PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A PROGRAM FOR CLEAN ENERGY AND CLIMATE EXPERTISE IN TUNISIA

About the project:
BOOST Global Innovation, together with SINTEF and key Tunisian partners, conducted a pre-feasibility study to identify key-areas of cooperation between Tunisia and Norway within clean energy and climate expertise. Based on the needs and priorities of the Tunisian partners, the outcome was a suggested program targeting the three focus areas education, training and technology transfer and networking. When the core education program is in place, the next goal is to develop the program into a physical hub for Clean Energy and Climate Expertise in Tunisia.

Deliverables:
– Field visit to Tunisia, February 2015: meetings and on-site visits together with Tunisian partners
– Develop report: Program for Clean Energy and Climate Expertise in Tunisia

Impact:
The suggested program after the study is in support of the ambiguous Tunisian targets of 30% renewable energy by 2030 and the Tunisian Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA`s) under the UNFCCC.
