Large-Scale Deployment of Renewables for Electricity Generation
比较了资源评估，指出可再生能源足以大规模部署，但面临市场结构、不公平竞争等障碍，即使消除这些障碍，技术锁定问题仍存在，建议战略部署与研发支持相结合。
Comparisons of resource assessments suggest that sufficient renewable energy resources are available to allow for large-scale deployment of renewable energy technologies. Economic analysis identifies barriers to the adoption of renewable energy sources resulting from (i) market structure, (ii) competition in an uneven playing field, and (iii) various non-marketplace barriers. However, even if these barriers are removed, the problem of ‘technology lock-out’ remains. The key policy response is strategic deployment coupled with increased R&D support to accelerate the pace of improvement through market experience. This paper suggests significant contributions from various technologies are possible, but does not assess their optimal or maximal market share.
