Abstract
This paper uses Qualitative
Comparative Analysis (QCA) to validate the theory of change
developed for an evaluation of renewable energy strategies,
identifying pathways for scaling up RE in a variety of
different contexts. QCA was used to translate qualitative
judgements into quantitative information, triangulating
findings from other methods and helping to draw conclusions
on how best to meet global energy goals established by the
international community. The analysis also helped identify
three specific pathways through which precondition barriers
could be addressed to overcome challenges facing the
successful achievement of the clean energy transition.
