Renewable Energy : Evaluation of the World Bank Group’s Support for Electricity from Renewable Energy Resources, 2000-2017

The Clean Energy Transition—the pathway for decarbonizing global energy—is essential to foster inclusive and sustainable growth while addressing climate change. Based on EIA forecasts, IEG estimates that annual global financing for RE needs to double, from $300 billion to $600 billion (2017 US$) to...
