Following the decreasing trend in RE capacity additions in 2018, it is foreseen that new additions will achieve a double-digit growth (by almost 12%) in 2019, driven by solar PV’s strong performance. The UNECE region has great potential to accommodate high shares of RE. However, most countries have not yet taken full advantage of this potential. Hard talks, organized by the GERE together with a number of key stakeholders originating from the private and public sector, are high-level, highengagement and high-impact events run on a demand-basis. Hard Talks aim to deliver an exchange dialogue on the actions host countries need to take to tap into their RE potential by attracting more investments. The Renewable Energy Hard Talks are two-day events that combine an expert-level workshop on the first day with a high-level policy talk building on the workshop’s findings during the second day. The barriers affecting the uptake of renewables are discussed during the first day, resulting in the development of a discussion paper, which is further elaborated during the following days to identify solutions and provide recommendations.
