About AMEE

The Moroccan Agency for Energy Efficiency (AMEE) is a strategic public institution, intervening on the entire value chain of the energy efficiency, sustainable mobility and clean production sector in industry.

Its mission is to contribute to the implementation of government policy action plans in order to exploit the significant potential in energy saving in the various socio-economic sectors, thus aiming at reducing energy dependence and preserving the environment.

On the other side, RCREEE is an intergovernmental organization mandated by its 17 Arab member states to lead renewable energy and energy efficiency initiatives and expertise to increase Arab states' share of tomorrow's modern energy solutions.

About  RCREEE

The Regional Center for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (RCREEE) is an independent, non-profit regional organization that aims to enable and increase the adoption of renewable energy and energy efficiency practices in the Arab region. RCREEE teams up with regional governments and global organizations to initiate and lead dialogues, strategies, technologies and capacity development on clean energy policies to increase the share of Arab states in the energy of tomorrow.

RCREEE was established on the basis of the Cairo Declaration which was signed in June 2008 by government representatives from ten Arab countries. The declaration set out the following two fundamental objectives for the establishment of the centre:

1. Disseminate the implementation of cost-effective renewable energy and energy efficiency policies, strategies and technologies in the Arab region.

2. Increase the share of renewable energy and energy efficiency products and services in the Arab region and their share of the global market.
