On the following pages, we will envisage an overview of
renewable energy policy-making.
First, we will look at the rationale, i.e.
the arguments for countries or local governments to undertake active renewable energy policies.
This also gives first indications as to which issues
should be tackled by what kind of policy.
Numerous actors
and stakeholders shape and intervene in renewable energy policy-making and
implementation.
Today, we can draw from a rich variety of experiences
that have been made with political measures
and instruments.
For effective policy guidance, the different concepts need to be
classified according to objectives, issues and potentials.
More and
more countries set themselves targets towards
which they orient their renewable energy policies with specific
objectives defined in time and quantity.
