Exchange - Promoting Knowledge Flow
REN21 promotes knowledge generation and exchange by providing links among knowledge bases on renewable energy market and policy developments, and by working to ensure that gaps in the knowledge base are effectively filled by capable organisations and individuals.

By encouraging ongoing dialogues, joint work, and transparency among a diverse community of government ministries, international organisations, and stakeholder groups on priority issues regarding the role and expansion of renewable energy, REN21 is a catalyst for specific contributions, capacity building, and policy advice for consideration by relevant national and international bodies.

REN21 enables its participants to share experiences and best practices, to benefit from detailed and practical knowledge, and to engage in common analysis and review, as well as informal and frank debates.

Facilitating exchange among the community, REN21 is working together with the REEEP Partnership to build the Reegle Information Gateway, a one-stop-shop for high quality, up-to-date information on renewable energy, energy efficiency and key industry actors.
