REEPRO Promotion of the Use of Renewable Energies

 

The Objective of the REEPRO Project is to contribute to the provision of energy services to those currently  unserved or underserved by high quality energy services through the promotion of renewable energies. During  the REEPRO project an extensive training and information campaign in the target countries Laos and Cambodia  was performed. As such, training kits including text books, teaching material and teaching descriptions were eveloped for Solar Energy, Biomass Energy and Renewable Energy Entrepreneurship. Additionally, selected  communities were encouraged to develop and implement RES projects.


The local training kits are structured in 3 levels according to REEPRO’s 3 target groups
• Level 1 – Engineers and experts,
• Level 2 – Technicians and
• Level 3 – Community stakeholders.
Trainers of each level were trained and trainings for each level performed during the 3 years project.
