PROJECT PRESENTATIONAREA - http://arcticrenewableenergy.org/
BACKGROUND• Endorsed project of the Arctic Council’s Sustainable
Development Working Group
• Co-led by U.S., Canada and GCI
• Online Atlas that will catalog renewable energy data from all 8 Arctic countries
• To contribute to sustainable development and healthy, resilient communities
• Overlay existing energy generation capabilities to allow easy visualization of localized supply and demand
• Showcase Arctic community stakeholders discussing successes and challenges found in developing clean energy projects
DELIVERABLESAREA enhances knowledge of the best practices and local adoption of renewable energy within the Arctic region by sharing via http://arcticrenewableenergy.org/:
• Renewable Energy Atlas – including Wind, Hydro, Solar Thermal, Geothermal, Biomass, Tidal
• Community Energy Production, Consumption and Efficiency Database
• Best Practices Guide for Remote Community Renewable Energy Integration and Efficiency
• Community Energy Stories – Videos profiling local energy projects, challenges and opportunities
