How solar energy became cheap : a model for low-carbon innovation Gregory F. Nemet - New York, NY : Routledge, 2019. - xxii, 238 p. : ill. ; 23 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Solar energy is a substantial global industry, one that has generated trade disputes among superpowers, threatened the solvency of large energy companies, and prompted serious reconsideration of electric utility regulation rooted in the 1930s. One of the biggest payoffs from solar’s success is not the clean inexpensive electricity it can produce, but the lessons it provides for innovation in other technologies needed to address climate change.
