On the 1/2 of June, the second workshop on Deployment of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in Small Island Developing States was held remotely with 46 participants, including regulators from Pacific and Caribbean islands, and facilitators from RMI, RETA, UN ESCAP, and other partners including GGGI, IRENA and World Bank.
The workshop focused on three topics: examining various tariff design options and associated regulatory reforms to accelerate deployment of DERs, sharing participants’ experiences in implementing regulatory solutions for supporting DER adoption, and engaging in collaborative problem-solving to address challenges faced by regulators in advancing the DER agenda.
More information on some of the best practices identified will follow, as well as future workshops for small island regulators on other topics.
