This is a *very critical* year for aligning public resources with development and climate goals. Policy coherence and effective operationalization will be of absolute importance in 2025. Success won’t come from isolated tools like subsidies or regulations but from how well diverse measures interact to create synergies that amplify impact. As we’ve seen, the most effective results stem from clusters of policies working together, not from standalone efforts. 2025 is also a year to channel investments toward Emerging Markets and Developing Economies (EMDEs), where the energy transition faces its most critical challenges but also its greatest potential for transformative change. As we look ahead to key events like COP30 and the 4th Financing for Development Conference, the latest UNDP Sustainable Energy Hub bulletin outlines the trends, action steps, and expectations for advancing energy for development in 2025. 📌 Ground your discussions in actionable insights that can drive meaningful progress in this defining year!

2025 is shaping up to be the 'Year of Digital' in the energy transition, with AI and digitalization driving unprecedented innovation. From optimizing renewable energy systems to enabling smarter investment decisions, the potential is immense. However, as we accelerate these advancements, a critical question arises: how can we ensure the benefits of digital transformation are equitably distributed? The rapid rise of AI must be accompanied by inclusive governance, particularly in regions like sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia, where digital readiness lags. Let’s not just innovate—let’s innovate responsibly. Explore how we can balance progress with equity in our latest bulletin 👉 bit.ly/seh-bulletin-2025

Check out our take on what this year’s key priorities should be for meaningful progress in the global energy transition. As countries prepare their updated nationally determined contributions (NDCs) ahead of COP30 and with the G20 under South Africa's presidency seeking to secure agreement on mobilizing finance for a just energy transition, we have key opportunities in 2025 to move from intent to impactful action.

In two days, we will celebrate the 2nd International Day of Clean Energy. An occasion to reflect on what tranformative changes 2025 can bring for the just energy transition with the latest UNDP Sustainable Energy Bulletin. Amid what may have felt like a hectic and disorienting week for climate and clean energy, I want to share a few uplifting highlights from this bulletin: ☀️Clean energy investments exceeded $2 trillion in 2024, representing twice the investment in fossil fuels. ☀️Renewables accounted for 30% of global electricity in 2023, with solar power shining the brightest with 8.1%. ☀️Global battery storage capacity, crucial for the efficient deployment of renewables, increased by 136% in 2023 and is projected to grow tenfold by 2030. A huge thank you to the team who contributed to this bulletin and to all those working to make the world more sustainable and just. Read the latest bulletin here 👉 bit.ly/seh-bulletin-2025

As we stand on the brink of a new era, the role of digital technology in reducing emissions and promoting sustainable energy practices has never been more crucial. This is particularly true for the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, where organizations are striving to meet ambitious emissions targets. Today, digital technologies enable operators to quickly evaluate the economic and environmental impact of different processes, allowing for better, more informed decision-making in real time.  A new generation of innovations, enabled by digital technology, is also emerging to offer new solutions for everything — from clean energy generation to emissions mitigation. The GCC is uniquely positioned to leverage these technologies as it is advantageously located in areas of high-quality renewables — solar, wind and geothermal — and has a vibrant research environment.
