DOHA: The EU-GCC Clean Energy Network, an inter-regional consortium promoting strategic cooperation between the EU and the GCC will host a high-level meeting on the sidelines of the COP-18 Conference.

The “GCC Renewable Energy Readiness Meeting’ is open to COP18 delegates and co-organised with Qatar Environment & Energy Research Institute (QEERI) of Qatar Foundation (QF). 

It will take place today at the GCC Pavilion, Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC) and aims to highlight the importance of a recent initiative, ‘GCC Renewable Energy Readiness Assessment Report’, being developed with Network partners across the GCC.  

Renewable Energy (RE) readiness is defined as the level of development of a country’s infrastructure, institutions, and human-capital factors that influence the attractiveness of investing in renewable-energy projects. It plays an important role in enhancing the reliability of renewable-energy technologies (RET) to ensure their sustainable deployment.The Peninsula
