Energy
The OECD Green Growth Strategy aims to provide concrete recommendations and measurement
tools, including indicators, to support countries’ efforts to achieve economic growth
and development, while ensuring that natural assets continue to provide the resources
and environmental services on which well-being relies. The strategy proposes a flexible
policy framework that can be tailored to different country circumstances and stages
of development. This report was coordinated with the International Energy Agency (IEA).
This report looks at the role of the energy sector in moving towards a green growth
model and the policies to facilitate the transition. Together with innovation, going
green can be a long-term driver for economic growth, through, for example, investing
in renewable energy and improved efficiency in the use of energy and materials.
