Opis

The Perfect Storm: Navigating the Sustainable Energy Transition is a series of articles written by contributors from around the world and is organized around five themes: Energy Governance, Energy Finance & Sustainable Development, Sustainable Manufacturing & Trade, The Energy Transition in Action, and Urbanization & People Mobility. 2016 was in many ways a pivotal year for sustainability with the warmest year on record, the launch of the Sustainable Development Goals and the ratification of the Paris Agreement. These two global agreements provide the context for various stakeholders to set their own sustainability agendas. The authors argue that sustainable energy is not only vital for human activity, but also achievable during the 21st century to support the sustainable living of 10 billion people. This will require system transformation in the above areas and the need for the regulatory, business, technology entrepreneurs, knowledge and talent development communities, as well as civil society, to all work together to realize a sustainable energy future.
