SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy

Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7) is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015. The official wording of SDG 7 is: “Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.”  Access to clean and affordable energy is key to economic growth, social development, and environmental protection.
