With reference to the 'Global Renewables and Energy Efficiency Pledge' endorsed at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP28), consider the following statements:

1. It sets a global target to triple installed renewable energy capacity by 2030.
2. It calls for doubling the global average annual rate of energy efficiency improvements by 2030.

Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

  1. A
    1 only
  2. B
    2 only
  3. Both 1 and 2Cevap
  4. D
    Neither 1 nor 2

Cevap

Both 1 and 2 are correct.
Both statements are correct. At the COP28 UN Climate Change Conference held in Dubai, participating countries launched the Global Renewables and Energy Efficiency Pledge. The pledge sets two primary global benchmarks for 2030: tripling the total installed renewable energy capacity to at least 11,000 GW and doubling the global average annual rate of energy efficiency improvements from 2% to over 4%.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate Statement 1 regarding renewable energy targets.
The pledge commits signatories to tripling global installed renewable energy capacity to at least 11,000 GW by 2030, making statement 1 correct.
This is one of the two core quantitative targets agreed upon by over 120 participating nations at COP28 in Dubai.
2
Evaluate Statement 2 regarding energy efficiency targets.
The pledge requires doubling the global average annual rate of energy efficiency improvements from approximately 2% to over 4% per year through 2030, making statement 2 correct.
Energy efficiency doubling is paired with renewable energy expansion as twin pillars for global decarbonization.
3
Combine the evaluations to select the correct answer choice.
Since both statements 1 and 2 are correct, the choice indicating 'Both 1 and 2' is correct.
Matches standard State PSC multi-statement evaluation rules.
