IRENA at the 2023 International Energy Workshop
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) co-sponsored and participated in the 41st International Energy Workshop (IEW) to address electricity demand profiles in the clean energy transition.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) co-sponsored and participated in the 41st International Energy Workshop (IEW) to address electricity demand profiles in the clean energy transition.
The joint webinar by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), TransnetBW GmbH and the Costa Rican Electricity Institute, aimed at discussing innovative solutions for operating power systems with increasing shares of variable renewable electricity.
Grid Integration workshop on Advanced Modelling for Renewables in PSS/E for Power System Studies as part of IRENA’s initiative for Clean Energy Corridor of Central America (CECCA)
In the framework of the project “Energy Solutions for Cities of the Future”, IRENA organised a capacity building event on the integration of low-temperature renewable energy sources into district energy systems targeting Southeast Europe.
GREF 2019 focused on pathways towards carbon-neutrality by 2050, analysing the current status of renewable energy policies and decarbonisation pathways from different perspectives and highlight the role of hydrogen and power-to-x pathways — focusing on improving the understanding of hydrogen ‘as a low-carbon technology option’ and analysing the existing barriers and solutions needed to accelerate its deployment.
The first regional workshop for REmap and FlexTool Central America harmonised awareness of the relevant existing work in the region, exchange the best practices of Central American countries, and shared details of IRENA's REmap and FlexTool analyses.
The focus of this online workshop was on countries who have pledged very high (above 70-80% to 100%) renewable power targets by mid-century, and that accepted to participate in the experience-sharing programme on innovative solutions.
During the 38th edition of the International Energy Workshop (IEW) on 3 June 2019 in Paris, France, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) held a side event to discuss recent debates around the concept of “grid integration costs”.
Organised within the frameworks of IRENA’s Regional Initiative in South East Europe and co-hosted by the Energy Community Secretariat, the workshop enhanced local capacities at the technical, regulatory and operational level for the integration of variable renewable energy to the power systems.
This workshop brought together policy makers and leading energy system modelers from China and abroad to share their experience in using models and scenario analysis to address some of the key questions in the electric power sector.
As part of IRENA's capacity building programme in West Africa, State Grid Corporation of China hosted a study tour for the programme's participants.
In the framework of the OLADE Experts Meeting, IRENA and OLADE jointly organised a workshop focused on opportunities for accelerating the energy transformation in Latin America.
The Energy Transitions Working Group established the groundwork for policies on key issues such as energy efficiency, renewable energy, access to affordable energy in Latin America and the Caribbean, the reduction of inefficient subsidies on fossil fuels, making information on energy transparent, and the digitalisation of energy markets.
The Assessing Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements Meeting focused on the findings from the CECCA’s technical and regulatory components, and train stakeholders on IRENA’s PPA assessment tool.
In the framework of the implementation of the West Africa Clean Energy Corridor (WACEC), which was validated, adopted and endorsed by the countries of the West Africa region in 2016 – 2017, IRENA has launched a capacity building programme in the region in collaboration with relevant stakeholders of the ECOWAS power sector (ECREEE, WAPP, ERERA and GIZ).
