Renewable energy auctions in developing countries
1st January 2013
Topic(s): Renewables, Economics, Domestic policy
Renewable energy auctions are also known as ‘demand auctions’ or ‘procurement auctions’, whereby the government issues a call for tenders to install a certain capacity of renewable energy-based electricity. While studies have been published on feed-in-tariff schemes, literature on auctions is scarce. In an effort to fill the knowledge gap and take stock of experiences to date, this report analyses the design of renewable energy auctions in selected developing countries. The objective is to identify best practices and provide some insights to policy makers regarding the type and the design of auctions.

A discussion paper on a mechanism for sectoral emission reduction action: the case of China's electricity sector
1st December 2008
Topic(s): Renewables, Economics, Domestic policy
The authors of this paper discuss mitigation and financing potentials of China’s electricity sector. It is a very large emitting sector, and there are many technologies available for improving emissions performance. They believe there are significant potential benefits both for sustainable development in developing countries and for the global atmosphere. However, they emphasise that theirs is a proposal for a voluntary mechanism, therefore countries must be convinced that it is in their best interests in order for it to proceed.
