REEEP

Laws

Achieving REEEP’s overall vision of establishing a global market for sustainable energy is largely dependent on overcoming legal barriers. To this aim, REEEP has supported a number of projects at the international, national, and regional level aimed at the analysis and provision of regulatory frameworks in support of renewable energy and energy efficiency:

Feed-in Tariff Laws

The Policy Action on Climate Toolkit (PACT) project aims to provide the necessary elements for rapidly introducing policy to combat climate change - giving parliamentarians, civil servants, and advocates around the world access to the legal and technical expertise needed to envisage, to argue for and to enact laws and policies that effectively protect the climate.

PACT provides advice to countries wanting to implement legislation to support renewable energy via feed-in tariffs.
