Porto, Portugal, December 24, 2010 --(PR.com)-- On behalf of Alcor, a Tunisian consulting firm, MEGAJOULE organises a 3 day event for members of the Tunisian National Agency for Energy Conservation (ANME).

The event will take place from the 10th of January until the 12th of January and is financed by the United Nations Development Programme.
The programme of Monday the 10th of January will be divided into a political and a technical session. The first session will cover political topics regarding wind energy, the environmental and energy policies of the European Union and the Portuguese institutional framework for renewable energy. This session will be chaired by Ben Backwell, senior correspondent at Recharge News. The technical session will be hosted by Ricardo Guedes, MEGAJOULE executive board member and founder and the main focus will be on wind resource assessment and its complexity.
