BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 7. In her speech at
the ‘Energy Transition’ thematic session in the format of the 30th
session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework
Convention on Climate Change (COP30), Speaker of the Milli Majlis
Sahiba Gafarova also spoke about the work being done in our country
to raise the renewable energy generation and about the successes
achieved, Trend
reports.
She said that Azerbaijan, whilst implementing a clean energy
policy consistently, is increasing the share of renewable sources
in her energy balance, with our country becoming one of the leading
states in the development of renewable energy.
It was observed that by 2030, it is planned to ensure that
approximately 40 per cent of the energy produced in our country is
obtained from renewable sources.
The Speaker of Parliament remarked that these investment
commitments in the area of clean energy, undertaken despite our
rich traditional energy resources, demonstrate our country’s
determination to build a low-carbon future.
According to Sahiba Gafarova, Azerbaijan also plays a leading
role in setting new standards for defining clean energy development
zones.
The emergence of the Green Energy Zone on our liberated
territories, which were under occupation for almost thirty years
and lay in ruins, is a vivid example of the strategic vision for
sustainable restoration and regional transformation.
