The researchers calculated that the average price of solar in the Middle East has been declining steadily over the past decade, and the average price of solar power is falling.

However, solar power has also become less abundant at the lower cost of renewables. In 2011, the average price for solar was $8.50 per watt, compared with $9.99 in 2010. For electricity from solar, the price of a kilowatt-hour was $30.

In addition, the average rate of return on renewable energy investments in the region has been falling; in 2010, renewable energy investment accounted for just 6.5% of the region's resources; by 2012 it had fallen to just 6.5%.

According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the world's sixth-largest producer of oil, demand for renewable energy came from countries like Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar.

In 2010, the FAO estimated that, in the year 2030, the world's oil reserves would peak at the US$2.2 trillion price tag; in 2011, the price tag would be $3.7 trillion.

This does not include the cost of developing new solar, wind, biomass, and other renewable sources, as well as the cost of building new ones or installing them; those costs can be as low as $70 to $90 per megawatt-hour.

Solar Power's decline from $4.5 million in 2010 to $2.65 million in 2012 is a big reason why this project has continued to decline.

It's also the reason why solar power is a huge opportunity for the Middle East and for the world outside of the Middle East. It's the combination of the many technologies available and the unique nature of the renewable energy economy.

One of the world's most dynamic and highly educated regions has made a huge contribution to the development of renewable energy. But this has yet to translate into a significant increase in the price of solar power. It's also why solar power continues to be the most expensive energy resource in the world.

However, solar is gaining popularity. In 2009, solar energy was valued at $30 per watt, up from $10 in 2010, and up from $7 in 2001. The average annual net energy use in the region is up by nearly half a percent since the mid-1990s.

Another big reason solar is gaining popularity for the region is because solar energy is also getting smaller: in 2009, the annual energy consumption for solar energy was less than
