants who may be described as undocumented”or“irregular”enter countries on valid visas and then stay in contravention of one or more visa conditions.In fact,there are many paths to irregularity,such as crossing borders without authorization,unlawfully overstaying a visa period,working in contravention of visa conditions,being born into irregularity,or remaining after a negative decision on an asylum application has been made.19 Second,countries have different immigration policy settings and different ways of collecting data on migrants,which makes it difficult to establish a harmonized approach to capturing irregular migrant stocks globally.The pace of change in the migration policy arena also poses an extra dimension of complexity,as people may slip into and out of“irregularity”.Notably,there have been very few global estimates of the number of irregular migrants because of this complexity.However,this has not prevented some organizations from coming up with inflated and incorrect global estimatessee text box below on“what not to do”.What not to do:estimating the global population of irregular

noted in the text box earlier on the chapter on“defining migration,migrant and other key terms”,there necessarily exist different definitions,depending on the circumstances in which they are applied.In some legal/policy situations,as well as in general discussions,for example,a“migrant”can include a person who has never migrated.See the discussion of the common problem of conflating“migration”and“migrant”in the text box below.19 Gordonetal.,2009.29WORLD MIGRATION REPORT

See,forexample,Neto,1995;FertigandSchmidt,2001.b Kyaw,2017.c Skeldon,2018.International migration flows:definitions,numbers and gapsWhile data on migrant stocks are widely available,data on global migration movements(flows)are much more limited.Available UN DESA estimates on global migrant stocks are extensive and global in scope;however,the database of migration flows only encompasses 45 countries.20 Capturing data on migration flows is extremely challenging for several reasons.First,while international migration flows are generally accepted as covering inflows and outflows into and from countries,there has been a greater focus on recording inflows.For example,while countries such as Australia and the United States count cross-border movements,many others only count entries and not departures.21 Additionally,migration flow data in some countries are derived from administrative events related to immigration status(for example,issuance/renewal/withdrawal of a residence permit)and are thus used as a proxy for migration flows.Furthermore,migratory movements are often hard to separate from non-migratory travel,such as tourism or business.22 Tracking migratory movements also requires considerable resources,infrastructure and IT/knowledge systems.This poses particular challenges for developing countries,where the ability to collect,administer,analyse and report data on mobility,migration and other areas is often limited.Finally,many countries physical geographies pose tremendous challenges for collecting data on migration flows.Entry and border management,for example,is particularly challenging in some regions,because of archipelagic and isolated borders,and it is further complicated by traditions of informal migration for work.2320 Laczko,2017.21

MIGRATION REPORT 2020Migration flows There are currently two main international datasets on international migration flows,both of which are derived from national statistics:UN DESAs International Migration Flows dataset and OECDs International Migration Database.Since 2005,UN DESA has compiled data on the flows of international migrants to and from selected countries,based on nationally available statistics.At the time of writing(August 2019),there had been no update to the UN DESA flows dataset,with the most current being the 2015 version.The 2015 migration flows dataset comprises data from 45 countries(only 43 on emigration flows),up from 29 countries in 2008 and 15 countries in 2005.24 The OECD data on migration flows have been collected since 2000,which allows for limited trend analysis,as shown in figure 5(though data are not standardized,as explained in the note under the figure).25 The estimates suggest that permanent migration inflows to OECD countries increased from 3.85 million in 2000 to 7.06 million in 2016,with a temporary lull occurring around the time of the global financial crisis(figure 5).Germany remained the main OECD destination country in 2016,with over 1.7 million new international migrants(more than double the levels registered in 2000,but with a decrease compared with more than 2 million in 2015)arriving that year,followed by the United States(nearly 1.2 million)and the United Kingdom(about 450,000 new migrants).26Figure5.InflowsofforeignnationalsintoOECDcountries,permanentmigration,20002016(millions)01234567820162015201420132012201120102009200820072006200520042003200220012000millionsSource:OECD,n.d.a.Notes:DataarenotstandardizedandthereforedifferfromstatisticsonpermanentmigrationinflowsintoselectedcountriescontainedinOECDsInternational

MIGRATION REPORT 2020Migrant workersThe latest available estimates indicate that there were roughly 164 million migrant workers around the world in 2017,accounting for nearly two thirds(64%)of the(then)258 million global stock of international migrants.27 When compared with the global population of international migrants of working age regarded as 15 years of age or older(234 million)migrant workers account for 70 per cent.For a range of reasons,however,these global figures are likely to be underestimates.28 While earlier global estimates of migrant workers have been produced,ILO notes that these cannot be compared with 2017 figures,due to definitional differences and changes in methodology and data sources.In 2017,68 per cent of migrant workers were residing in high-income level countries an estimated 111 million people.An additional 47 million migrant workers(29%)were living in middle-income countries,and 5.6 million(3.4%)were in low-income countries.While we are unable to compare the numbers of migrant workers over time,it is useful to examine changes in proportional distribution.In 2017,for example,there was a noticeable change in destination country category;that is,from 2013 to 2017,high-income countries experienced a 7 percentage point drop in migrant workers(from 75%to 68%),while upper-middle-income countries observed a 7 percentage point increase(from 12%to 19%)(see figure 6).This apparent shift may be influenced by economic growth in middle-income countries and/or changes to labour immigrati

