"RETs" theme |
|
One of the main objectives of the Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) theme is to identify the contribution of RETs to poverty alleviation and the provision of concrete policy guidance and to identify and overcome previously identified barriers to RETs. Furthermore, it will provide a guide as to where and how to engage in the policy dialogue process. These outputs will be aimed at policy makers, decision makers, energy policy analysts, NGOs and researchers. The theme focus will include the full potential of renewable sources considering all objectives of energy policy and in all the sectors of energy consumption. As a first phase and in connection with the Access theme, focus will be put on poverty alleviation and will focus on both final and intermediate use of energy in the residential sector. It is expected that a second phase will address other productive uses of renewables and in a broader scope. Each of the 9 developing country Centres are currently finalizing their Initial Assessment Reports and final outcomes will be made available on this site as soon as they are available. Draft reports are currently uploaded to the Partners area of the GNESD Intranet for comments. The Theme coordinator is Gustavo Nadal of the Bariloche Foundation, Argentina. <gnadal@bariloche.com.ar>
