2019 Arab Future Energy Index (AFEX) Report
The Arab Future Energy Index (AFEX) is the first Arab index dedicated to tracking low carbon sustainable energy trends towards 2030 and has been produced on an annual basis since 2015 by UNDP and the Regional Center for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, a specialized entity affiliated to the League of Arab States. Referred to by some as the region’s “energy HDR”, AFEX monitors and analyzes trends across the region on the road to 2030, and ranks countries annually against a set of 28 indicators across areas of institutional capacity, policy frameworks, market structures and innovative finance.
