Adequately addressing these challenges in a timely manner is beyond the reach of any one institution and therefore strategic partnerships among institutions at the international, regional, and national levels are critical,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>stated\u00a0<strong>Solomon<\/strong><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Executive Director<\/strong>\u00a0of CCREEE,\u00a0<strong>Dr Gary Jackson<\/strong>\u00a0stated:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c<em>Partnerships is one of our guiding principles at the CCREEE and we are therefore pleased to join forces with the CDB toward the realisation of many local, regional and international goals and ambitions. This partnership is a coalition of the willing, operating within the regional energy landscape and building on each institutions\u2019 existing programmes. The impact sustainable energy can have on Caribbean economies cannot be understated and it is via partnerships, such as these, that we can rally together, to realise our ambitions.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The agreement provides a structure for the two organisations to collaborate and cooperate on areas where their joint expertise can be most useful to the sector, including in capacity strengthening, knowledge management, information sharing, energy planning and the preparation and execution of RE\/EE projects in countries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>SOURCE:\u00a0<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-59107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Capture00-300x40.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"46\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Capture00-300x40.png 300w, https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Capture00.png 529w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"inside topics\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Two regional institutions have come together to forge a partnership to advance sustainable energy development and energy efficiency promotion [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":165,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[3726,3964,3489,3320],"class_list":["post-59097","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-caribbean-development-bank","tag-caribbeancentreforrenewable-energyandenergyefficiency","tag-cdb","tag-ccreee"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.svg","month_date":"Oct","day_date":"12","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/users\/165"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59097"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59097\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59097"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59097"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
