• Successful implementation of the Strategy requires Arab states to engage in short- to medium-term national RE planning, reporting and evaluation

NREAP is an implementation tools for the Pan-Arab RE Strategy

Although there are many opportunities for concrete projects in sustainable energy in Arab countries, they

remain largely untapped

Page 22: Towards a Unified Guideline for Renewable Energy Planning ... · Q2, 2015: Template for progress monitoring and evaluation finalised Q3, 2015: Completed NREAP communicated to LAS

Barriers to Scale Up of Investment

• At all levels of the existence of these commercially viable opportunities

Low awareness

• To demonstrate the potential of these opportunities

Few success stories

• About the risk profiles and potential benefits of these technologies

Insufficient information

• That meet the three A’s (Appropriate, accessible, affordable)

Few financing options

• To assess markets and create business models

Weak local capacity

The Way Forward: The Integrated Approach

Page 24: Towards a Unified Guideline for Renewable Energy Planning ... · Q2, 2015: Template for progress monitoring and evaluation finalised Q3, 2015: Completed NREAP communicated to LAS

24

The Integrated Approach

• To identify concrete, commercially viable opportunities in sustainable energy in the region

• To promote these opportunities with the public and private sectors through targeted awareness building campaigns in order to stimulate investment in these opportunities

• To support the development of bankable demonstration projects

• To facilitate access to appropriate and affordable financing options for concrete project

The Diesel To Solar (D2S) Initiative

• Millions of households and economic actors in the MENA region rely on diesel for their non-transport energy needs

• Diesel technologies are used for lighting, irrigation and pumping, heating and cooling, agro-processing, as well as powering domestic and industrial electrical appliances.

• Solar/Diesel hybrid systems are the lowest-cost, long-term option for off-grid power generation
