Welcome to REEEP
The Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) is a non-profit, specialist change agent aiming to catalyse the market for renewable energy and energy efficiency, with a primary focus on emerging markets and developing countries.
- REEEP initiates and funds projects; targeted interventions in two specific areas that offer the greatest potential for developing the market for sustainable energy:
- assisting governments in creating favourable regulatory and policy frameworks
- promoting innovative finance and business models to activate the private sector - REEEP develops and supports policy-maker networks with initiatives such as the Energy Efficiency Coalition (EEC), the Sustainable Energy Regulation Network (SERN) and Renewable Energy and International Law (REIL)
- REEEP builds capacity and disseminates and replicates learnings through news items, sponsored trainings, publications, its website and events. It also operates a clean energy information portal (reegle) and a sustainable energy blog.
The Partnership was established alongside the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg. It is now comprised of 400 partners including 45 governments as well as a range of private companies and international organisations. Some 5200 individuals are registered as Friends of REEEP.
The REEEP Regional Secretariats around the world, including China and India, ensure that activities are locally relevant and focused.
REEEP is supported primarily by governments (Australia, Austria, Canada, the European Union, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, the US and the United Kingdom) and by contributions from the private sector. Robust governance and monitoring structures ensure that all contributions are spent transparently and effectively.
