I was just reading about it this past week - The Economist also published a very bullish series of articles on the exponential growth in solar power generation and how cheap and abundant energy will transform the world.

This is a great article as well on recent progress on solar costs

Thanks for sharing this insightful read! It's fascinating to see how rapid advancements in solar technology are driving down costs significantly. This progress not only paves the way for widespread renewable energy adoption but also brings us closer to a more sustainable and resilient future.
