1. The Global Atlas for Renewable Energy The world’s renewable energy prospector Dr. N. Fichaux, IRENA

2. OVERVIEW MANDATE OBJECTIVE SCOPE
To promote the widespread adoption and sustainable use of all forms of renewable energy worldwide
OBJECTIVE
To serve as a network hub, an advisory resource and an authoritative, unified, global voice for renewable energy
SCOPE
All renewable energy sources produced in a sustainable manner

3. Global Atlas Strategy
The world needs USD 900 billion investments per year in renewable energy to avoid catastrophic climate consequences and meet its development goals;
Finance flows must be accelerated and more bankable projects brought to the market;
IRENA will propose a new approach to deliver fast and reliable support to projects, anywhere, without costly resource measurement campaigns.
