Renewable Energy in Oman
 The Government of Oman has clearly stated its support for the implementation of
renewable energy initiatives in Oman
 A ministerial committee has been established to oversee and coordinate efforts
 The Authority for Electricity Regulation (AER) commissioned a study to
investigate the potential for renewable energy projects in the electricity sector.
The full study is available on AER web site www.aer-oman.org
 The Public Authority for Electricity and Water is taking steps to implement solar
and wind energy projects, to coordinate efforts to identify the need for research
and development and to identify the need for policy and other support
mechanisms
 Oman Power and Water Procurement (OPWP) is collecting data from two sites
(at Manah and Adam) to support development of future solar projects.
Preliminary data available on OPWP web site, www.omanpwp.com.
