%X Slowing and eventually reversing the growth in global greenhouse gas emissions will require among other initiatives, the large-scale use of renewable energy technologies for production of thermal energy, electricity, and fuels. The Global Environment Facility (GEF)is committed to supporting the use of renewable energy technologies on an unprecedented scale throughout the world. The lack of reliable and sufficiently detailed and easily used solar and wind energy resource data is a primary obstacle to both public-sector and private-sector investments in renewable energy applications in the developing world. Thus there is a significant need to develop refined estimates of these resources world-wide, and to incorporate the information into a Geographic Information Systems (GIS)framework that will support effective regional and national planning, and prudent renewable energy investment decisions. Over the next several decades large-scale applications of wind electric and solar electric technologies could grow to several hundred thousand megawatts. By 2008 the European Wind Energy Association expects 70,000 MWe of wind electric capacity to be in place globally. The great majority is expected in Europe and the United States, despite of the enormous and growing potential in the developing world. Similarly, the potential applications of photovoltaic technologies are expected to continue to grow robustly (>30/year), with market breakthroughs as installed system prices fall below ca. US- 4 - 6 per watt over the coming decade. Solar thermal power plants may also achieve large-scale commercial.
