Renewable energy also offers options for energy access through decentralized applications. On-grid and off-grid renewable energy markets arc expanding, as private sector participation increases. Renewable energy technologies are also becoming more affordable and investment in renewable energy has rapidly increased to the point that when large hydropower, investment in terms of dollars and capacity supersedes conventional energy (Frankfurt School-UNEP Centre/Franfurt School of Finance and Management, 2017). New economic sectors have been developed, while jobs arc being created in the manufacturing, distributing, installing, operating, and servicing renewable energy.
