Sustainable Energy Roadmap & Implementation Plans (SERIP)
The Sustainable Energy Roadmap & Implementation Plan aims to transition energy systems to be socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable through defined goals and strategic policies. Key barriers include financial constraints, knowledge gaps, and policy uncertainties, while enablers comprise regulatory policies and international cooperation. The plan emphasizes the need for capacity building, governance efficiency, and technical assessments to facilitate the adoption of renewable energy solutions.

- 3. Theory of change •Overall strategy and individual recommendations only successful if they get buy-in from key drivers of change – Decision-makers in policy, business (entrepreneurs, project developer) and finance (investors, banks, international funders) – Media, NGOs and civil society as important communicators and pressure groups • Necessitates a paradigm shift • Requires that we demonstrate that – the outcome is in the clear interest of the people; allow for greater prosperity, security, integrity, happiness – the pathway is technically, socially, economically, politically and financially feasible
