Structure of the paper:
After an initial introduction, in the first part of your paper
you should discuss the drivers of the renewable energy investment
story that we have reviewed in class, and any others that you think
are significant. We have discussed, or will discuss, in class the
following drivers. Each should be discussed under an
individual caption:
--global warming (also called climate change);
--pollution and its role in pushing investment into renewable
energy;
--comparative costs of renewable and fossil fuel
technologies;
--the amount of money likely to be in play;
--government regulations—national, state/regional, or municipal
and international agreements, such as that of Cop 21--including
taxes and subsidies which may favor (or disadvantage) investment in
renewable energy;
--the element of belief, sometimes called dreams, in major
investment shifts; -
--the potential role of millions of electric car owners as a
lobbying force to shift the world into a re-thinking of energy and
pollution;
--energy independence in the name of national defense.
