Sustainable energy for development
The German government, and specifically the development ministry, supports the goal of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s Sustainable Energy for All initiative to bring access to sustainable energy to all people by 2030. The initiative is working to bring about a global turnaround in energy policy, away from fossil fuels and towards more renewable energy and greater energy efficiency. Together with its global development partners – Brazil, India, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa – BMZ will continue to work on finding answers to those countries’ energy challenges, creating the necessary energy and environmental policies for sustainable development and, at the same time, facilitating access to energy for huge groups of people who do not yet have adequate supplies.
