Developed countries have created the ground work while developing nations see solar energy as a catalyst for change. society. with diffic ulties, with financial constraints being one of the most daunting. The high ini tial cost renewable energy source.
The adoption of household solar panels would allow for a leapfrogging from traditional to modern energy sources (van Benthem, 2015). This concept is particularly important within the framework of developing countries, partly skipping the step of grid investment, which is quite costly and delays the transition to clean energy adoption.
Nearly 50 developing countries have so far adopted solar PV. Feed-in tariff policies, which accelerate investment by offering producers favorable long-term contracts, are the most extended form of solar PV support. For instance, in Uganda, FITs have attractive prices, which have boosted the country’s renewable market and local economy.
