"This book investigates the role of law in enabling and addressing the barriers to the development of Off-Grid Renewable Electricity (OGRE). The limited development of OGRE is ascribed to a host of social, economic and legal barriers including the problem of initial capital costs, existing subsidies for conventional electricity and lack of technological and institutional capacity. Through the analyses of selected case studies from Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, this book discusses the typical barriers to the development of OGRE from a global perspective and examines the role of the international climate change instruments in addressing them. Drawing together the lessons learned from the case studies, the book offers robust recommendations on how the development of OGRE will support the goal of achieving universal access to low carbon, reliable and sustainable electricity globally. This volume will be of great interest to students, scholars, policy makers, investors and practitioners in the fields of energy law and policy, climate change, and renewable energy development"-- Provided by publisher.
