7. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 7 Prepare a questionnaire Reflecting the various NA countries’ circumstances Issues related to Energy Access/Security/Resource mobilization are specific to the region Energy sector: generally centralized agencies in NA (e.g. CDER in Morocco, APRUE in Algeria, ANME in Tunisia)

8. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 8 In case no relevant responses would be collected: In case no relevant responses would be collected: Option: have a direct contact (email, tel, country visit) with stakeholders in the targeted countries We have already practical experience on needs in the region, that we can consolidate/enrich through targeted studies

20. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 20 ACCESS TO COOKING FUELS

21. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 21 Access to Electricity in NA Region Important use (mainly rural) Accessibility issues Limited use R: limited knowledge 10-12% of the Energy balance Limited information No use No knowledge Limited use R: limited knowledge

22. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 22 Biofuels in NA Region Main issues: –Access –Sustainability –Security

23. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 23 Biofuels in NA Region Access: mainly rural areas and probably peri-urban in some cities (Morocco/Tunisia) Level of cost as per household revenues? Any difficulties to access to resources ? Difficulties to access to alternative resources (LPG, Kerosene)

24. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 24 Biofuels in NA Region Sustainability/security of supply: –How the wood energy resources are used ? –Expected use in the future –Biomass contribution in energy balances

25. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 25 Biofuels in NA Region Access/ Sustainability/security of supply - Potential Needs: –Undertake relevant survey/studies for current/future biomass use/profiles + Updating process –Implement relevant entities addressing the biomass use issues: Current uses (Morocco, Tunisia) Perspectives for biofuel uses in the Region in the future (studies + capacity development to identify alternatives and potentials) –Project/Mechanisms to improve access/sustainability and security of supply and to implement alternative responses –Mobilize resources to implement the projects

26. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 26 BROADER CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS

27. Dakar, 3-5 November 2009 27 Developing Energy Outlook for medium and longer terms: –Modelling exercises –Anticipation of the future planning issues Developing Energy Policies: –Enhancing the Role of EE&RE Agencies at political levels –Promoting/Mobilizing systematically EE&RE resources –Evaluating the contribution of EE&RE in Economic development and in sustainability/security of supply: Anticipating the future: Exporting Green Energy production to Europe (Thermo-Solar, Wind, etc.) Creating industrial infrastructure for RE, etc. Evaluating the resources needed to implement voluntary EE&RE programmes
