The Energy Transitions Commission's flagship report sets out achievable pathways to limit global warming to well below 2C while stimulating economic development and social progress.

Simultaneously, we must ensure economic economic development and access to affordable, sustainable and reliable energy for all, particularly in developing countries.

According to the Better Energy, Greater Prosperity report, this is achievable – but business, government and investors must act now to accelerate clean electrification, decarbonization beyond power and energy productivity improvement.
