GN-SEC

To address the missing link of regional clean energy cooperation in developing countries, UNIDO launched the Global Network of Regional Sustainable Energy Centres (GN-SEC) programme in 2010. Under a joint platform, UNIDO assists regional economic communities (RECs) in the creation and operation of sustainable energy centres, which drive and accelerate the energy transition “from the region for the region”. The GN-SEC is an innovative south-south and triangular multi-stakeholder partnership.
