Solar Power Surpasses Coal and Gas in Cost for Climate‑Vulnerable Nations

WHY IT MATTERS

The cost advantage could drive investment in solar plants in vulnerable regions, lowering emissions and boosting local economies.

What happened

A new cost analysis shows solar power can outprice coal and gas for the 74 members of the Climate Vulnerable Forum, indicating a shift in energy economics. The finding suggests that the United States could see accelerated growth in its solar manufacturing sector as demand rises in these countries. This development may reduce the need for new coal and gas infrastructure, helping to meet climate targets.
