SHAMCI Implemented Next Targeted Countries

Start: The Executive office of the Arab ministerial electricity council raised arequest to RCREEE and AIDMO to work on standardization and certificationprogram for SWHs aiming to achieve a quality certificate for the Arab region.

Objective: Quality Insurance of SWH and Services in the Arab Region.

Challenges: overall down trend on quality control (e.g. certification and qualityregulations), R&D, mandatory SWH, taxes and trade regulations.

Recommendations Toward a Regional Quality Market (1/2)

Suggest to the EU commission to continue support this activity and convert it to sustainable working group sharing its knowledge and competence

Support the operation and the comprehensiveness of the quality infrastructure according to the current needs in line of the level of sector/market development

Prioritize RE&EE products and services with the focus on air-conditioning quality schemes

Harmonize standards, testing and accreditation procedures in the region

. 27RECOMMENDATIONS

Recommendations Toward a Regional Quality Market (2/2)

Support the interrelation exchange between QI, energy and growth trade to support economic development and future planning

Support R&D activities to more applicable standards tailored to SEMC

Support regional training package for quality in RE&EE services with focus on systems installation and maintenance in order to reach regional guidelines

Support awareness raising and public relations activities

Ensure confidence and peer to peer exchange between involving parties
