Policy transfer for renewable energy penetration: Peru, Thailand and Uganda

This research paper examines the process of 'policy transfer' for renewable energy adoption using case studies from Peru, Thailand, and Uganda, concluding that the process is a complex, iterative interaction between national and international actors rather than a simple adoption of policies from one country to another.

• The authors find that policy transfer is not a simple act of a 'borrower' country adopting policies from a 'lender' country, but is instead a complex process involving interactions between various national and international actors to determine the outcome.
• Policy transfer is influenced by international developments and experiences, specifically those in the EU, but domestic issues are also critical in adapting these policies to local contexts.
• The process of policy transfer is described as a continuous, iterative learning process that allows policies to evolve over time, rather than being a single event.
