Sustainable energy production has a major impact on the climate, which is why energy efficiency is to be increased and the share of renewable energy expanded. International cooperation is to be strengthened to facilitate access to research and new technologies. Investments in these areas are to be promoted. Investments in the modernisation and expansion of infrastructure should also be promoted.

Current situation:

Worldwide: Today, 90% of the world's population has access to electricity. The remaining 10% often live in rural conflict and crisis areas. Progress is difficult here.Tracking SDG 7: The energy progress report 2021
