Why do we need a climate resilient Department?
By creating a more climate resilient Department, DOE can then build a more climate-ready energy system that ensures clean, affordable, and reliable energy, and promotes energy and environmental justice and well-paying jobs. Thereby, increasing the nation’s energy security and helping to create a sustainable clean energy economy.
Why do we need energy communities?
This combined with consumer demands for control over their energy systems has created energy communities (ECs) on the agenda hence higher opportunities for transition towards more sustainable energy through improvement in efficiency, less emissions, reduced costs, and hence a sustainable energy future.
Why is electricity important for socioeconomic development?
Electricity as a form of energy is extremely important for socioeconomic development. Global electricity generation stood at 4,114 GW in 2005 and increased to 5,699.3 GW in 2014 and it continues to grow annually. Fossil fuel-based electricity accounted for over 60% of this generation in 2014 and 42% of CO 2.
Which energy sources should be the basis of sustainable electricity transition?
Low carbon nuclear and renewable energy sources which should be the basis of the sustainable electricity transition accounted for about 38% of global electricity with undefined sources accounting for about 0.7% of the global electricity generation in the year 2020. TABLE 3. The global electricity generation can be summarized in Table 3 below.
