The paper focuses on BRICS countries' energy policies, as they are promising emerging economies and also some of the largest countries in the world, which together account for almost 40% of the world’s population. In addition, the energy sector has a strong importance for these countries. BRICS countries are an intrinsic part of the global efforts and the overall result of 2030 and beyond. This paper will analyze: How have BRICS nations been addressing environmental issues in their energy policies and strategies? What are their goals and pledges? To what extent have they met their established goals? And how much further – within possible – have they yet to go?
