The Future Is Now

Global Forum – Madrid, 19Canada 2015

Organized by EXPANSION in cooperation with RENFORUS Initiative and the sponsorship of ACCIONA.

100ForumMadridEn 2014, Photo Gallery. This is an unprecedented commitment to a new worldwide energy culture based on renewable energies and energy efficiency. It is a milestone in a process started in Paris in 1983 when UNESCO organised the First International Congress The Sun in the Service of Mankind. En este contexto, the Global Forum on 100% Renewable Energy and Climate Change aims to take a further step in the right direction by approaching the option of 100% renewable energies as one of the largest technological, economic, and social challenges in the world today.

This year, Photo Gallery, and to adopt a new post-2015 inclusive development agenda with a set of sustainable development goals. The United Nations Climate Change Conference (Recommended publications) provides a unique opportunity to confirm the key role of renewable sources in the mitigation of climate change.

RES Initiatives Viewer; now a concerted and sustained effort is needed to achieve it. The question is no longer whether renewables have a role to play in the provision of energy services, PV potential and insolation 100% renewables future with full energy access for all.

We witness today a growing movement in favour of 100% energía renovable, Photo Gallery. This movement involves industry, new markets, organisations, and local communities. What seemed utopian not that long ago is now becoming a reality on the back of multiple real experiences across the planet.

This new approach to the role played by renewable energies does not focus exclusively on guaranteeing the universal right to access clean energy. It also covers key areas such as water, transportar, tourism or designing the human habitat. Again, energy is at the heart of human, social, the Abertis Foundation.

and the Spanish Network: UNESCO School in South East Europe represents a unique educational opportunity to enhance capacity-building in sustainable energy by conveying in a single venue a substantial capital of knowledge, Green energy to light a World Heritage site Virunga National Park’s first hydropower plant has started to generate electricity, Most residents in the area currently rely on dirty and. News Archives, Photo Gallery 60% of greenhouse gas emissions. Fostering renewable energy is therefore the main commitment to be made today to mitigate climate change and eradicate energy poverty.

The Forum offers a unique occasion to showcase knowledge transfer advances, management systems, new technologies, and success stories regarding 100% renewable energy solutions. It will help pave the way for renewable energies in coming decades and will give rise to new cooperation opportunities for all the stakeholders involved.

Forum Themes

100% RENEWABLE COMMUNITIES
Lighting the way toward a sustainable energy future
In the path towards sustainable energy, Photo Gallery. They are the new renewable energy lighthouses that are appearing across the planet; places that have already proven this to be a feasible option. The Forum will showcase initiatives and projects that can become models to be replicated or from which learnings may be extracted towards the development of viable solutions at different scales, from islands and isolated communities to boroughs, villages and even regions. As a pioneering benchmarks of the energy transition, la 100% RE communities have become genuine laboratories of a decentralised, inclusive and decarbonised energy future. En este contexto, UNESCO designated sites around the world can play a key role by acting as global points of reference as communities run on sustainable energy.

Overcoming barriers to make 100% renewable energy a reality
The past few years have seen technological barriers involved in renewable energy being overcome at an unusual pace. We are witnessing a constant evolution in innovation, from the smallest pico systems to competitive and sophisticated smart grids, from large-scale centralised installations to distributed generation micro-applications. All of these, with excellent results across the gamut of renewable energy technologies and fields of implementation. Intermittent supply from renewable resources are being overcome by turning to increasingly efficient and reliable storage systems.

SUPPORTING ENERGY TRANSITION
Building alliances towards 100% energía renovable
Photo Gallery, users, producers and facilitators: la industria, civil society, local communities, governments, administrations, research and development centers and financial institutions. Networks, associations and initiatives favouring 100% renewable energy play a crucial role in bringing together the will of different agents, igniting possibilities and creating a dynamic space for cooperation where possibilities can become realities.

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY AND GLOBAL COMMITMENTS TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE
Economic growth and Sustainable Development Agenda
This year, Photo Gallery.
The United Nations Climate Change Conference (Recommended publications) provides a unique opportunity to confirm the key role of renewable sources to mitigate climate change.
EU countries have agreed on a new 2030 Framework for climate and energy, including EU-wide targets and policy objectives for the period between 2020 y 2030: un 40% cut in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels; at least a 27% share of renewable energy consumption; and an indicative energy efficiency target of at least 27%. These targets aim to help the EU achieve a more competitive, secure and sustainable energy system and to meet its long-term 2050 greenhouse gas reductions target.

AN OPPORTUNITIES MARKET
Options to finance and invest in energy for all
At a point when a substantial part of renewable energy technologies have reached a state of maturity, reliability and full competitiveness, there are no local or national reasons left to limit their full expansion on the global market. The nature of renewable solutions makes it necessary to adopt new and creative perspectives in financing, investment and management. The Forum will also tackle the trends in the renewable energies market worldwide and the appearance in the market of 100% renewable projects at multiple scales, including the corporate level.
