| Description : |
The overall objective is to back Mauritania to develop a modelling tool to define an energy transition strategy for 2050, in connection with the fight against poverty and climate change. - To produce decision-making tools to help the Ministry of Petroleum, Mines and Energy to take account the challenges of combating poverty and climate change in its energy transition policy; - To strengthen national capacities in energy sector modelling and understanding the links between energy transition trajectory, poverty reduction and climate change - To develop a model of the Mauritanian energy sector allowing, among other things, to analyze the trajectory of cooking energies and options to increase the rate of renewal of wood and charcoal withdrawals from wooded areas, and/or substitution by other energies (LPG, electrification, etc.). |
