Not quite sure about international effort or lack there of, I cant offer insight there, but in relation to this article itself, it's certainly evident that there is an international involvement.

At the invitation of the German Federal Government, representatives from more than 60 countries met in Berlin earlier this month to discuss the founding of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), an intergovernmental organization that will exist to exclusively promote the adoption of renewable energy worldwide.
I think this is a positive development, even if it might be somewhat overdue. Time will tell I guess.
