Big wind & solar can reduce costs and help build low-carbon power systems across Asia and Africa.
Renewable energy is a critical component of any long-term energy plan. Solar in particular has enormous potential in frontier and emerging markets, but is currently under-exploited.
Utility-scale wind and solar could generate abundant electricity to power economies across Africa and Asia, but they face huge barriers of available financing and integration into national grids. At the same time, commercial customers are increasingly turning to distributed solar, creating both big opportunities and new risks for grids and utilities.
The Hub translates the latest data and research on the cost, technology, and policy issues that constrain solar and wind power into insights policymakers and funders can use to deploy bigger and faster.
