Ringkasan

TLDRThe speech highlights the crucial role of sustainable energy in achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, focusing on Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SG7) which aims to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all. It emphasizes that energy is vital for economic growth, health, education, poverty eradication, gender equality, and sustainable industrialization. The speaker points out that transforming the global energy system is urgent, with commitments from COP 28 to triple global renewable capacity and transition away from fossil fuels to achieve the Paris Agreement's climate goals. Despite renewables being the cheapest electricity source and their workforce surpassing fossil fuels, significant challenges remain, especially for developing countries. By 2021, 675 million people lacked electricity globally, with 567 million in sub-Saharan Africa. Stagnation of clean energy investments highlights the need for action by G20 and COP 29 to mobilize finance and technology. By 2040, electricity should be fossil-free worldwide. The speaker calls for a just transition requiring unprecedented global cooperation, ensuring no one is left behind, aiming for universal clean power access by 2030.

    The speech centers on the global agenda to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all by 2030. Energy is deemed essential to economic development, healthcare, and education, influencing efforts to eradicate poverty, advance gender equality, and promote sustainable industrialization. Without progress in sustainable energy (SDG7), achieving other Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is hindered. The speaker emphasizes the urgency and feasibility of transforming the global energy system, highlighting commitments from COP28 to increase renewable capacity and reduce reliance on fossil fuels to meet the Paris Agreement's climate goals. Despite the growth in clean energy sectors, significant populations, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, lack electricity, and investments have stagnated outside China. The speech calls for action from G20 and COP29 to enhance finance and technologies for developing countries, suggesting that expanding renewables and phasing out fossil fuels should be priorities to achieve a fossil-free power system worldwide by 2040.
