GEAPP Leadership Council

CURRENT INITIATIVE

Overview

The GEAPP Leadership Council (GLC) is a platform to galvanize collective action on a more ambitious and inclusive global renewable energy agenda, supporting the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) to deliver optimum impact.

Co-chaired by Jonas Gahr Støre, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Norway, and Dr. Rajiv J. Shah, President of The Rockefeller Foundation, the GLC is a high-level coalition of over two dozen global leaders. Members include national development banks, NGOs, corporate executives, and government representatives.

Lack of access to affordable, reliable energy hinders all other development outcomes, including health, education, livelihoods, women’s empowerment, and job creation.

The work of the GLC focuses on tackling energy poverty and climate change together. On April 18, 2023, the group committed to two bold initiatives to drive down the cost of renewable energy and transform the landscape for energy technologies in low-and-middle income countries. More recently, the Council has committed support towards the World Bank and the African Development Bank in their ambitious effort to provide at least 300 million people in Africa with electricity access by 2030.

Initiatives

  • Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
    The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Consortium was created to scale battery energy storage in low-and-middle-income countries, with the goal of galvanizing 10GWh in commitments in national energy roadmaps and policies by the end of 2024.
  • Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE)
    A distributed renewable energy (DRE) scale-up initiative was formed to aggregate financing and procurement support for DRE systems, with the goal of enabling $1B in orders by the end of 2024.

Why it Matters

Energy poverty currently afflicts nearly half of humanity.
  •  
    0MillionMillion

    people still lack energy access in 2024

  •  
    0MillionMillion

    people need to be connected every year until 2030 in order to achieve full access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy

  •  
    0%%

    of global emissions could come from low- and middle-income countries by 2050 if they rely on fossil fuels to meet their growing electricity needs