长坡厚雪长坡厚雪千亿千亿赛道,短期需求赛道,短期需求有望有望反弹。反弹。减速机是工业自动化核心零部件,在原动机和工作机之间起着匹配转速和增大扭矩的作用。2021 年我国减速机市场整体规模为 1258 亿元,其中通用减速机市场约 500 亿元,专用减速机市场约 700 亿元。到 2026 年,我国减速机市场规模有望将达 1605 亿元,2021-2026 年年复合增速约 5%。长期看,长期看,我国减速机企业受益于人口老龄化带来的自动化需求、国产替代趋势以及新应用场景带来的增量市场。短期短期看看,2023 年宏观经济有望复苏,行业需求有望反弹。通用减速机:行业整合叠加国产替代,内资龙头份额提升。通用减速机:行业整合叠加国产替代,内资龙头份额提升。通用减速机用途多、宏观经济周期相关度高、行业格局分散,以 SEW、Flender 为代表的外资占据着国内高端市场,国茂股份、通力科技等内资龙头占据中端市场。近年来,随着终端用户对产品性能要求的提高,低端市场份额由 2011 年的 80%萎缩至 2019 年的 25%,中高端市场份额则扩大至 75%。内资龙头技术不断升级,逐渐开始国产替代步伐。在行业加速整合与国产替代趋势下,在行业加速整合与国产替代趋势下,三家三家内内资龙头份额由资龙头份额由 19 年的年的 7.1%提升至提升至 21 年年的的 10%左右左右。精密减速机:国产替代加速推进,应用场景逐步拓宽。精密减速机:国产替代加速推进,应用场景逐步拓宽。精密减速机下游主要应用是工业机器人,其中谐波减速机体积小、传动比高,主要应用于机器人小臂、腕部或手部,RV 减速机体积大、负载能力高,主要应用于基座、大臂、肩部。经测算,2021 年我国工业机器人用精密减速机市场规模约 45 亿元,2025 年有望达到近百亿,2021-2025 年间行业年均增速高达 20%以上。此前日本企业纳博特斯克、哈默纳科分别垄断 RV 减速机、谐波减速机市场。近年来绿的谐波技术、市场双突破,在国内自主品牌机器人用谐波减速机领域中基本实现对哈默纳科的替代。RV 减速机的技术与前期投资要求更高,目前纳博特斯克仍占主导,但双环传动、秦川机床等企业的 RV 板块已经在21 年实现盈亏平衡,RV 减速机国产替代有望加速推进。另一方面,数控机床、人形机器人、协作机器人等新应用场景不断涌现,带动行业持续扩容。减速齿轮减速齿轮&微型传动:新兴市场增量。微型传动:新兴市场增量。(1)减速齿轮:减速齿轮:汽车电动化趋势带来减速齿轮精度需求提升,同时双电机布局、两级减速器带来更多减速齿轮需求,我们测算 2021 年中国电动乘用车减速齿轮市场规模达 18.6 亿,2025年有望达到 71.5 亿元,2021-2025 年 CAGR 达 40%左右。(2)微型传动:微型传动:汽车电子、VR/AR 带来微型传动系统市场增量需求,经测算 2023-2025 年全球 VR/AR 领域微型传动系统累计市场空间将达到 78

单级减速齿轮是目前新能源车的常用传动解决方案。单级减速齿轮是目前新能源车的常用传动解决方案。电动汽车与传统汽车在传动系统上的差异很大,燃油车通常需要五挡及以上的多挡位变速箱进行转速和车速匹配的传动系统,但目前新能源电动汽车多采用单级减速齿轮作为传动的核心部件。这是因为电机本身具有与传统内燃机不同的工作特性,电机在低转速时能够输出大扭矩,高速时能够输出恒功率,因此电机的特性基本与车辆需求吻合,不需要变速箱去进行过多的转速匹配。基于这个特点,单级减速齿轮逐渐成为了新能源车最常见的传动解决方案。此外,由于驱动电机相比传统发动机更加小巧,且新能源车底盘需搭载电池,空间相对有限,因此,集成了电机、减速器、控制器等部件的一体化电驱系统已成为市场主流,动力系统的模块化、小型化成为了必然。目前电驱系统厂家大多推出了由驱动电机、减速器集成的“二合一”系统,并且也研发出多款电机、减速器、控制器集成的“三合一”系统产品,正在逐步推向市场。图图
