Description
Description
This is an existing partnership that has demonstrated an effective institutional arrangement as a platform where PSIDS and its developments partners, regional agencies and the private sector come together on an annual basis to share best practices, to foster joint activities and minimize costs and discuss measures to ensure consistency of effort and the avoidance of duplication. Benefits of this partnership to SIDS1)A workable institutional development for the promotion of sustainable energy for all in SIDS;2)An effective coordination mechanism that ensures best use of donor resources; and 3)A mechanism for the sharing of best practices in the energy sector of SIDS
Implementation of the Project/Activity

This is an existing partnership.

Capacity

-One best practice is identified, disseminated and replicated through the various networks of the PEAG members;-Key national, regional and multilateral players in the energy sector of PSIDS get together annually to discuss matters that would benefit PSIDS energy sector development

Governed

This partnership is under the umbrella of the Forum Leaders-adopted Framework for Action on Energy Security in the Pacific with its vision of An Energy Secure Pacific: 2010 - 2020 (FAESP). The FAESP is based on the premise of a Many-Partners-One-Team and a Whole-of-Sector approach. Two coordinating mechanisms have been established to ensure successful implementation of the FAESP. The Pacific Energy Oversight Group is made up of CROP agencies only while the PEAG is the consultative platform for the PEOG, PSIDS, development partners and the industry. The Secretariat of the Pacific Community is the lead regional energy agency and has been tasked with providing the secretariat to both the PEOG and PEAG.
