雷克雅未克可再生能源与国家发展培训

培训项目概述

Reliable, affordable energy sits underneath almost every development goal: jobs, health services, schools, water supply and industry. The Tracking SDG7 Energy Progress Report 2025 found that global electricity access reached almost 92% in 2023, yet 666 million people still had no electricity and about 2.1 billion relied on polluting fuels for cooking. Most of those without power live in rural areas and in sub-Saharan Africa.

The same report shows that international financial flows for clean energy to developing countries rose for a third year to USD 21.6 billion in 2023, but remain below their 2016 peak. Money, policy and institutions therefore have to work together: governments need sound energy plans, credible regulators, utilities that can pay their bills and project pipelines that investors and development banks will finance.

New initiatives are raising the pace. Mission 300, led by the World Bank Group and the African Development Bank Group, aims to connect 300 million more Africans to electricity by 2030, and 29 countries had finalised National Energy Compacts by September 2025, setting out targets, reforms and investment needs. Geothermal programmes in Kenya, Ethiopia and Indonesia, supported by development finance, show how domestic renewable resources can replace imported fuel.

Iceland is a useful place to study this shift. In the early twentieth century it was among Europe’s poorest countries and depended on imported coal and later oil. After the oil crises of the 1970s it turned decisively to hydropower and geothermal energy, and today almost all of its electricity and most of its space heating come from domestic renewable sources.

This five-day programme in Reykjavik helps policymakers, regulators, utilities and project teams link renewable energy choices to national development outcomes: planning, policy design, technology options, grid integration, financing and community benefit. It closes with technical visits and a capstone exercise in which teams build a practical roadmap for their own country.

The Growing Importance of Renewable Energy for National Development

Energy policy has become development policy. About 600 million Africans lack electricity, roughly 83% of the global total according to the African Development Bank, and Mission 300 Compacts list more than 400 policy actions in their first batch alone, from strengthening utilities and simplifying regulation to cutting losses and improving the investment climate.

At the same time, countries with domestic renewable resources are using them to cut import bills and stabilise supply. Geothermal remains the leading source in Kenya’s electricity mix according to the regulator’s 2024-25 reporting, Ethiopia is expanding its Aluto-Langano geothermal field, and in Indonesia the World Bank’s Geothermal Resource Risk Mitigation Project, with a US$150 million IBRD loan and Clean Technology Fund resources channelled through PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur, aims to scale up investment in geothermal power.

These examples share a lesson: technology is rarely the main constraint. The harder work is planning, regulation, risk allocation, financing and keeping communities on side.

各机构日益需要具备以下能力的专业人员：

• Translating national development goals into energy targets
• Preparing least-cost and integrated resource plans
• Designing renewable energy auctions and tenders
• Setting cost-reflective but affordable tariffs
• Assessing resource potential and data needs
• Allocating exploration and construction risk
• Planning grid expansion and off-grid solutions together
• Integrating variable solar and wind into the grid
• Structuring projects for development bank and private finance
• Evaluating projects with financial and economic analysis
• Managing environmental and social safeguards
• Designing benefit-sharing arrangements with host communities
• Coordinating ministries, regulators and utilities
• Tracking progress against SDG7 and national compacts

Strong renewable energy systems help organisations:

• Reduce dependence on imported fuel
• Stabilise electricity and heating costs
• Extend access to rural and underserved communities
• Support industry, agriculture and small business
• Attract private and development finance
• Improve utility finances and service quality
• Lower emissions and local air pollution
• Build domestic technical skills and jobs
• Strengthen energy security against price shocks

Iceland’s experience shows that a long-term national commitment, backed by public institutions and research, can turn local resources into a lasting economic advantage.

技术参观与现场考察安排

The final day includes a structured technical visit programme in the Reykjavik area, organised around the themes of the week. Typical visits may cover a geothermal power or combined heat and power plant, a district heating facility, a hydropower or grid operation site, or an energy research and training institution. Visits are confirmed with host organisations closer to the programme dates and depend on access and operating conditions.

