The EUEI PDF designs workshops to build local knowledge and skills needed for the implementation of energy policies and regulations, and to strengthen operational modalities in institutions. The EUEI PDF’s capacity building training programmes also create opportunities for lasting cooperation between relevant actors. These events make an essential contribution to increased coordination of cross-sectoral development. Workshops can focus on a diverse range of topics relevant to sustainable energy development, such as policy, financing mechanisms, business models, operation and maintenance, socioeconomic aspects, and private sector and community involvement.
