Представитель Минэнерго сообщила, что сегодня в топливно-энергетическом балансе России более 60% приходится на долю безуглеродных или низкоуглеродных источников энергии. В части электроэнергетического баланса 75% выработки электроэнергии уже осуществляется на источниках с низкой удельной эмиссией парниковых газов, в том числе на атомных и гидроэлектростанциях. «По сути, топливно-энергетический и электроэнергетические балансы нашей страны уже сегодня соответствуют логике низкоуглеродного будущего», - заключила Анастасия Бондаренко.

The UN estimates that achieving the SDGs could generate some $12 trillion of value across the global economy, and create 380 million new jobs by 2030. But realizing this objective will take annual investments, across all sectors, of $5-7 trillion: currently, investment levels are falling far below that level.

the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects that world energy consumption will grow by nearly 50% between 2018 and 2050. Most of this growth comes from countries that are not in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and this growth is focused in regions where strong economic growth is driving demand, particularly in Asia.

The U.S. solar energy industry will add an additional 113,000 jobs and generate $87 billion in investment over the next decade if U.S. lawmakers extend the sector’s key tax credit, a report published on Tuesday said.

"Currently, we are meeting more than 30% of the electricity through renewable energy," Erdoğan explained, as he vowed to boost the current rate to 39% by 2023.

Speaking at the beginning of the UN’s Climate Action Summit on Monday, the 16-year-old acclaimed climate activist Greta Thunberg, was unsparing in her criticism of world leaders, telling them that they are still “not mature enough to tell it like it is”.

Накануне Саммита премьер-министр Дмитрий Медведев сообщил о подписании постановления Правительства РФ «О принятии Парижского соглашения». Россия подписала Парижское соглашение в 2016 году и участвует в переговорном процессе в рамках Специальной Рабочей группы по Парижскому соглашению на площадке Рамочной конвенции ООН об изменении климата (РКИК ООН).

The UN has said its goal for the summit is to bring forward what organizers have called "concrete plans and strategies" to bring about carbon neutrality by 2050.

“Stabilizing the climate is urgent, nuclear power is slow,” said Mycle Schneider, lead author of the report. “It meets no technical or operational need that low-carbon competitors cannot meet better, cheaper and faster.”

Our latest agreements will also spur the construction of more than $2 billion in new energy infrastructure, including millions of solar panels and hundreds of wind turbines spread across three continents. In all, our renewable energy fleet now stands at 52 projects, driving more than $7 billion in new construction and thousands of related jobs.

In a statement today at the UN Secretary-General’s Climate Action Summit in New York, nine multilateral development banks (MDBs) announced plans to increase the global climate action investments they support each year to US$ 175 billion by 2025.

After stalling last year, global capacity additions of renewable power are set to bounce back with double-digit growth in 2019, driven by solar PV’s strong performance,

The funds will invest 350 billion Danish crowns ($52 billion) in energy infrastructure, green stocks and bonds and energy efficient construction up to 2030, Danish pensions industry association Insurance and Pension Denmark said in a statement.

Energy ministers from across Central Asia committed their countries to collaborating on meeting the United Nations' seventh Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), which pledges 'affordable and clean energy' by 2030. The meeting is the first time they have come together to discuss the region's common energy challenges.
