ISES Continues Work on the Global100RE Executive Committee
The Global 100% Renewable Energy Platform (Global100RE) recently held its annual General Assembly in a virtual setting, gathering members from around the globe. Here, the Platform’s new Executive Committee was elected, and the members discussed the future strategy of the Platform, as well as their potential contribution in this collaborative umbrella organization.
The Platform was founded ten years ago as a campaign with the goal to bring 100% renewable energy to the global agenda and make 100% renewable energy the new normal. Today, Global100RE brings together key non-governmental stakeholders working in all areas of energy and climate. Members include non-governmental organisations (NGOs) representing civil society, subnational governments, renewable energy, climate, and science.
During the Global100RE General Assembly, the Global100RE members elected the new Executive Committee and Co-chairs for a two years term:
- Stefan Gsänger, World Wind Energy Association (WWEA)
- Tetsu Iida, Institute for Sustainable Energy Policies (ISEP)
- Janet Milongo, CAN International
- Dave Renne, International Solar Energy Society (ISES)
- Maryke van Staden, ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI)
On behalf of ISES, ISES Past President Dave Renné is looking forward to continuing this important collaboration to achieve a successful renewable energy transition.
