Correct answer: B. 1, 3 and 4 only

The Climate Group is indeed an international non-profit focused on climate action through collaborative networks. EP100, a global initiative focused on energy efficiency, was launched by The Climate Group in partnership with the International Energy Agency (IEA). This initiative aims to bring together companies committed to innovation in energy efficiency and emission reduction. Several prominent Indian companies are participants in the EP100 initiative. The IEA does not serve as the Secretariat for the Under2 Coalition; that role is typically held by The Climate Group.
