Abstract

A methodology for quantitative and objective Renewable Energy Market Competence Index is developed. The proposed index includes 18 different quantitative indicators; among them 13 are general indicators covering the political, economical situation of the country, and the energy sector, and 5 are technology specific that change from a renewable energy technology to another. In this part of the work, data are collected for the 13 general indicators for 8 Arab countries and 10 benchmark countries. In addition, the methodology of calculating the final index is presented.
