Introduction

'Transforming Our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development' was adopted at the UN Summit for Sustainable Development on 25 September 2015. The agenda includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change by 2030.

The SDGs build on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), eight anti-poverty targets that the world committed to achieving by 2015.

In the Preamble of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development it is stated:

"This Agenda is a plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. It also seeks to strengthen universal peace in larger
freedom. We recognise that eradicating poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest global challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable development."^[1]

Indicator Development and Global Reporting Mechanism

Indicator Tiers

Based on their level of methodological development and overall data availability, the indicators are grouped into three different tiers:

A first tier for which an established methodology exists and data are regularly produced by countries (tier I);
A second tier for which a methodology has been established but for which data are not regularly produced by countries / easily available (tier II);
A third tier for which an internationally agreed methodology has not yet been developed (tier III)

By end of July 2016 it is planned to have the initial tier system finalized.^[2]

Reporting

Data collection and reporting will be carried out as follows:

Countries will provide their national data and metadata to international agencies, coordinated by the national statistical office, and facilitated as appropriate, by regional mechanisms;
International agencies will provide global and regional aggregates and accompanying metadata to UNSD for use in the annual progress report and inclusion in the SDG indicator database;
International agencies will provide country level data and accompanying metadata to UNSD for inclusion in a SDG indicator database, which will be used during the preparation of the annual SDG progress report and to monitor indicator 17.18.1^[3]

Goal 7 on Energy in Detail

With Goal 7 energy is finally being recognized as a key enabler for development. Universal access to energy, a higher share of renewable energy and massive improvements in energy efficiency are now part of the top global priorities for sustainable development in the years to come.

Goal 7. Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all^[4]

7.1 By 2030, ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services
- Indicator 7.1.1 Percentage of the population with access to electricity
- Indicator 7.1.2 Proportion of population with primary reliance on clean fuels and technology (“Clean” is defined by the emission rate targets and specific fuel recommendations included in the normative guidance WHO guidelines for indoor air quality: household fuel combustion)^[5].

7.2 By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix
- Indicator 7.2.1: Renewable energy share in the total final energy consumption

7.3 By 2030, double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency
- Indicator 7.3.1: Energy intensity measured in terms of primary energy and GDP

7.a By 2030, enhance international cooperation to facilitate access to clean energy research and technology, including renewable energy, energy efficiency and advanced and cleaner fossil-fuel technology, and promote investment in energy infrastructure and clean energy technology
- Indicator 7.a.1: Mobilized amount of United States dollars per year starting in 2020 accountable towards the $100 billion commitment (no information on definition, rationale, data collection, etc. available as of 30 March 2016).

7.b By 2030, expand infrastructure and upgrade technology for supplying modern and sustainable energy services for all in developing countries, in particular least developed countries, small island developing States, and land-locked developing countries, in accordance with their respective programmes of support.
- Indicator 7.b.1: Investments in energy efficiency as a percentage of GDP and the amount of foreign direct investment in financial transfer for infrastructure and technology to sustainable development services (no information on definition, rationale, data collection, etc. available as of 30 March 2016).

The SE4ALL Global Tracking Framework provides more details on the suggested methodology for tracking access to energy and data already collected.^[6]

Energy and other SDGs

Explicit Mentions

Besides SDG 7 there are other SDGs in which energy-related issues are mentioned explicitly:

Goal 4

Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all

Target 4.a: Build and upgrade education facilities that are child, disability and gender sensitive and provide safe, non-violent, inclusive and effective learning environments for all
- Indicator 4.a.1: Proportion of schools with access to: (a) electricity; (b) the Internet for pedagogical purposes; (c) computers for pedagogical purposes; (d) adapted infrastructure and materials for students with disabilities; (e) basic drinking water; (f) single-sex basic sanitation facilities; and (g) basic handwashing facilities (as per the WASH indicator definitions)^[7]

Goal 12

Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

12.c Rationalize inefficient fossil-fuel subsidies that encourage wasteful consumption by removing market distortions, in accordance with national circumstances, including by restructuring taxation and phasing out those harmful subsidies, where they exist, to reflect their environmental impacts, taking fully into account the specific needs and conditions of developing countries and minimizing the possible adverse impacts on their development in a manner that protects the poor and the affected communities.
- Indicator 12.c.1 Amount of fossil-fuel subsidies per unit of GDP (production and consumption) and as a proportion of total national expenditure on fossil fuels.^[8]

Implicit Contribution and Impact of Energy to other SDGs

Energy access, renewable energy, energy efficiency and other energy-related issues are contributing to the achievement of other SDGs, although energy might not have been mentioned explicitly in targets or indicators.

