Abstract

The study adopted a set of work strategies, which express the 
logical approach that is adopted and followed to help achieve the 
goals. Among those strategies:
Major solar energy projects need to be co-financed by the public 
sector because of their learning stages and because of start-up 
costs and cost differentials for a specific period. Thus, only a 
technology with a low carbon emission rate and a low cost can be 
acquired for a long time. Given the social and political interest in 
providing permanent energy and the expansion that contributes to 
energy security, joint government funding can be justified -
because project implementation is not possible when the risk is 
due to private companies alone.
