Catalysing action on energy for development

While the world heads towards a potential 2.9°C temperature rise this century, the urgency of the energy transition must also account for the stark disparity in energy access globally. With population growth outpacing new grid deployment and the affordability of off-grid solutions undermined by inflationary pressures, the number of people without access to energy is not decreasing at the pace needed to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in developing economies. The meeting will convene cross-sectoral actors to identify financial, technological and policy solutions aimed at scaling up the use of clean energy solutions while also ensuring
equitable growth.

En este contexto, es crucial que las empresas, los gobiernos y la sociedad civil trabajen juntos para encontrar soluciones comunes y tomar medidas decisivas. A través de sus Centros, el Foro Económico Mundial integra esfuerzos público-privados para lograr un mayor impacto.
