2. Introduction

3. Background of RE Doubling Goal
The United Nations Secretary-Genera launched a pioneering new initiative, “Sustainable Energy for All” (SE4ALL), on 1 Nov 2011, to mobilize urgent global action: Double the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix by 2030.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is the renewable energy hub of the SE4ALL initiative and supports SE4ALL partners, and thus can be a strategic partner.
A doubling of the share of renewables worldwide does not mean a doubling in every country. (IRENA)

4. Background of RE Doubling Goal
EWG 47
2014
The United States presented the proposed APEC aspirational goal of doubling renewable energy by 2030.
The EWG expressed broad support for the goal, but noted that the goal is a collective target and requires refinements in the definition.
The EWG will revisit the goal every five years up to 2035, and the goal would need to work with other international agencies .
EMM 11
Energy Ministers aspired to the goal of “doubling the share of renewables in the APEC energy mix, including in power generation, from 2010 levels by ”
Energy Ministers instructed the EWG through the EGNRET to develop the road map .
Leaders’ Meeting
“We endorse the Energy Ministers’ aspirational goal to double the share of renewables including in power generation by 2030 in APEC’s energy mix.” (Declaration)
2015
“We therefore reaffirm our aspirational goals to reduce aggregate energy intensity by 45 percent by 2035 and double renewable energy in the regional energy mix by 2030 to achieve sustainable and resilient energy development within the Asia-Pacific. “(Declaration)

6. EGNRET Activities for RE Doubling Goal
Chinese Taipei
2016
Discussion on How to Achieve Sustainable and Resilient Energy Development in APEC Region in Line with COP21.
It is important to develop the roadmap for achieving the Leaders’ aspirational goal of doubling the share of renewables in APEC’s energy mix.
It is supported to have an new initiative to approach the roadmap to the doubling goal.

11. Traditional Biomass Energy
Solid biomass including fuel wood, charcoal, agricultural and forest residues, and animal dung, that is typically used in rural areas of developing countries with traditional technologies such as open fires for cooking, kilns, and ovens for small-scale agricultural and industrial processing.
Often the use of traditional biomass leads to high pollution levels, forest degradation, and deforestation.
