Breaking Barriers: How the Global South is Leading the Renewable Energy Transition
Imagine a future where the leaders of clean energy aren't the world's richest nations, but those once overlooked—where solar panels illuminate remote villages and wind farms power bustling cities. This future isn't distant; it's unfolding across the Global South right now. In the sun-drenched deserts of Africa, solar farms are rising where there was once barren land. In the wind-swept coasts of Latin America, turbines are harnessing forces that have long danced over untouched waters. Across the Global South, innovation is shattering expectations, proving that clean energy is not just a luxury for wealthy nations—it's a necessity, and it's happening now. Countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America are leveraging abundant natural resources—solar in the Sahara, wind along coastal regions, and geothermal in volcanic belts—to create powerful, decentralized energy systems. Consider Kenya, one of the world’s leaders in geothermal energy production. W...
