During the Lebanon Grand Energy Event 2025 (24–26 September),
British Ambassador to Lebanon Hamish Cowell launched yesterday,
with the Minister of Energy and Water Joe Saddi, Lebanon's
National Renewable Energy Action Plan (NREAP 2025–2030).
Since 2024, the UK partnered with the Lebanese Centre for Energy
Conservation to provide targeted technical support to help update
the NREAP, a strategic roadmap that outlines Lebanon's renewable
energy ambitions and implementation priorities for the coming
years.
The UK's support reflects its broader global leadership on
climate action and its dedication to helping partner countries
unlock sustainable energy solutions. By working closely with
Lebanon's energy institutions, the UK aims to foster innovation,
policy reform, and enable investment and finance in renewable
energy technologies.
The updated NREAP will serve as a cornerstone for Lebanon's short
and long-term renewable energy goals, supporting the country's
resilience, energy independence, and climate commitments.
Following the launch, British Ambassador to Lebanon said:
The UK is proud to support Lebanon in shaping a cleaner, more
sustainable future. The UK's technical support to Lebanon's
updated National Renewable Energy Action Plan is a vital step
toward unlocking Lebanon's energy transition, and addressing the
challenges that stand in the way of progress.
The NREAP 2025-2030 is not just a plan—it is a commitment to the
Lebanese people and environment. With the UK's support, Lebanon
is equipped to overcome obstacles, accelerate transition to
renewable energy and explore strategic partnerships for effective
implementation.
