Delivering Tools Towards Greater Renewable Energy Uptake

As seen on CAPRI Caribbean's blog:
The Caribbean Policy Research Institute (CaPRI) is leading a European Union (EU) funded programme “Frameworks, policies and instruments for mobilising renewable energy (RE) in the Caribbean” which aims to accelerate private sector investment in RE in the region. It delivers analytical and information tools to build capacity and accompany the decision making process in relevant sectors:

Caribbean energy consumers (SMEs, households), you’ll be able to use our Technology Assessment tool to determine and size RE systems to meet your energy needs, and perform a preliminary financial evaluation of your RE project.
Energy consumers, project developers, utilities and independent power producers alike, you can use our project financing database to search for and identify appropriate financing for your RE projects, large and small, (click here). You will also have access to information on incentives for RE investments in target countries.

Policy-makers, you will have access to our policy analysis tool to analyse the effectiveness of existing instruments for encouraging RE investment, and to help in the conceptualization and (re-)design of instruments and RE tariffs (net billing, feed-in tariffs), in accordance with the private sector bottom line - without penalising the consumer in the long run. We’ll also be sharing success stories, of what has worked in other countries having similar energy economies.
The main targets countries of the programme are Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, and St. Kitts and Nevis, yet many outputs will be applicable for the Caribbean region as a whole.
