Process
guidance and optimisation for the establishment of an Information Clearing House
on renewable energy and energy efficiency
The "Renewable Energy
and Energy Efficiency Partnership" (REEEP) was launched as a public-private partnership
in August 2002 and was formally established in June 2004 as a legal entity with
the status of an International NGO. By providing opportunities for concerted collaboration
among its partners, REEEP aims to accelerate the global marketplace for renewable
energy and energy efficiency (REES).
In order to fill the existing information
gap on REES as regards mainly legislation, investment opportunities etc. REEEP
decided in partnership with the "Renewable Energy Policy Network for the 21st
century" (REN21) as well as Dutch, British, Austrian and German environment ministries
to establish an Information Clearinghouse (ICH) on these issues.
