  • 26 June 2024

São Sepé, Brazil, recently joined ICLEI’s 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Energy Compact and became part of the broader 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Network

Enabling the just energy transition, São Sepé has engaged in several renewable energy initiatives. São Sepé’s case highlights the potential of local energy policies to lead communities toward climate neutrality while improving access to energy, as well as enhancing energy security and resilience.

São Sepé actively collaborates with stakeholders in the global sustainability space, paving the way to achieve net zero carbon emissions.

Joining the 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Energy Compact and the 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Network, São Sepé gains not only additional visibility but also access to resources, and opportunities for peer exchange and knowledge sharing. This strategic decision opens up exciting prospects that can help make São Sepé’s renewable energy transition a reality and position the city as a leader in the global sustainability space.

Through the Energy Compacts, launched at the United Nations High-Level Dialogue on Energy in September 2021, São Sepé will also be able to access the Energy Compact Action Network and other assistance from UN-Energy. This will allow for cooperation with other Energy Compacts, all with the interest in achieving SDG7 by 2030 and enhancing its energy action.
