Africa has installed wind capacity of just 9 GW – less than 1% of the global total. However, there is increasing recognition of both the benefits of wind energy and Africa’s enormous potential, and the Global Wind Energy Council expects this capacity to grow by 900% in the coming years. This presentation by the International […]
Wind farms tend to be large projects built in relatively remote areas, and in the past, they have often generated more disturbance than benefits for local communities. This World Bank report discusses models that allow host communities of wind energy projects to benefit more from those projects.
This is Energypedia’s Wind Portal. It provides an overview of wind energy technology, preparatory studies needed to plan a wind energy project, wind energy policy frameworks, and wind energy project implementation, operation, MEL and impacts.
This report assesses the effectiveness of women in energy networks worldwide and offers best practices and recommendations for networks under development or those aiming to enhance their impact.
This report provides recommendations for improving the availability of sex-disaggregated and specific gender equality data in the energy sector, to improve decision making and programme design.
This article by ILO’s International Training Centre explains the importance of learning objectives, introduces the competencies framework, and provides a practical guide for writing effective learning objectives.
This factsheet provides some general information about needs analyses and guides learning and development specialists through the process of analysing learning needs in their organisation.
This resource guides trainers in conducting activities on greening TVET. It compiles content from various sources and offers practical strategies tailored for TVET leaders, managers, and instructors. The manual provides a step-by-step approach to help trainers, administrators, and academics lead TVET toward sustainability.
This resource offers a comparative analysis of existing green skills frameworks to support sustainable development through TVET. It includes two detailed matrices—one mapping green frameworks chronologically, and another summarizing empirical research on green skills relevant to green industries. The study highlights key concepts, models, and collaborations needed between TVET institutions and green sectors to develop […]
This report highlights the importance of sector coupling as a key source of flexibility that cities can explore to stabilise power grid operations when integrating high shares of variable renewable energy sources. It presents a range of sector coupling opportunities available for use in cities, including self-consumption of variable RE sources, the role of thermal […]
