Readiness for Investment in Sustainable Energy (RISE), developed by the World Bank Group, is a suite of indicators that assesses the legal and regulatory environment for investment in sustainable energy.

It establishes a framework for better depicting the national enabling environment to attract investment into sustainable energy.


RISE is aimed at policymakers who focus on actions within their control. Creating this
environment is directed by policymakers—the primary constituency RISE aims to influence.


RISE supports the achievement of the objectives of the Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL) initiative.

▪️The Ecological Footprint is a resource accounting tool that measures how much biologically productive land and sea is used by a given population or activity, and compares this to how much land and sea is available.

▪️Productive land and sea areas support human demands for food, fibre, timber, energy, and space for infrastructure.

▪️Ecological Footprint accounts answer a specific research question: how much of the biological capacity of the planet is demanded by a given human activity or population

▪️Ecological Footprints can be calculated for individual people, groups of people (such as a nation), and activities (such as manufacturing a product).
