The index of political compatibility takes into account sectoral plans, international agreements, and national legislation. The index of barriers considers technical, institutional, financial, and social barriers. Priority mitigation measures. This ranking example uses the methodology developed by ECOENERGY (2000) in Ecuador. Results of the ranking of the priority mitigation measures: Substitution of fossil fuel for biofuel is highly compatible with political instruments, but there are severe barriers, especially concerning technical capacity and coordination between institutions. Biogas is also very compatible politically, but has even higher (technical and financial) barriers. Improved cooking stoves and saving fuel wood is moderately compatible with political instruments, with small barriers. This is a viable opportunity, as obstacles to implementation can be overcome with little investment and management. The measure also has a big impact on human health, particularly for women. The measure can help contribute to reduced use of primary forest material, reduce pressures on ecosystems and increase carbon sinks. Rural photovoltaic systems have low political compatibility with high technical barriers. Implementation of wind energy has a slightly higher political compatibility, but very high technical (including natural wind conditions and irregularity) and financial barriers.
