In short
- We must ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and renewable energy for all
- That’s why we must think of new renewable energy solutions
Global Goal
The aim of this initiative is to increase both energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources. Energy is needed worldwide for our prosperity and well-being; for living, working and housing.
Development of society is driven by energy. That’s why universal access to energy is paramount. At the same time, energy is one of the most significant problems of this century as too much energy is extracted from fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. These raw materials are finite and cause climate change and air pollution. The production of energy causes a large part of greenhouse gas emissions.
