The RECP Policy Advisory Services supports sub-Saharan African countries to a more ‘renewable energy friendly’ environment by means of a service provider. This is done through a package of consultancy services, which assist countries in improving their policy approach towards private investors in the renewable energy sector.

This support could take the shape of establishing in-country dialogue through a workshop; exchanges with other countries; short-term studies; trainings; support in formulation of regulations; and assist in implementing agreed policies and regulations. Subjects can be suggested by private sector (associations) as well as public institutions and will be prioritised by RECP - amongst others -on the potential for decreasing barriers towards renewable energy investment in the country.

It is being implemented through a dedicated team of external experts, in close coordination with a local public institution which “owns” the issue, under coordination and management of the EUEI PDF.

The envisaged beneficiaries of this work are the public parties that shape/regulate the sub-Saharan renewable energy markets, by addressing key urgent policy challenges that hamper further market development.
