Description :
The global objective is to help Overseas Countries and Territories (OCTs) define new strategies for the development of renewable energy and energy efficiency programs (energy plan) and analyze the related needs to do so. More specifically, the objectives were:
- To analyze the current situation of the energy area in the OCTs (institutional and economical analysis)
- To examine the applicability and relevance to OCTs of all new development in alternative energy production
- To identify the best practices and knowledge existing in the field of renewable energy within the OCTs, or countries close to them.
- To identify which best practices that have not been implemented yet in certain regions, could be implemented in the various OCTs to improve their energy programme

The study has been presented and discussed in a related workshop, where it fueled discussions and allowed an in-depth review of future options for OCT Energy policies.
