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 ’.
