Abstract

The development of human society has been marked all throughout history by the role of energy resources. The importance of energy in the global scenario has constantly risen and the interconnections with the environment and society have become more evident. The need to fight both poverty through eradication of energy insufficiency and to increase access to modern energy service is recognized worldwide. The designation of Year 2012 as the International Year for Sustainable Energy for All and the subsequent Sustainable Energy for All initiative [1] promoted by the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to foster access to energy, energy efficiency and renewable energies has raised awareness in the international agenda on these issues and has opened a wide window on the problem for the coming decades. The size of the problem and some of the key challenges are discussed in the chapter.
