Summary: | In declaring 2012 the International
Year of Sustainable Energy for All, the UN General Assembly
established three global objectives to be accomplished by
2030: to ensure universal access to modern energy services,1
to double the 2010 share of renewable energy in the global
energy mix, and to double the global rate of improvement in
energy efficiency relative to the period 1990 2010 (SE4ALL
2012). To sustain momentum for the achievement of the SE4ALL
objectives, a means of charting global progress to 2030 is
needed. The World Bank and the International Energy Agency
led a consor¬tium of 15 international agencies to establish
the SE4ALL Global Tracking Framework (GTF), which provides a
system for regular global reporting, based on rigorous, yet
practical, given available databases, technical measures.
This note is based on that frame¬work (World Bank 2014).
SE4ALL will publish an updated version of the GTF in 2015. |
