Action Towards 2025 delivers on commitments made at a high-level meeting in September that laid out a global roadmap for energy access and transition by the end of the decade, while also contributing to net zero emissions by 2050.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The UN-Energy partnership brings together some 30 organizations working on all aspects of energy and sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An Energy Compact Action Network was also launched to match governments seeking support for their clean energy goals with governments and businesses that have already pledged over $600 billion in assistance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Coalitions to support energy access and transition in Nigeria and in Santiago, Chile, were also announced, thus showcasing the Network\u2019s potential.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Sustaining the momentum <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The commitments will drive forward achievement of a just, inclusive energy transition, aimed at ensuring all people have access to clean and affordable energy, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Their announcement comes as the world faces what the UN has described as the interlinked triple crises of energy, food and finance arising from the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Liu Zhenmin, head of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) and Secretary-General of the 2021 High-level Dialogue on Energy, has welcomed the launch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis will help us sustain the momentum by generating concrete action towards clean and affordable energy and net-zero emissions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Scaling up action <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The UN-Energy Plan of Action sets out a framework for collective action that includes doubling annual clean energy investment globally, and facilitating electricity access for 500 million people, as well as clean cooking solutions for one billion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It identifies seven areas for work, ranging from scaling up efforts to close the energy access gap, to leveraging the power of data, digitalisation and visualisation for strengthening monitoring, tracking, accountability and communication of results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The plan could not have come at a more critical time, according to Achim Steiner, Administrator of the UN Development Programme (UNDP) and the UN-Energy co-chair.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe current context has led to a wider understanding of how energy underpins the entire 2030 Agenda.\u202fIt is paramount that the commitments taken at the 2021 High-Level Dialogue on Energy and COP26 are translated into actions on the ground &#8211; especially in support of the most vulnerable,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Collaborating for transformation <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">UN-Energy will support the Energy Compact Action Network, which brings together nearly 200 governments, businesses, and other civil society partners, to mobilize voluntary commitments made at the high-level dialogue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Damilola Ogunbiyi, the Secretary-General\u2019s Special Representative for Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) and UN-Energy co-chair, highlighted the platform\u2019s important role.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cBy creating opportunities for collaboration, the Network will transform the billions of dollars in finance and investment committed in the Energy Compacts into on-the-ground action towards the sustainable energy future that we urgently need,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Source:
