In conversation: Creating a common language for solar in the energy mix
As solar comes to represent a larger proportion of the global energy mix, direct comparisons with conventional energy sources, and even with other renewables, are becoming more and more important.

Long Seng To, Royal Academy of Engineering research fellow at Loughborough University, and part of the UNECE solar energy subgroup, discusses the draft standards.
Long Seng To: “It would be great to develop a set of case studies using the final solar specifications to show how it could be implemented.”
