IRENA Going Forward – Investment Forums
New avenue to streamline the Agency’s work and convene stakeholders to generate investments
IRENA will scale up efforts to support the creation of enabling frameworks and catalyse investments towards renewable energy.
Will partner with international finance and development institutions to induce action on regional and sub-regional levels.
The Forums will be tailored to the specific needs for each region

IRENA’s REmap programme
Focus on renewable power technologies plus
- Heating
- Transport
- Cooling
Technology pathways and estimation of other metrics
- Sector and systems costs
- Investment needs, air pollution and climate
- Co2 emissions, employment, economic growth
Country driven results provide
insights to policy and decision
makers
Assesses and determines potential to scale up renewables.

Global Atlas for Renewable Energy
Allows users to find maps of renewable
energy resources for locations across the
world
Aims at closing gap between countries with
access to data and expertise and those
without.
