Abstract:

One of the most significant events that I have been associated with this month was the release of IPCC’s Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation. This report was originally requested by the German Government and was resisted by some countries initially (whom I would prefer not to identify), but in the end the entire Panel agreed to its production, and the German Government provided significant resources to make it happen.
