The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED)

published a new opinion paper recently

on how to provide low-carbon energy

to the world’s poorest people.

This Opinion discusses how business can deliver

low-carbon technologies to the ‘bottom billion’

and support sustainable development by working more
closely with government agencies, development practitioners and local communities in designing and delivering products and services.
According to the opinion paper Market based Failure to understand local needs and preferences results in inappropriate goods and services and low uptake.
