Mapping Synergies & Trade-offs Between Energy and the Sustainable Development Goals
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a global plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. This paper presents a formative attempt by an interdisciplinary group of researchers, to identify the full range of goals and targets in the 2030 Agenda that call for changes in energy systems. It also attempts to characterize evidence of synergies or trade-offs between delivery of each of the 169 targets and efforts focused on pursuit of
SDG 7
and each of its constituent targets. The purpose of this Perspective is not to provide definitive answers. Instead this study aims to lay a foundation for systematic (and context-specific) exploration of the inter-linkages between each of the SDG targets, in the context of decision-making about development and the transformation of energy systems.
