The objective of this article is to provide an overview of data and information sources for renewable energy technology, financing and project development. In this way, this article attempts to facilitate the development of successful renewable energy projects.
Many promising renewable energy project ideas are not implemented due to a lack of knowledge or expertise on how to move them forward. Successful renewable energy projects are characterised by:
Different sources of information, such as internal -energypedia- information, or external sources, are listed below.
Data and information that can be obtained from the energypedia portal.
