Renewable Nations:
Human Capacity Building for the Global Transition to Renewable Energy

The Renewable Nations Consortium, sponsored by SolarQuest®, will operate as an internationally chartered non-governmental organization. Renewable Nations will recruit teams of international exchange students at Universities in Member Nations (the Green Earth Corps) to engage productively in community service projects. The Green Earth Corps will:

  • Develop regional and national systems models of energy options and environmental impacts as the foundations for policy formulation,

  • Design policy for adoption at local, national and international levels,

  • Incubate innovation centers for renewable energy and energy conservation (civic activities, NGOs, business start-ups, etc.), and

  • Develop renewable energy and energy efficiency projects, built upon policies adopted through student initiatives, employing industrial capacities fostered within the innovation centers.

Membership
SolarQuest® is inviting nations to substantiate their commitment to the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy by joining the Renewable Nations. A meeting of Charter Members is scheduled to adopt a joint declaration and launch the international Green Earth Corps.

The Transition from Fossil Fuels to Renewables
The key recommendation of the IEA Alternative Policy Scenario is a transition to energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies to replace fossil fuel-based electric power generation which accounts for 90% of targeted carbon emissions reduction....
