A comprehensive analysis of the transition to renewable energy reveals profound economic benefits that extend far beyond environmental considerations. @samfankhauser.bsky.social
How are emerging economies leading a renewable-energy revolution?
Renewable energy is booming across emerging economies, where the economic viability of wind and solar power has made them the obvious choice in most national and regional contexts. More importantly, the rapid shift in renewable-energy economics is not only saving developing countries money but could also deliver substantial financial gains in the coming years.
