STUDY CLIMATE CHANGE, ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT SUSTAINABLE TRANSFORMATION OF ENERGY SYSTEMS IN MENA COUNTRIES Comparative Report Julia Terrapon-Pfaff, Sibel Raquel Ersoy March 2022 The Middle East and North ­Africa(MENA) Energy Transi­tion Phase Model was applied to analyse the transition pro­cess to renewable energy(RE) in ten MENA countries. The characteristics of the ener­gy sectors are analysed with regard to the role of renew­able and fossil energies in sup­ply and demand, the political framework conditions for en­ergy efficiency, the infrastruc­ture conditions, the develop­ment of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the govern­ance structures, and the social involvement and acceptance of the energy transition. The results are intended to stimulate discussion on future energy systems in the MENA region.
