Questionnaire: Caribbean Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (CCREEE) The United Nations Industrial Development Organization in cooperation with SIDS DOCK (represented by the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre) and the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) are assisting the Caribbean Countries and Territories (CCTs) in the establishment of the Caribbean Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (CCREEE). The technical and institutional design will be determined during a consultative preparatory process which includes the development of a needs assessment and a project document on the centre. This questionnaire has been developed by SIDS DOCK and ADA with the intention of learning directly from Caribbean energy market stakeholders about their experiences and priorities for the sector. In particular, the questionnaire will assist in the identification of the following key aspects: Understand the expectations of the different stakeholders regarding the function and services of the centre Define the added value and scope of the mandate for the centre and assess its priority areas for assistance Understand the status of sustainable energy development in the Caribbean and duplication with ongoing activities Identify the remaining barriers for RE & EE in the Caribbean and define methodologies to address through regional assistance Identify options for an effective, efficient, sustainable and institutional set-up for the centre Your participation in this survey is greatly appreciated. Any comments and suggestions you provide will be invaluable to the design and successful operation of a centre that addresses the energy challenges facing the Caribbean region. The needs assessment and project document which will be based on the results of the survey (without identifying the authors of specific responses) will be discussed in a validation workshop to be held in July 2014.
