CAP SD analyses policy in the fields of energy saving and sustainable energy. This includes system analyses, potential estimations, market research, sector analyses and costs-benefit analysis of policy measures.

CAP SD advises on policy targets, policy instruments and the planning of concrete measures, often in the format of policy action plans. Finally, CAP SD can support the drafting of policy documents.

Experience

CAP SD has carried out policy-supporting analyses for various developing countries and for countries in Central and Eastern Europe. Based on these analyses national policy was formulated, among others in the housing sector, in combined heat and power production and in renewable energy.

The largest barrier for the policy for promoting of energy efficiency and renewable energy lies in its implementation. Planning and implementing policy measures carefully is, therefore, of eminent importance. This is particularly true in developing countries and in Central and Eastern Europe due to limited available resources. The efficiency and effectiveness of policy needs to be assessed ex-ante and needs to be monitored regularly.

Thanks to a broad international experience, CAP SD not only advises governments and international organisations but also participates in conceiving concrete policy plans.
