我們如何將新技術與最佳政策實踐結合起來，幫助發展中國家實現電氣化？
巴黎氣候協議的簽署國致力於實現雄心勃勃的減排目標。任何人和所有人的成功都需要一些非常繁重的工作。該目標需要整合可再生能源和存儲、智能能源系統和持續使用的化石燃料方面的進步。丹·卡門 (Dan Kammen) 的伯克利研究小組與州監管機構合作，為加州制定了一條嚴格的分步路徑，以實現其自身的排放目標。他的研究表明，需要大力轉向電力並遠離化石燃料和生物燃料。與此同時，13 億人——佔世界人口的 15%——仍然缺乏電力，他們對電力不斷增長的需求將提高——而不是降低——全球溫度。卡門說，解決方案必須是本地的。他的團隊領導了一項現場測試，以衡量廣泛使用更清潔、更高效的爐灶所帶來的環境效益和節能效果。在東非，新穎的現收現付小型太陽能設備正在推動世界上能源獲取的最快可持續增長。 Kammen 在這些努力中看到了巨大的希望，將新技術與最佳實踐結合起來，為那些沒有電力的人提供電力，並為其他所有人“綠色化”。

How do we bring together new technologies with best policy practices to help electrify the developing world?
Signatories to the Paris climate accord committed to ambitious emissions-cutting goals. Success for any and all will require some very heavy lifting. The goal requires integrating advances in renewable energy and storage, smart energy systems and on-going fossil fuel use. Working with state regulators, Dan Kammen’s Berkeley research group has mapped a rigorous step-by-step pathway for California to reach its own emission goal. His research has revealed the need for a dramatic shift to electricity and away from both fossil and biofuels. Meanwhile, 1.3 billion people – 15 percent of the world population – still lack electricity, and their growing demand for it would raise – not lower – global temperatures. The solution, Kammen says, must be local. His group leads a field test to measure the environmental benefits and energy savings of widespread use of cleaner, more efficient cook stoves. In East Africa, novel pay-as-you-go small, solar devices are powering the fastest sustainable increase in energy access in the world. Kammen sees great promise in these efforts to bring together new technologies with best practices to electrify those who don’t have power and to “green it” for everybody else.
