Abstract :
Exploiting renewable energy sources makes sense on many levels: first as a response to the world?s reliance on fossil fuels and to reduce climate-changing emissions. But beyond that, more mature renewable generation technologies deployed in areas naturally blessed with abundant renewable resources are beginning to challenge traditional fuels for cost-effectiveness, even as subsidies for low-carbon generation are wound back.
