I sometimes do wonder if some comparatively less developed countries like India and China may actually be better placed than much of the more developed west, to embrace renewable energy, such as solar, because much of their comminutes technology bases are still comparatively under developed. Thus solar could actually enhance such communities that may otherwise have less reliable power resources of more limited availability.
Sure city dwellers may be used to a higher standard of power provision along with other services, but perhaps the more rural and regional communities particularly those of less developed nations, may actually be able to leapfrog some of the limitations of perhaps more restricted services to their communities of fossil fuel based power supply technologies, by application of renewable energy technology like solar, without observing any significant degradation of service and in fact ,may even see an improvement in quality and reliability of service provision from renewable energy technology, such as solar energy etc... compared to perhaps the more limited access they may have had to more conventional fossil fuel or nuclear based energy supplies.
Essentially Solar energy can help with more geographically dispersed communities, many of which may not be accustomed to reliable power supplies to the western standard and so the more limited capacity factors with renewable energy like solar PV, less so Solar Thermal with storage, may actually work for such communities and help provide them with a technological spring board to greater QOS provision over time at a more accelerated rate than might otherwise have been achieved, if they had simply waited until more conventional power services were affordable for their more dispersed communities. They way things are heading with global demand for fossil fuels and nuclear energy, such more conventional technologies may never be affordable for these types of communities due to the time cost curve for such energy.
