General
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are 17 interlinked global goals set by the United Nations for 2030, aiming to address issues like poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation. Several SDGs relate directly to renewable energy and sustainable finance, such as SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), which promotes universal access to modern energy and a substantial increase in the share of renewables, and SDG 13 (Climate Action), which calls for urgent action to combat climate change. Investors and companies often align projects with SDGs to demonstrate positive environmental and social impact. For example, investing in solar projects contributes to SDG 7 and SDG 13 by expanding clean energy access and reducing emissions.
