Few issues are more important globally than our ability to transition to green energy. Yet the path to securing energy from sustainable sources is not an easy one. In a four-part series for The Compass, Allan Little investigates the ‘inconvenient truths’ of transition in places from Iceland to Chile and the Democratic Republic of Congo. He reports on factors that hinder the green revolution, including the scramble for essential minerals such as lithium for batteries, the environmental damage that huge wind farms may cause, the vast cost of new infrastructures and, counter-intuitively, when countries have a surplus of green energy, how can they use it best?
