I’m very interested to see how countries like Pakistan can lead the way in the clean energy revolution out of a necessity for cheap electricity rather than a desire for clean power.
Their electric grid and economy is such that they can optimize around solar rather than trying to force solar to fit into their existing system. Necessity is the mother of invention, and places like Pakistan will probably be able to teach us all a thing or two about how to develop economies around the Sun.
What is got from this is: humans’ lack of foresight coupled with the greed of corporations leaves poor people struggling to get basic necessities, so they’re turning to solar in larger than expected numbers in some places.
