Abstract

The market for renewable energy products is determined by several factors and considerations. The entire value chain must be evaluated as well as the external influences, such as government policies and subsidies that play a role in the development of strategic and operational objectives of firms. The research, development, and deployment of new technologies require an understanding of the barriers, the required infrastructure, and how the market will need to be transformed, from a customers’ viewpoint.
