Скачать или смотреть OECD Foresight Forum 2022: Smart energy systems and networks

In May 2022, the OECD held the OECD Foresight Forum 2022: Smart energy systems and networks bringing together leading minds and varying perspectives on the opportunities and challenges countries face in creating smart energy systems and networks for a sustainable future. The idea that the transition to a green and digital future must go hand in hand, commonly referred to as the “twin transitions”, was a central part of the discussion.

Next month, OECD ministers will meet to discuss issues around the digital economy. The theme of the meeting is “Driving long-term recovery and economic growth by building a trusted, sustainable, and inclusive digital future”, and the twin transitions will be part of that discussion.

According to a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA), over half of the technological innovations required to meet the world’s growing energy needs have not yet been fully commercialised. Nonetheless, banking on the twin green and digital transitions makes sense: advancements in technology, innovation, and digitalisation are already delivering emissions reductions to transition to a net-zero carbon world.
