DESCRIPTION:'Rapid innovation and growth in renewable energy'\, a talk by M
 IT's Jessika Trancik \n\nJessica Trancik\n\nRenewable energy technologies 
 have sustained high growth rates over the past 30 years [1]\, with solar a
 nd wind energy production growing at roughly 30% per year\, due to a combi
 nation of technology cost improvement and public policy incentives. This p
 resentation will share new research that has uncovered reasons for these u
 nprecedented fast rates of improvement\, and has probed the prospects for 
 renewable energy to produce a significant share of global electricity. Thi
 s is a critical time in the development trajectories of clean energy techn
 ologies\, and in global efforts to mitigate climate change. As the data su
 ggest\, a technology transition may be within reach. Read more: Trancik\,
