To achieve global net zero targets, we must act together. The Global South holds immense potential for renewable energy development, essential for a sustainable future no longer dependent on fossil fuels for economic prosperity. But how do we unlock this potential and learn from success?
This webinar explores recent research from Oxford University investigating the critical challenges, insights and opportunities for both large developers and local champions to drive this transition. Building on this, we will reveal new data identifying renewables champions at the country level, and the barriers and drivers of high capacity over time.
