SERN publishes web and literature reviews for energy regulators

Warwick, 11.10.2010 - James Smith

The Sustainable Energy Regulation Network (SERN), an initiative core-funded by REEEP, has produced a list of useful websites for energy regulators and a new literature review of documents related to off-grid regulation and rural electrification.

There is a wealth of documentation available on the web on regulation and sustainable energy which are often under-exploited. SERN's has therefore produced a web review that lists a number of websites of international organisations and research centres containing E-databases and E-libraries, selected for the quality of their documentation on sustainable energy, and gives a short description of the content of each website. 

After a literature review released in 2008 of documents resulting from academic research and consultancy work on regulation and sustainable energy, SERN has also produced another literature review, this time focused on documentation related to off-grid regulation and rural electrification. This annotated bibliography list forty reports and papers the majority on how to deliver sustainable rural energy services notably with solar home systems that can be easily found on the web.

Another SERN literature review focusing on energy efficiency will be produced mid 2011.
