Proceedings of the consultative workshop on renewable energy solutions for enterprise development in the Hindu Kush Himalaya

ICIMOD and IRENA have been conducting a comprehensive scoping exercise to analyse energy needs and gaps in selected key economic value chains in the HKH region, and the opportunities offered by renewable energy (RE) solutions. To share the preliminary findings of the assessment and gather feedback, a consultative workshop was organized on 20 November 2019, convening over 50 experts comprising the three major stakeholder groups needed to deploy RE solutions at speed and scale across the HKH – local enterprises; policy makers; and enablers such as financing institutions, development agencies, and foundations.
