We recently sat down with IRENA Director of Project Facilitation & Support Division Dr. Ahmed Badr, to discuss how IRENA is championing the adoption of renewable energy throughout the MENA region, sharing his thoughts as to how governments can and should incorporate renewables into their wider strategies.

Dr. Badr will take part in the Energy & CCE Forum panel discussion "Building a Regional Grid in MENA" at Innovation Zero MENA this October.
