2. To bring about effective power sector reform which eliminates barriers to DE and creates real market opportunity for DE;
3. To co-ordinate the creation and monetisation of high quality carbon credits from DE projects;
4. To compile global data on all aspects of DE development;
5. To support the establishment of DE groups in every country."WADE, "WADE Mission Statement", WADE website. Accessed 13/02/09
