4. Objectives
A review of polices for energy efficiency and renewable energy
in the RCREEE Member States to:
• Evaluate the status of planning processes, regulations and
incentives for RE & EE and their impacts:
- Provide Information on the economic, technical and environmental
impacts of the policies and instruments used for RE&EE
- Provide an overview of how countries’ EE & RE policies compare
with other countries in the region

11. Outcomes
• The levels of Toe/GDP ($) in RCREEE countries are generally
higher compared to other regions.
• Accordingly, industry in RCREEE countries is not competitive
and will expose the countries to potential oil price shocks
and to large import bills for energy.
• Consequently, enhanced policies for RE&EE have to be
adopted.

12. Recommendations
EE
• Policy Making Process
- Benchmarking of policy
- Policy support to LS-RE projects RE
- A common policy for EE instruments
EP
• Further RCREEE work plan EP R &D PPP
