In 2009, Wandee Khunchornyakong, an enterprising woman in Thailand, wanted to find out how to add renewable solar power to her local electrical grid. She went to a government office to find out more information. There, she found permits for solar installations just begging for people to take advantage of them. She picked one up but a government clerk told her, “Please, take more. No one wants them.” So she did. When she left the office, she took almost three dozen solar permits with her.