The following is a list, with first explanations and possible impacts. Please feel free to elaborate on further points.

Goal 1

End poverty in all its forms everywhere

Impacts of renewable / clean / efficient energy:

Production and commercialisation of efficient stoves as well as the rise of the renewables sector (sale, installation, services e.g. of solar panels, pico PV lamps etc) creates jobs and small business and thus leads to income generation for both women and men. Furthermore, families save money due to reduced fuel demand.

(check for Indicator 1.4.1 which is still under development: Proportion of the population living in households with access to basic services)

Goal 2

End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture

Although there is no mention of energy in targets nor in indicators, energy plays a vital role to ending hunger, improving nutrition, and increasing agricultural productivity in a sustainable way.

Targets^[8]	Indicators^[8]	Relevance of energy
2.1: By 2030, end hunger and ensure access by all people, in particular the poor and people in vulnerable situations, including infants, to safe, nutritious and sufficient food all year round	2.1.1 Prevalence of undernourishment 2.1.2 Prevalence of moderate or severe food insecurity in the population, based on the Food Insecurity Experience Scale (FIES)	95% of staple foods needs to be cooked before they can be eaten^[9]. Not only in humanitarian settings like refugee camps the supply with sufficient cooking fuels is of high relevance to enable people to prepare their meals. Furthermore, improved access to efficient technologies and fuels makes the preparation of more nutritious food that needs to be cooked for a long time (e.g. beans) more likely.
2.3 By 2030, double the agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers, in particular women, indigenous peoples, family farmers, pastoralists and fishers, including through secure and equal access to land, other productive resources and inputs, knowledge, financial services, markets and opportunities for value addition and non-farm employment	2.3.1 Volume of production per labour unit by classes of farming/pastoral/forestry enterprise size 2.3.2*Total Factor Productivity	To increasing agricultural productivity, energy for irrigation is needed as well as for cooling, drying, milling, pasteurizing, and further processing.
2.4 By 2030, ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and production, that help maintain ecosystems, that strengthen capacity for adaptation to climate change, extreme weather, drought, flooding and other disasters and that progressively improve land and soil quality	2.4.2^[10] Percentage of agricultural households using irrigation systems compared to all agricultural households	Almost all irrigation systems need energy to pumping water.

Goal 3

Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages

Impacts of renewable / clean / efficient energy:

Clean / improved technologies and fuels for cooking, heating and lighting emit less particulate matter (PM) and carbon monoxide (CO), thus reducing the risk of respiratory diseases and eye infections, especially in women and in children under five years. Furthermore, by replacing traditional cooking and lighting technologies (e.g. open fires and kerosene lamps) with improved cookstoves which shield the fire and solar lanterns, the risk of burns, injuries and fires is reduced.

When it comes to a functioning health system, energy is a key component: vaccines and medicines need to be refrigerated, equipement need sterilisation and light is needed for operations and emergencys at night.

Targets^[8]	Indicators^[8]	Relevance of clean energy
Target 3.2 By 2030, end preventable deaths of newborns and children under 5 years of age (...)	3.2.1 Under -5 mortality rate (deaths per 1,000 live births)	Over half of deaths among children less than 5 years old from acute lower respiratory infections (ALRI) are due to particulate matter inhaled from indoor air pollution from household solid fuels^[11]
Target 3.4 By 2030, reduce by one third premature mortality from non-communicable diseases through prevention and treatment and promote mental health and well-being	3.4.1: Mortality of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes or chronic respiratory disease	According to WHO, 3.8 million premature deaths annually from noncommunicable diseases including stroke, ischaemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer are attributed to exposure to household air pollution.^[11]
Target 3.9: By 2030, substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination	3.9.1: Mortality rate attributed to household and ambient air pollution	According to WHO smoke from traditional cooking technologies causes 4.3 million premature deaths per year.^[11]

Goal 4
