GHD global report reveals clean energy can drive jobs and quality of life, but concerns remain over reliability and affordability
Global support for the clean energy transition remains strong, with most citizens across 10 countries believing that the transition to clean energy will foster jobs creation and improve quality of life.
The latest findings from GHD's CROSSROADS report reveal a clear willingness to adopt renewable energy initiatives, however, it also reveals significant concerns about the affordability, reliability, and understanding of clean energy, particularly among older generations.
"The energy transition is a once-in-a-generation reform," says Dr Tej Gidda, GHD’s Global Leader for Future Energy.
"It's not happening in a vacuum but alongside other critical infrastructure and societal shifts. As we move forward, there is a responsibility to not just benefit from the gains but to leave a lasting, sustainable legacy for future generations.
