REToolKit provides a broad set of tools to assist Bank staff and country counterparts to improve the design and implementation of renewable energy (RE) projects, incorporates best practices and lessons learned from RE projects supported by the WBG and others, and is operationally oriented to address practical implementation needs at each stage in the project cycle.
REToolKit will help you to identify and design feasible RE projects, determine appropriate promotional policies, identify sustainable business models, finance mechanisms and regulatory frameworks - and utilize the best available project tools, including technical standards and generic terms of reference.
Structure: The REToolkit consists of two parts:
An Issues Note that presents key economic, policy and financial issues surrounding grid-connected, mini grid and stand-alone renewable energy systems. This note also sheds light on relevant policy frameworks, business models, and finance mechanisms for each of these systems. A Technology chapter in this note provides details on the technical requirements of village hydropower, wind, biomass, geothermal, solar photovoltaic (PV) and hybrid systems. The Issues Note is in Adobe Acrobat PDF format and is searchable (using the "Search" function in Acrobat Reader ) by keywords to guide the reader's specific interest.
