The dynamic nature of renewable energy markets, technologies, and cost reductions continuing, we can look to the future with a very different perspective than what we have seen in the past decade. The purpose of this report is to show the range of credible possibilities for the future of renewable energy. It does not present just one vision of the future, but rather a full and objective range of visions, based on the collective and contemporary thinking of many. What is our current thinking about the future of renewable energy? What is the range of credible possibilities for that future? This report is a \u201cmosaic\u201d of insight into these questions. The report is intended as a tool for education and discussion, and as an objective framework for thinking about the future.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”large” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Download” url=”http:\/\/www.ren21.net\/future-of-renewables\/global-futures-report\/”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”accent-color” custom_height=”40″]
