IEA-PVSDC has an extensive programme of work underway, but somewhat limited to PV technology. The main activities to be undertaken with REEEP co-financing will be to expand the work to include small hydro and wind technologies, as Renewable Energy Services for Developing Countries, and to conduct at least 2 additional workshops in 2005/6, in Brazil, South Africa and India. The current programme already has commitments to hold Workshops at the World Bank, and in China and Laos in the 2005/6 FY. Feedback to IEA member governments on policy change, new directions will be made. Policy redirection towards developing countries could have very significant impact on energy and environment.
