The STEPS Centre is contributing as a partner to the session Access to Energy: Beyond 2012 within the two-day IIED ‘Fair Ideas’ event.

This session will build on the outcomes of energy discussions through the day, drawing on conclusions from innovative delivery models, low carbon energy pathways, and feed in tariffs for energy access. A diverse panel will debate what really needs to be done to bring Sustainable Energy for All to national and local levels in a meaningful and inclusive way so as to significantly improve impacts for the poorest.

Speakers:

• Liz Carlile (IIED) – chair
• Anders Wijkman, (Club of Rome / Tällberg Foundation) – tbc
• Sheila Oparaocha (ENERGIA, Netherlands)
• Stefan Schurig (World Future Council, Germany)
• Michelle Pressend (Economic Justice Network, South Africa)
• Fabby Tumiwa (Institute for Essential Services Reform, Indonesia)
