We may look back on 2016 as the year when the new low carbon, distributed energy model for power and transport began to overtake the fossil fuel, centralized, power generation model.
As well as there being dramatic cost reductions for both wind and solar power generation at scale, on 4 November the historic COP21 Paris climateagreement comes into force. This is happening almost four years ahead of the time (2020) scheduled at the COP21 meeting in December 2015. It foreshadows dramatic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and hence fossil fuel use.
