Author's note : Solar technology and global environmental justice: The vision and the reality

Roos, Andreas LU (2023)
Abstract
When most of us think of solar technology, we picture photovoltaic panels on sunny rooftops capturing clean energy for self-sufficient households. This vision suggests that increasing the installation of solar panels will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and encourage more democratic energy pathways. But the way solar technology relates to global environmental and social problems is actually very different.
