Three recent clean energy reports (about US, Europe, & APEC)


In recent weeks, there were two reports summarizing clean energy deployments in the United States and Europe, respectively.
In addition, the APEC secretariat published a report summarizing renewable energy policies implemented by Asian-Pacific countries.
I hope any of you get useful information from the reports.
