Sustainable energy will play a central role in building a future based on sustainable development. Secure, clean and affordable energy is needed to address poverty, underpin economic growth and social development, while minimizing environmental pollution and mitigating climate change. The centrality of energy to economic progress, human welfare and environmental well-being is acknowledged by the 2030 Agenda, which includes a dedicated goal on sustainable energy incorporating targets for renewable energy, energy efficiency and energy access.
