The strategic deployment of renewable energy can be
a useful tool in addressing the problem of under
employment without necessarily compromising the
desirable features of energy supply. Yet, the capacity
for developing countries to adopt renewable energy
is not without challenges, two important challenges
developing countries have with adopting renewable
energy are technology and policy.
When it comes to technology, the deployment and
choice of renewable energy technologies can
significantly determine the building of an all-
inclusive strategy towards additional sustainable
economic growth. Technological innovation and
capacity in renewable energy result from wide-
ranging factors, such as technological capability of a
country, market conditions that favor adaptive
learning, and innovation-friendly regulation. Thus
far, the emerging challenge with the adoption of
renewable energy technologies for developing
countries is whether low-income developing
countries are capable of securing technological

transfer and the diffusion as well as create an
enabling environment for the development of
domestic renewable energy technologies.
Equally important as the choice of technology is the
fact that the renewable energy market is also a policy-
driven market. Very crucial in the renewable energy
market is the introduction, implementation and
execution of support policies that are important
determinants of how well the renewable energy
market develops. The choice of policy instruments
will need to reflect the objectives of the developing
country according to its priorities regarding
economic development, environmental protection
and socio-economic structure. In choosing
technology and policy, these considerations are
