3.5. Political support
Without the creation of a favorable legal and regulatory framework RES will be condemned to remain a small niche market. Therefore, a key precondition for the development of REs is a strong political support through smooth bureaucratic application procedures. For example, clear and simple regulations about the licenses required for the building and operation of RE systems are a crucial necessity. All rules should be as simple as possible. Ideally, one comprehensive RES law should contain all the important provisions.
Table 4 gives a few examples of how the political support can play an essential role in RE integration and development.
To conclude, political support includes all the other types of supports such as, financial, legislative and fiscal supports. Indeed, the government is considered the primer actor to set the legal framework, the national targets, and pricing policies and take strategically decisions to support the development of REs.
