Overview

RE-ACTIVATE’s publications dealing with RE/EE employment effects and potentials in MENA countries can be subdivided into three main types of publications:

  • Country-level studies dealing with RE/EE in MENA
  • Studies dealing with specific RE/EE sectors or technologies in MENA
  • Studies dealing with specific RE/EE market actors and institutions in MENA

Country-level Studies

RE-ACTIVATE has so far launched two studies that take a comprehensive look at the socio-economic effects, especially local job and value creation, achieved through RE/EE (all technologies and sectors confounded) at the country level: one for Tunisia (completed in 2016) and one for Egypt (to be completed in 2017). Both aimed to carry out a quantitative as well as a qualitative assessment of the aforementioned impacts of RE/EE, in addition to calculating capacity building needs of the partner country and to providing practice-oriented recommendations to policy makers.

Sector- or Technology-specific Studies

RE-ACTIVATE has in addition launched a number of studies that look more deeply into the local job and value creation effects that have been or could be achieved in specific RE and/or EE sectors or through specific RE and/or EE technologies. Special attention has been paid to those applications that require an over-average amount of local labor, or those sectors in which concrete market opportunities for local value creation can already be detected. As with the country-level studies, both quantitative and qualitative aspects of RE/EE employment creation have been covered, and on the basis of these findings the capacity building needs of the partner countries have been calculated, and practice-oriented recommendations produced for policy makers.

Actor- or Institution-specific Studies

RE-ACTIVATE has finally launched a number of studies that address the potential role and contribution of specific actors or institutions for a locally driven and job-intensive roll of RE/EE in MENA. This concerns a wide array of relevant topics, including new market opportunities for specialized RE/EE service providers (bureaux de contrôle, bureaux d’études), new forms of self-organization of relevant markets actors (e.g. RE/EE clusters and cluster-like organizations), and quality assurance and quality control in the field of RE/EE training and service provision.
