UNIDO, SIDS DOCK and the Stimson Center Alliance for a Climate Resilient Earth (ACRE) will be launching the Global Ocean Energy Alliance (GLOEA), an initiative supported by the Governments of Austria and Norway under the Global Network of Regional Sustainable Energy Centres Program (GN-SEC).

The GLOEA will address the needs of SIDS and coastal developing countries, particularly LDCs, to access ocean energy technology, finance and expertise. These countries have great potentials and the technology offers opportunities to spur their economic diversification efforts and aspirations towards a blue and green economy. Ocean energy is a promising tool to promote inclusive and sustainable industrial development in SIDS and coastal developing countries in the long-run.

The event will also feature a presentation on the 1.5 MW Floating Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Platform "Dominique", which is being developed with support of SIDS DOCK and UNIDO under a GEF/GCF funded project in Sao Tome and Principe.
