Enhanced international co-operation

G8 leaders invited IEA to help activate dynamic worldwide networks for energy technology research and development. Building on its existing “Implementing Agreement” programmes, the IEA is linking with the international business community, with policy makers, researchers and other stakeholders in many countries.

It is working to enhance awareness of existing research, development and deployment networks and to facilitate broader participation. For this purpose the IEA has created the NEET Initiative (Networks of Expertise in Energy Technology). As part of the dialogue, the NEET team has organised workshops and high-profile presence at major international events between mid-2006 and 2008. Read about the NEET Initiative.
