Pushing the envelope on renewable energy
The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) published and presented a special report for the Asian Regional Policy Dialogue (ARPD), which took place on September 7, 2016 during Global Green Growth Week (GGGWeek2016). The Pushing the Envelope on Renewable Energy report assesses why and how some countries within Asia (referred to in this report as Target Countries) have achieved success in attracting RE investment, what are the critical barriers to furthering renewable energy (RE) deployment, and the policy measures and practical interventions that may help to overcome these barriers. The report also highlights how lower technology costs, increased competitiveness of RE, and improved energy storage solutions are making transitioning to RE a reality and a priority.
