Ngokusho U-Achim Steiner, owayengumqondisi omkhulu we Uhlelo lwe-UN Environment (UNEP), iSpain ibizoba umholi womhlaba emandleni avuselelekayo ukube ibingathintekanga inkinga yezomnotho eyaqala ngonyaka ka-2008. ISpain ithokozela ukukhanya kwelanga amahora amaningi ngosuku nesimo sezulu esomile esivumela ukusetshenziswa kwamandla elanga kakhulu. Ibuye ibe nokukhululeka kwezintaba okuvumela ukufakwa kwamapulazi omoya ukuthi kusizakale ngamandla omoya ukuphakama.
U-Achim Steiner ushiye i-UNEP kanti esinye sezitatimende zakhe zokugcina ukuthi iSpain ibingaba ngumholi ekusetshenzisweni kwamandla avuselelekayo kusukela kusondele Ama-40% wamandla akhiqizwa eSpain akhiqizwa ngemithombo evuselelekayo, umuntu osondelene nePortugal neDenmark. Lawa mazwe awubufakazi bokuthi amandla avuselelekayo aba yinjwayelo emhlabeni jikelele.
Siyazi ukuthi amandla avuselelekayo aya ngokuthuthuka emisha yamandla ngenxa yokuthi phakathi kwe- Ama-40% nama-50% otshalomali olusha okwenziwe eminyakeni yamuva ngamazwe emhlabeni wonke anikezelwe ekukhiqizeni amandla avuselelekayo, kungaba yilanga, umoya, i-geothermal, i-hydraulic, njll.
Inkinga yezemvelo njengokungcola nokuqedwa kwamafutha ezimbiwa kusebenza ukuchuma kwezomnotho ngenkathi kufakwa isandla ekunakekelweni nasekulondolozweni kwemvelo kanye nemithombo yemvelo. Ngokusho kukaSteiner, isinqumo seSpain sokuyeka ukuxhasa nokucwaninga ngamandla avuselelekayo konke kube yiphutha.
Emazweni afana ne-Afrika, amandla avuselelekayo abaluleke kakhulu ngoba ngenxa yawo izifunda eziningi zikwazile ukuzitholela ugesi okokuqala ngqa.
"Impikiswano yokuthi amazwe ampofu awakwazi "ukutshala imali kumandla avuselelekayo" ayimile. Iqiniso liyashintsha, noma ngabe uyizwe elithuthukile noma elithuthukayo. Kunezinselelo eziningi zezemvelo nezinsizakusebenza ezisiphoqelela ukuthi sisebenze njengomphakathi womhlaba wonke wezizwe nezomnotho.”. USteiner uthi.
Uyethemba futhi ukuthi eKenya, lapho ikomkhulu le-UNEP likhona, yize esekutholile izinkambu zikawoyela, siqhubeke nokubeka yonke imali ekuthuthukiseni nasekuthuthukiseni amandla avuselelekayo.
