Developing rural energy sources
- Undertaking development of rural energy sources
- Accelerating rural energy transition to increase productivity
Description
Developing rural energy sources involves implementing practical solutions to provide reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy in rural areas. This strategy focuses on deploying decentralized technologies such as solar, wind, biogas, and micro-hydro systems to address energy poverty, reduce dependence on traditional biomass, and support local economic development. By improving access to modern energy, it remedies health risks from indoor air pollution, enhances educational opportunities, and fosters community resilience and productivity.
Implementation
This strategy features in the framework of Agenda 21 as formulated at UNCED (Rio de Janeiro, 1992), now coordinated by the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development and implemented through national and local authorities.
