Zakynthos

Zakynthos or Zante is a Greek island in the Ionian Sea. It is the third largest of the Ionian Islands, with an area of 405.55 km2 (156.6 sq mi),[5] and a coastline 123 km (76 mi) in length. Like all similar names ending in -nthos, the name is pre-Mycenaean or Pelasgian in origin. In Greek mythology, the island was said to be named after Zacynthus, the son of the legendary Arcadian chief Dardanus. Zakynthos is a tourist destination, especially amongst British tourists, with an international airport served by charter flights from northern Europe. The island's nickname is "the Flower of the Levant", bestowed upon it by the Venetians, who ruled Zakynthos from 1484 to 1797.

Annual energy-related CO2 emissions need to decline 70% below today's levels by 2050 to set the world on a pathway toward meeting the climate goals. Renewables, energy efficiency and substantial electrification can provide over 90% of the necessary reduction. In partnership with governments, multilateral agencies, the donor community, the private sector, philanthropy and civil society, we build capacity to support interventions with a clear potential to accelerate the achievement of SDG7 and that are aligned with the Paris Agreement and NDCs targets. To do so, we work to modernize the energy infrastructure, through innovation and new business models. This will be accompanied by suitable financial mechanisms and policy de-risking approaches to channel public and private climate finance where it is most needed and impactful and offer a platform for honest dialogues and advice.
