PICTs expressed an urgent need for capacity building in the renewable energy and energy efficiency sector. The increasing sustainable energy investments and the introduction of appropriate regulations and standards go hand in hand with the need for local capacities. Moreover, there is the impression that the local private sector and industry do not take advantage of the growing sustainable energy market and job opportunities.
These developments endanger the long-term sustainability of existing investments as they are usually conducted by enterprises from outside. Technical knowledge is required to establish a critical mass of policy makers, project financiers and engineers who will be able to manage all aspects of sustainable energy development and implementation. The following table summarises the capacity requirements of the different stakeholder groups.
