The Solar Water Heating TechScope Market Readiness Assessment was developed as part of the Global Solar Water Heating (GSWH) Market Transformation and Strengthening Initiative.

This report uses the TechScope methodology to analyze the SWH enabling environments of six Latin American countries: Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Paraguay and PerĂş. This report does not detail the TechScope methodology and is intended to be read alongside the original SWH TechScope Market Readiness Assessment report (UNEP, January 2014).
