Evaluating Renewable Energy Policy: A Review of Criteria and Indicators for Assessment

Jack Nicholls, Rebecca Mawhood, Robert Gross, Arturo Castillo-Castillo

Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned report

Abstract

This paper investigates criteria and indicators used to evaluate renewable energy deployment policies. The focus is on application in lower income countries, and the report seeks to extend IRENA’s Policy Brief on the topic“ Evaluating policies in support of the deployment of renewable power”. Key objectives are to explore the extent to which the literature on such criteria and indicators considers lower income country contexts and whether existing analysis makes viable ‘short-hand’ (simple, easy to apply) indicators for assessment.
