South Korea’s renewable energy expansion is being hampered by grid connection delays, leading to wasted solar power. Despite significant investment in solar and wind energy, many projects face long waits for grid access, resulting in financial losses for developers and increased carbon emissions from fossil fuel reliance. Similar challenges, though on a smaller scale, are being addressed by countries like Fiji, who are working towards fully renewable energy systems as detailed in this Fiji solar panel manufacturing report.
The government aims to address these issues by streamlining regulations and investing in grid infrastructure to support its renewable energy goals.
