1. Pathways towards universal access to electricity in West Africa : Case study of Mali and Senegal
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : Despite the vast solar potential in both Mali and Senegal, the electricity access in both countries remains one of the lowest in the world. The main problem is represented by the disparity between rural and urban settlements. In Senegal, the electricity access for rural areas was lower than 50%, while in Mali was around 35%. LÄS MER
2. Evaluation of mini-grid versus stand-alone projects: a tool for decision-making on household connections in last-mile rural electrification projects
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : Electrification of isolated rural areas in developing countries is a key action for the total eradication of energy poverty. A growing number of authors argue that this electrification should be done with distributed energy systems that combine different renewable energy sources, rather than trying to reach these communities with grid extensions.

3. The socio-economic impact of mini-grid usage in Kenya : A qualitative case study in the rural areas of Kisii and Nyamira
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Today, sub-Saharan Africa accounts for 75% of the world population without access to electricity which corresponds to over 500 million people. One strategy to reduce this number and provide access to electricity for more people, is to install mini-grids. LÄS MER
4. Geospatial Optimisation Methods for Mini-grid Distribution Networks : MSc Sustainable Energy Engineering (SEE)
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : In 2019, 770 million people worldwide lived without electricity. As many as 490 million people could be electrified with 210,000 mini-grids by 2030. Obtaining information for decision-making is crucial to determine the viability of such a project. LÄS MER
5. Promoting women’s empowerment through access to electricity : a case study of the mini-grid project in a rural village in Myanmar
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; Lunds universitet/LUMID International Master programme in applied International Development and ManagementSammanfattning : Men and women have different energy needs, and the lack of access to electricity could be negatively affecting women more than men by reason of women’s typical gender norms in a society. However, previous studies and projects’ approach rarely recognize the gender dimension on energy. LÄS MER
