Presentation and panel discussion of the very latest new scenario work relating to energy for all in the context of global sustainability. The side event is centered around three just published global studies and will be followed by a panel discussion with a number of leading development thinkers globally who will reflect on implications in terms of sustainable development goals, including social, environmental and economic aspects, as well as the governance frameworks required from local to subnational levels to shape the future.

The work will feed directly into the discussions about how sustainable energy can be represented in the follow up of the Rio outcomes, including the work on formulating sustainable development goals. In particular, it will discuss how international goals of environmental and resource sustainability, efficiency and energy access can be reconciled and made coherent over the long term, and what types of governance and institutional frameworks will be required at the international level.
