About
Fund scope Energy is inextricably linked to climate change and many other SDGs, including poverty eradication, food security, health, education, prosperity, gender equality, jobs, transport, ocean, water and sanitation, and the empowerment of women and youth. However, without urgent action the world will fall short of SDG7 achievement as close to 800 million people still lack access to electricity at present, and three billion people do not have clean cooking solutions (which disproportionally affects women). Although the investment in renewables is expected to outpace those in fossil fuel by a wide margin, notwithstanding the fallout linked to COVID-19, greater efforts are needed since renewables continue to lag behind in industries like transport, resource extraction, heating and cooling. Progress around the world has largely been uneven, with “energy poverty” prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, and global energy-related activity being responsible for more than two-thirds of global greenhouse gas emissions. The Global Sustainable Development Report (GSDR) 2019 identified “energy decarbonization with universal access” as one of the entry points that offer the most promise for transforming sustainable development at the necessary scale and speed required to achieve. The UN-Energy MPTF, inspired by the Sustainable Energy for All fund, is designed to support activities aimed at accelerating progress towards SDG7 and 2030 Agenda—in line with Paris Agreement commitments. The MPTF supports UN-driven energy activities that strengthen political will, increase energy investments, broaden existing networks, and scale-up multi-stakeholder partnerships. Strategic framework Achieving SDG 7 requires catalyzing strong climate action and supporting the achievement of other SDGs. Stakeholder action needs to be accelerated in support of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Paris Agreement throughout the Decade of Action, following recommendations that come out of the Climate Action Summit follow-up and 2021 High-level Dialogue on Energy. To increase the speed and level of engagement and commitment around SDG 7 the UN-Energy MPTF has two clearly defined funding windows that support UN action at the global and country levels.
Governance arrangements
Focus on impact and results Under the direction the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for the Sustainable Energy for All fund and UNDP Administrator, the UN-Energy MPTF supports activities that accelerate progress towards SDG7 and 2030 Agenda achievement. Results are aligned with UN-Energy work plan priorities for 2021/2022, national frameworks, and Paris Agreement commitments. Recent Documents