Each visit is preceded by a short briefing and followed by a facilitated discussion on what participants can transfer: planning horizons, public ownership models, maintenance practice and how local communities share the benefits. December brings short daylight hours and winter weather, so visits are scheduled with suitable transport and clothing advice.

区域相关性与应用

非洲

Africa holds most of the world’s population without electricity. Mission 300 and the 29 National Energy Compacts finalised by September 2025 create clear demand for officials who can turn targets into reforms and bankable projects. Kenya’s geothermal sector and Ethiopia’s Aluto-Langano expansion offer regional examples close to home.

亚洲

Indonesia’s geothermal risk mitigation programme with the World Bank shows how public finance can mobilise private investment in exploration. Across Asia, rising demand and grid integration of solar and wind are central planning questions for regulators and utilities.

Latin America and the Caribbean

The GRÓ Geothermal Training Programme lists cooperation countries in Latin America and the Caribbean islands, reflecting active geothermal interest in the region. Island states that rely on imported fuel can draw directly on Iceland’s shift from oil to local resources.

太平洋地区

Small island developing states face high fuel import costs and limited grid scale. The sessions on mini-grids, storage and community ownership are designed with these constraints in mind.

中东

Countries in the region are adding large solar and wind capacity while managing water scarcity and fast-growing demand. Auction design, grid integration and storage sessions are directly relevant.

欧洲

For European agencies and development partners, the programme offers a practical view of how renewable energy supports development objectives in partner countries.

Across all regions, the shared challenge is turning resources and commitments into projects, institutions and services that last.

东道国概况：冰岛

Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital, is compact, safe and home to the country’s main ministries, universities and energy institutions. It is also the base of the GRÓ Geothermal Training Programme, which began in 1978 as the United Nations University Geothermal Training Programme and since 2020 has operated under UNESCO’s auspices, offering six-month training for professionals from developing countries and MSc and PhD study with the University of Iceland and Reykjavik University.

According to the Government of Iceland, about 85% of the country’s primary energy supply comes from domestic renewable sources, hydropower provides about 73% of electricity and geothermal about 27%, and around 85% of houses are heated with geothermal energy through district heating. A 2006 report by Iceland’s National Energy Authority describes how hot-water heating in Reykjavik began in 1930, how the 1970s oil crises pushed policy towards domestic resources, and how geothermal heating produced large savings compared with oil.

Iceland is a member of the Schengen Area, so Schengen visa rules apply, and Keflavík International Airport serves the capital area with direct flights to Europe and North America. Participants should check current visa requirements for their nationality on official government websites. December is cold with short daylight hours, and Risalat provides clothing and travel advice with joining instructions.

Common Challenges in Renewable Energy and National Development, And How This Training Helps

How can we link energy targets to wider development goals?

Day 1 uses SDG7 data and the participant’s national plan to connect energy actions to jobs, services and growth, and the capstone turns that link into a roadmap.

How do we attract private investment without raising tariffs too far?

Day 2 covers auction design and tariff setting, and Day 4 shows how concessional finance and guarantees can lower costs for consumers.

How can we manage the high risk of geothermal exploration?

Day 3 examines how risk mitigation funds and contingent grants share early drilling risk, using the Indonesian programme as a case.

How do we integrate solar and wind without destabilising the grid?

Day 3 covers grid planning, flexibility and storage options suited to systems of different sizes.

How can we reach rural communities the grid will not reach soon?

Days 2 and 3 compare mini-grid and off-grid solutions with grid extension and show how to plan them together.

How do we keep host communities supportive of large projects?

Day 4 covers safeguards, engagement and benefit-sharing arrangements, reinforced by discussion during the technical visits.

How can ministries, regulators and utilities work from the same plan?

The capstone on Day 5 requires delegations to assign roles across institutions and agree shared indicators for monitoring progress.
