EU–MENA energy technology transfer under the CDM: Israel as a frontrunner?

“…The SWOT Analysis has been applied to a wide range of issues, such as for environmental assessment (Kurttila et Lozano and Vallé s, 2007;Masozera et al, 2006;Paliwal, 2006), sustainable development (Mauerhofer, 2008), regional energy planning (Chiu and Yong, 2004;Terrados et al, 2007), renewable energy schemes (Karagiorgas, 2003;Naidu, 1996;Srivastava et al, 2005). Despite the fact that the most common tools in energy sector and environmental planning are based on multicriteria decision analysis techniques that have demonstrated their effectiveness in a significant amount of situations (Doukas et al, 2006;Greening and Bernow, 2004;Jacquet-Lagreze and Siskos, 2001;Karakosta et al, 2008;Pohekar and Ramchandran, 2004), the use of SWOT Analysis for exploring energy sector conditions and developing an environmental strategic plan could enable a correct comprehension of the current energy situation and serve as a basis for objectives and strategies proposal.…”
