The document discusses sustainable development goals for energy access, efficiency, and low carbon energy supply for a post-2015 agenda. It proposes goals for increasing renewable energy shares, reducing costs of low carbon technologies, boosting annual investments in energy access, and improving efficiency in buildings and economic sectors. The goals would contribute to outcomes like behavioral changes and investments, and ultimately impact sustainable development through economic, environmental and social changes.

2. IRF research agenda
• Post 2015 universal development vision and
narrative
• SDG objectives structure and hierarchy
• Indepth analysis of multilevel implementation
of specific goal areas such as water, energy
and food
• Indicators, monitoring and learning systems

10. Energy for shared development globally
faster development in the world’s poor regions, requiring energy for
productive/ industrial economic activities world wide.
Energy for ”modern society”
Energy for productive and industrial
purposes
Access to basic energy services for the poor
Energy for basic needs and MDGs
providing lighting, cooking and other basic energy services to all based
on an extension of the MDG goals
10
11. Key question
• What are the energy systems implications of a
development pathway with converging per capita
incomes over the long term?
– A detailed sector-by-sector energy scenario for 22 world regions
-a good chance to achieve 2 degrees climate change
-meeting global needs for energy for development
- observing land and water constraints
– 1st roll out of basic energy services to the poor
– 2nd energy demand on par with middle income
• radical improvements in energy efficiency
• accelerated retirement of fossil fuels
• shift toward renewable energy sources

18. Making sustainable energy for all real
• Access
• 2030 Ensuring universal access to modern energy services
• 2050 +Ensuring enough supply for productive economic
activities world wide
• Efficiency
• 2030 Doubling the rate of improvement in energy efficiency
• 2050 +Electrification of processes and transport
• Low carbon energy
• 2030 Doubling the share of renewable energy in the global
energy mix
• 2050 +Ensuring land and water requirements are balanced

21. Selected policy implications
International
1. Establish energy access, low carbon supply and efficiency as SDGs
2. Establish global mechanism for energy for development – with
goals, financing and technology sharing
National
1. Investment and RD&D needs not met - put the state back in the
game, reinvent industrial policy
2. Put predictable but dynamic hard regulations in place to direct
and drive innovation efforts
Subnational
1. Nurture private-public partnerships to enable infrastructure
investments and innovation platforms
2. Foster new business models and entrepreneurship for access and
for efficient practices
22. Sustainable Development Goals
can be formulated as:
• Contributing goals
– Processes and decisions towards the goals
• Ultimate goals
– Outcomes - changes in behaviours / investments etc
– Impacts – changes in society or the environment
Policy and Policy outputs Outcomes Impacts on SD

28. Efficiency goals
– Activity levels of energy services in households
• Electrification and electricity use per capita
• Modern cooking stoves in use
– Activity levels of energy services in economic sectors
– Intensity in economy wide and in sectors
– Intensities / efficiency measurements in buildings
• Conversion rates of existing stock
• Performance of new buildings

Notas del editor
This leads to enormous equity issues of course. The State of New York with its 20 M people consume about as much electricity as Subsaharan africa’s 800 million people.
But returning to the development challenge, a major cause of concern is the unequal use of energy.
There are also safety, education
A study we are presenting
Three strategies to make this happen Electrification of energy systems Move to low carbon energy sources and drastic increase in RES Efficiency
Need for innovation to bring costs down and acceptance up - requires public investment
