World Energy Trilemma

The World Energy Council is the largest global network of energy leaders and practitioners dedicated to delivering a sustainable energy system for the greatest benefit of all.

The World Energy Council’s definition of energy sustainability is based on three core dimensions – energy security, energy equity, and environmental sustainability. These three goals constitute a ‘trilemma’, entailing complex interwoven links between public and private actors, governments and regulators, economic and social factors, national resources, environmental concerns, and individual behaviours.

Delivering policies which simultaneously address energy security, universal access to affordable energy services, and environmentally sensitive production and use of energy is one of the most formidable challenges facing government and industry. The ‘Energy Trilemma’ provides a clear framework to deliver the energy transformation and make sustainable energy systems a reality.

This event will be held in the Beckit Room in the School of Geography and the Environment at 5.30pm. Entry is £2 for non-members and free for members and the talk will be followed by free pizza and drinks!
