The energy policy committee of the Ministry of Mines and Energy developed the white paper. [...] The institutional challenges included the lack of an institutional framework that promotes the balanced use of all forms of energy including renewable energy, the lack of financing systems for renewable energy applications and the limited coordination among ministries engaged in energy provision. [...] The National Renewable Energy Policy, launched in 2017, sought to guide how the state would develop the renewable energy sec- tor and scale up the contribution of power from renewable energy sources in the national grid. [...] Key Knowledge: A good understanding of the intellectual property and patent landscape in renewable energy, knowledge of environmental considerations in research and development projects, knowledge of national and international regulatory frame- works and policies and knowledge of energy storage technologies and their role in enhancing renewable energy integration. [...] • ErongoRed: ErongoRed purchases electricity to distribute to the various municipalities and town councils in the Erongo region namely: the Municipality of Walvis Bay, Swakopmund, Henties Bay and Omaruru; the Town Council of Karibib, Usakos and Arandis.
