Energy trilemma: the framework for a more sustainable energy future
The energy world is at a tipping point. The myriad energy challenges the world faces are being addressed by the introduction, at an unprecedented rate, of new technologies and game-changing resources. However, there are three cornerstone issues that we must effectively tackle if a more sustainable energy mix is to be delivered: energy security, energy equity and environmental sustainability. At the World Energy Council, we call these challenges the‘ energy trilemma’.
