Sustainable, clean, reliable, egalitarian, modern, secure©] ENERGY for ALL.
WE MUST ACT NOW
Unless we act now, the 2030 Agenda will become an epitaph for a world that might have been.
António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations The UN Sustainable Development Goals Report 2023 exasperatedly proclaim:
1. “Promise in peril: Leave no one behind. … But halfway to 2030, that promise is in peril. The SDGs are disappearing in the rear-view mirror, … . A fundamental shift is needed commitment, solidarity, financing and action … . And it is needed now.”
2. “Achieving SDG7 [Sustainable Development Goals for energy, with its targets on universal access, … will open a new world of opportunity for billions of people.” “It will lay the foundation for the eradication of poverty, … .” “Simply put, without progress on SDG73, it will be impossible to achieve the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement.” UN Deputy Secretary General Amina Mohammed. Finding the crux of the UN’s “a fundamental shift is needed” conundrum, is actually in stark view:
- The UN Sustainable Development Goal for Energy (SDG7) has the 2030 objective of delivering “affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all”; meaning everybody living on the planet, internationally per capita, and their loved pets too. For ALL is to leave no one behind!
- For ALL, to leave no one behind – focusing on exactly what the size of this task really is: Whereas, the WBG5 2024 Reports that the number of people living on less than $6.85 per day has remained unchanged over the past 30 years, graphically showing the world has 3.6 billion of poor at $6.85 per day, and including 1.8 billion at $3.65 per day, with nearly 700 million at $2.15 per day.
- The glaring miss-match: If our fundamental shift doesn’t see the light of day, then by 2030, the absolute minimum required to supply grid energy per median household (3.45 members) will cost >28¢ per kWh, without global governmental subsidies, to deliver all the SDG7 aims, for just the minimum6 of 36.72 kWh per day, costing $10.28 per day. Clearly, not for the WBG’s 3.6 billion poor in the world today. Some others say it is 2 billion± more, who don’t have enough power, and/or today’s power is unaffordable, so are forced into “heat or eat” choices. Addendum 4: min. SDG7 kWh/median household – 2030
Screems is now gearing up on a war production footing to deliver the UN’s “NEEDS”

The UN has a massive conundrum: “a fundamental shift is needed” – “And it is needed now” 1 & 2 “Unless we act now, the 2030 Agenda will become an epitaph for a world that might have been.” António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations
A FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT IS NEEDED
The UN has a massive conundrum: “a fundamental shift is needed” – “And it is needed now”¹ & ² “Unless we act now, the 2030 Agenda will become an epitaph for a world that might have been.”
António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations
Screems will deliver the fundamental shift that is needed now, by Eradicating Iniquitous Energy© (EIE©).
Deliverable N° 1:
The mass manufacturing and deployment of 3 billion Major Appliance Power Stations© (MAPS©); the standard of UN Sustainable Development Goal for energy (SDG7)³ for ALL, to be deployed in all households and MSME (Dwellings) generating all in-house power and energy totally off grid forever.
Deliverable N° 2:
The Screems EIE Programme is delivered to all 201 sovereign countries in the UN Climate Change National Determined Contributions (NDC Registry)⁴, for all households, MSMEs and other Dwellings worldwide, circa 3 billion today, embedded in each country’s NDC commitment to climate change.
Deliverable N° 3:
The reason why ALL Dwellings will adapt to MAPS units on their government’s say-so, is no capital cost for MAPS, as MAPS are licensed and installed free with no charge whatsoever, and,
- Category One: for all those suffering energy poverty, both absolute and relative, no charge of any kWh consumed guaranteed for 10 years, also with replacement at end-of-efficient-life MAPS unit.
- Category Two: For all those that don’t qualify in Category One, maximum charge of only 5¢ per kWh consumed, also guaranteed for 10 years, also with replacement at end-of-efficient-life MAPS unit.
Deliverable N° 4:
Screems Energy also delivers, elimination of energy poverty in countries and converts the ever-increasing annual GtCO2eq⁵ MAPS saves, to carbon credits, well in excess of $2 Trillion by 2031.
Deliverable N° 5:
Combined 3 billion MAPS deployed to plan worldwide will achieve CO2 emission less than net zero annually by 2030 over all GHG types, from just MAPS, all thanks to globally installing MAPS in-house. Whereas, the 2030 forecast without that fundamental shift for GHG is projected to be 37.4GtCO2eq.
Ready to go:
Screems Energy already has 6 NDC country commitments to install circa 134.6 million MAPS units from 2026 to complete by end 2028, and expecting 54 added country commitments by end of 2025.

How Much Energy Does a Household Need by 2030?
By 2030, the average household (around 3-4 people) will need about 36.72 kWh of electricity per day to meet modern living standards.
Where Does All This Energy Go?
- Lighting – 10 bulbs: 1,080 Wh/day
- Kitchen appliances – fridge, oven, microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher: 9,883 Wh/day
- Cooling & heating – fans and heating (for 4 months a year): 8,625 Wh/day
- Laundry & cleaning – washing machine, dryer, vacuum cleaner: 8,150 Wh/day
- Entertainment & electronics – TVs, computers, radios: 4,780 Wh/day
- Water heating – 2,112 Wh/day
- Electric vehicle (small family car, 9.3 km/day): 2,313 Wh/day
- Standby power & small devices – clocks, chargers, miscellaneous: 377 Wh/day
The Cost of Power
- Electricity price per kWh: $0.28
- Daily cost: $10.28
- Monthly cost: $312.73
Annual cost: $3,752.71
Can Everyone Afford This?
Not really. In many parts of the world, a typical household earns about $13.70 per day (two adults making $6.85 each). That means:
🔴 Electricity alone would take up 75% of their daily income—leaving little for food, housing, or other essentials.
Even worse:
- 3.6 billion people earn less than $6.85 per day.
- 1.8 billion people live on $3.65 per day.
- 700 million people survive on just $2.15 per day.
For these billions of people, affording reliable electricity is impossible without major policy changes.
What Needs to Change?
💡 The current energy system is too expensive for the world’s poorest—it needs a serious rethink.
💡 Governments and global organizations must find ways to lower costs and expand energy access.
💡 Renewable energy could help, but investment and infrastructure are key challenges.
💡 Without big reforms, SDG7 (universal energy access by 2030) is just not realistic.
Bottom line? Electricity is essential, but for billions, it’s still a luxury. Something has to change.
THE PURPOSE BEHIND THIS MESSAGE
The Climate Change world says everybody must have:
- energy that is affordable for ALL
- energy that is modern for ALL, and for ALL means leaves no one behind.
- So, what is “modern” by 2030?
- answer, every that is listed in the table on page 33: and that is the minimum (not the average) for the least amount of energy to be modern by 2030
- and it still must be afford for ALL.
Critical absolute minimum measures and standards are: (changes to be made in your draft because it is out of sync with “our” fundamental shift that “we” will deliver and nobody else can, because we provide the finance, the technology, the affordability for everybody in the world, that nobody else will …
- 3.45 persons per average household in the world, not (around 3 – 4 people) – World bank figure is 3.45 and we are dealing with the IFC, a World Bank group member.
- if our fundamental shift doesn’t see the light of day … “our” meaning only Screems’s fundamental shift. We are not asking anybody else to do this, just Screems to do this fundamental shift.
