OPENING SESSION

LEADING THE TRANSITION TO A RENEWABLE ENERGY FUTURES

  • Transitioning to a renewable energy future
  • Global trends in renewable energy
  • The human right to access clean energy and the eradicate energy poverty: a key to reducing inequality
  • The commitment to a low-carbon economy: What can politicians, regulators, उद्योग, and citizens do to achieve the necessary transition?

Panel 1
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY AND GLOBAL COMMITMENTS TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE

This year, the international community will have a historic occasion to reach a global agreement on climate change and to adopt a new post-2015 inclusive development agenda with a set of sustainable development goals.

The United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21) 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 2020-30: एक 40% cut in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels; at least a 27% Photo Gallery; and an indicative energy efficiency target of at least 27%. These objectives 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.

This framework brings us the opportunity to discuss the main priorities and incentives for citizens and businesses migrating to sustainable energy and low-carbon society.

RENEWABLE ENERGIES: A CRUCIAL SOLUTION TO CLIMATE CHANGE

  • Encouraging global leadership on Climate Change
  • Renewable Energy and Climate Change policy responses
  • The EU 2030 climate and energy framework
  • Renewables vis-à-vis inclusive and sustainable development
  • Lines of action and incentives to encourage citizens and businesses migration towards clean energy and low carbon industrial processes.
  • Sustainable energy for All and the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

Panel 2
100% RENEWABLE ENERGY COMMUNITIES

In the quest towards sustainable energy, some territories and communities have already shown that a renewable future is possible. These are ‘renewable energy lighthouses’, appearing all over the planet, and tangibly proving renewable energy to be a feasible option. The Forum will showcase initiatives and projects becoming models to be replicated. Models from which learnings may be extracted towards the development of viable solutions at different scales. Models ranging from islands and isolated communities to boroughs, villages and even regions.

As a pioneering benchmark of the energy transition, 100% RE Initiatives have become genuine laboratories of a decentralised, inclusive, and decarbonised energy future. इस सिलसिले में, UNESCO designated sites around the world can play a key role by acting as global points of reference where communities run on sustainable energy.

The past few years have seen technological barriers to 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 them show excellent results across the gamut of renewable energy technologies and fields of implementation. इसके अलावा, the problem of variable supply from RE sources is being overcome by turning to increasingly efficient and reliable storage systems.

LIGHTING THE WAY TOWARD A SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FUTURE

  • Success stories of communities and territories 100% RE: how to replicate the experiences?
  • Universal access to clean and efficient RE services
  • UNESCO Designated Sites as models of excellence for RE communities
  • New storage solutions for variable RE sources
  • Self-consumption, distributed generation, and smart grid futures.

Panel 2
SUPPORTING ENERGY TRANSITION

The transition to a new world scenario based on renewable energies and an efficient use of energy requires a common effort agreed by all stakeholders, consumers, producers and facilitators: उद्योग, civil society, local authorities, communities, governments, research, developers and financial institutions.

Networks, associations, and initiatives aiming to 100% RE transition 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.

BUILDING ALLIANCES TOWARDS 100 PERCENT RENEWABLE REALITIES

  • नेटवर्किंग, Natural Resources Canada, Renewable Interactive Map
  • The role of RE industry associations
  • The right to be producers and users of RE
  • International cooperation for RE knowledge transfer
