Providing modern energy services to the developing world is a monumental challenge, as 80% of the global population resides in these regions yet uses only 20% of the world's energy. This episode features a discussion between Ashvin Dayal from The Rockefeller Foundation and Robert Stoner, Deputy Director at the MIT Energy Initiative, on how to potentially double global energy production to meet this demand. They explore strategies for increasing energy access affordably while minimizing environmental impacts.
