UN General Assembly resolution 65/ Energy Goals ● ●Universal Access to Modern Energy ● ●Double Energy Efficiency Improvement ● ●Double Renewable Share in Final Energy Aspirational & Ambitious but Achievable
Universal access is a pre-condition for overcoming poverty and feasible if all stake- holders work together. Energy transformation will bring multiple co- benefits for health, security, climate change Financing requirements are huge but achievable with right and sustained policies Towards a more Sustainable Future
#4 Mapping Energy Access Final energy access (non-commercial share) in relation to population density
Universal access is a pre-condition for overcoming poverty and feasible if all stake- holders work together. Energy transformation will bring multiple co- benefits for health, security, climate change Financing requirements are huge but achievable with right and sustained policies Towards a more Sustainable Future

#13 Co-Benefits of Energy Investments
#14 Co-Benefits of Energy Investments
UN General Assembly resolution 65/151 The Way Forward ● ●Global Political Commitment – the huge multiple benefits as drivers ● ●Country Level Action is Key – identifying what works best in each country ● ●Private Sector is Key Partner – enabling environments for investment ● ●Facilitating Decision Making – much analytic and data work needed ● ●Supporting Country Efforts – financial and capacity development huge needs
UN General Assembly resolution 65/151 Integrated Solutions ● ●Political – links to global debates (MDGs, UNFCCC, WTO, RIO + 20, etc.) ● ●Sectoral – links to policies in other sectors are fundamental ● ●Geography - urban, provincial, regional, national linkages are necessary ● ●People - education, information and incentives for lifestyle changes ● ●Implementation - strong institutions (national and international) and facilitating mechanisms
