Public consultation for the creation of the Mozambique Renewable Energy Association - AMER, and invitation to founding members

ALER, with the support of RECP, is supporting the creation of the Mozambique Renewable Energy Association - AMER.

On September 29, the public consultation for the creation of AMER was held in Maputo. It was attended by 57 people, from representatives of companies, universities, NGOs and development cooperation agencies, to individuals and students interested in this issue.

During the meeting, a framework and presentation of the work already carried out by the installation committee of AMER were presented, along with the results of the needs assessment of the renewable energy sector in Mozambique, the proposal for the by-laws and internal rules of AMER and the proposal of AMER's Action Plan and budget. Finally, AMER's installation committee invited all interested parties to become founding members and explained the next steps for the creation of AMER during the month of October so that it could be officially presented at the end of the conference organized by ALER on 25 and 26 of October.
