Renewables are one of the fastest, cleanest, most cost-effective and secure ways to reduce pollution and transition away from fossil fuels in this crucial decade. Yet, despite record-breaking growth, deployment is still way below achieving 1.5°C temperature goals and the global target to triple renewable energy by 2030.
Collective action from governments, individuals, communities, public and private sectors can make a difference and accelerate the pace of renewable energy growth. Political leaders have a chance to drive investment and accelerate the clean energy transition over the next 12 months by setting specific and actionable renewable energy targets in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and supporting global targets for energy storage and grids.
This letter to world leaders spells out this unique opportunity governments have to Now Deliver Change – it is supported by a global coalition of stakeholders from industry, finance and civil society.
The world needs 3xRenewables for a clean, secure and just future.
